Cat - deeping moaning cry
Our cat is 17 years old and is in reasonable health for his age.
However, about a six months ago he started to emit this very deep moaning cry, almost a growl. He usually starts this when he comes through the cat flap back into the house, or perhaps in the middle of the night when nobody is around. Is this usual? Any ideas what this might mean? |

When she was about that age, my cat began doing this out of the blue. I of course immediately took her to the vet, thinking that she was in pain. She was in good health and they found no sign of any abnormality at all. When I asked why this sudden and unusual vocalization, the vet told me that sometimes as they get older cats get a little senile, and this is one of the ways this manifests. Kind of like they get forgetful and all of a sudden say "Where ARE youuuuuuuuu?" However, I have another cat who started doing this, and she had hurt her leg. She cried soulfully when she got in and out of the cat box. If kitty has not been to the vet, he needs to go, if only to set your mind at ease. These are the years cats can be at their sweetest and most loving. I know you want to be sure you have your furry kid as long as possible. |

He may have a hyperactive thyroid. Have him vet checked.
