Okay for those of you who don't know, Jordan is over a year old, he's been with us for a year, he's neutered and we found him outside when he was 8 weeks old. He's been living a pampered life ever since.
Recently he started waking us up... at 4am. We don't get up til 6 or 7am so this is rather annoying. He just sits at the door and meows and meows and meows. He jumps up and tries to get into the closet (which makes a lot of noise because the door is on the tracks).
We don't know what to do... he used to wake us up so we started playing with him at night and feeding him wet food and then leaving dry food out so that there was no way he could be hungry... but apparently it's not hunger that's motivating.
Possibly related to this... he has a kind of separation anxiety. If I go into the bathroom to get ready, he'll sit outside the door and meow endlessly, jump up on the door and hit it. Same with any other room... if he knows I'm in there and can't get in, he'll get upset.
PLEASE tell me what to do, I can't go another day waking up at 4am!!
