Hi, firstly I am sorry if this question has been asked already but I searched the forum & I could not find a similar issue.
Well here goes, I own a 3 year old male cat (fixed) called Tigger, I got him from the animal welfare as a 9 week old kitten, his mother was feral so I would guess he would be counted as feral. He is a house cat & has been very happy as far as I can tell. Recently however he has begun crying at night.
At first I thought it was I may have forgotten to put food & water down or to clean his litter box but this is not the case, he has toys to play with & I play with him everyday for at least an hour.
I work shift so I am in & out of the house at irregular times so maybe that is an issue???? The crying always happens when I am in bed so it is affecting my sleep, I have tried ignoring it to see if it is just him looking for attention but this definitely does not work.
Would anyone out there have any ideas as to why he is behaving like this, any help would be appreciated, I really need some sleep at night plus it is only a matter of time before the neighbours complain.
