meows constantly
My 10 month old male cat meows constantly as he walks from room to room.
There are three cats in the home Chevy 10 month male, Sally 3 year female siamese, and Bill 21 year old male. This cat is much like a dog as he replies and or comes to me when his name is called. He listens to comands such as stay away from food while bill eat's and come here. he also has a fascination to anything Bob - shoes, shirts, pants. He sniffs them up like is was cat nip then lays on them. Any answers to - 1.Why does he meow constantly 2.Why does he like only my stuff not the wifes? Thanks much and Happy Holidays to all :-) |

Thanks much and Happy Holidays to all :-) Hi Bob, #1.) You might want to take him in for a check-up and have the vet check specfically for his hearing? He could be slowly losing it. Also you might want vet to do bloodwork on him which could detect any underlying problems. ML |

ML, you must work for a vet or have arelative in the field? If you read
the post entirley I stated the CAT can hear and comes when called...he is far from deaf or even a slight hearing problem. I am not posting here to create a chat..ONLY to get answers.

My cat meows purrs and makes all manner of funny noises. I think you cat is
just trying to communicate! Talk to him on a one to one basis. It may just be your undivided attention he seeks. My cat is a real chatterbox. We often have 'conversations'. But don't discuss politics! sarah |

Hi Sarah,
Your 100% correct! When I pick him up and snug with him he's quiet but as soon as he's down and in another room he is up and talking again. Confusing though...he doesn't come in here and talk and is always in another room away from other cats and people "sarah" wrote in message ... My cat meows purrs and makes all manner of funny noises.

Thanks to ALL that have replied and welcome more relative to topic. My severely hyperthyroid cat vocalized all the time until we got her treatment. As it turns out, excessive vocalization is a sympton of hyperthyroid. Untreated HT is no big deal unless you mind when your cat has a stroke. Yet another reason why a vet check is in order. Which is, by the way, an ANSWER and probably the best one to your asinine question. |

Untreated HT is no big deal unless you mind when your cat has a stroke. While vocalizing is a symptom of hyperthyroid, that would be extremely unlikely in a 10 month old cat.

Why was his question asinine? -- Only one reason: because he asked it here first instead of at the vets AND had no intention of taking the cat to the vet AND had a hissy when ML suggested he take the cat to the vet. This is a newsgroup for Christ's sake. |
