Noisy cat...please help

I have a 16 year old Siamese that has been a house cat since she was born.
She accidently got out and was left out alone for a few hours. She's
decided that she prefers to be an outside cat. This is not an option!
She
doesn't know what cars are etc and I live on a busy street. There are
also
lots of stray cats in this area. It's not helping that I took in a stray
last year and she's permitted to come and go. My Siamese has begun crying
all night long! I haven't slept in days! Any of you who are familiar
with
Siamese know how loud they can be. There is nowhere in my house where I
can
escape the noise. Does anyone know what I can do with her??? I'm slowly
going insane. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

Play with her to tire her out during the day and then she may sleep at
night? Maybe if you kept the stray cat in at night too the Siamese cat may
calm down, although this may just mean that you have two noisy cats instead
of one :-)

Has she been quiet for the last 16 years?
Sounds like she been stocking up.

My siamese have several different voices:
1. pay attention to me!
2. feed me!
3. let me out!
4. I'm in heat! (before getting spayed.)
5. back off! (fur on end, tail blown out)

Which best describes her crying?

Thanks for the quick reply. The stray cat is always in at night. And I
work during the day. Although you have given me an idea...I was on
vacation
all summer....the crying has gotten worse since I went back to work last
week.

My Siamese has begun crying all night

Howling at night is a common symptom of a cat that is hyperthyroid, a
condition that happens in cats around 10 years of age and older. You
should take her to the vet and have her thyroid function tested.

"Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one
elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and
splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then
providence moves too. A whole stream of events issues from the decision,
raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and
material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his
way."
