Why does my cat meow so loud?

Answer 1

Could be due to the cat's age, whether it is an indoor/outdoor cat, wanting to play with you, but most often it is because the cat is exercising and honing its skills (jumping, prowling, pouncing, etc.).

Answer 2

This sounds like an acute intoxication, possibly with permethrin-based flea/tick medication. If the cat has recently been treated with such a product, you should immediately wash your cat with warm soapy water and then take your cat to the veterinarian for additional treatment.

Answer 3

Well i have had a lot of cats, and one time i had the sweetest calico. One day she came home and i could tell she was in a cat fight, and she was never the same after that, i hope this is not the case for your cat, good luck!

Answer 4

It depends on the age of your kitten, whether it has eaten a sufficient amount of food and drunk enough water, etc. It might be congested. If the kitten is 6 months or older it might be in a heat period (close to reproduction).Try working out why and when your cat is acting strangely.

Answer 5

The term "crazy" is a very subjective word - what may be crazy to others may be completely normal to a different set of individuals.

It is well known that cats have their "crazy half-hour" or "cat crazies" where they will hurtle around the house for no apparent reason - and then suddenly stop as soon as it began. This is really very much akin to a small child; children will often run around like mad just to release any pent-up energy, and it is very likely cats, especially kittens, do the same for the exact same reasons: To release pent-up energy and above all - to have fun! It also serves as a brilliant workout for them.

Kittens can often be confusing in this manner: One minute they are calm and cuddly, and the next they are all little teeth and claws and huge wide eyes. For some new kitten owners, this is where it stops being fun and because they think their kitten is "evil". In fact, it couldn't be more from the truth. Kittens play rough, and it doesn't matter if they are a fellow cat or a human as the playmate. They use their teeth and claws and can hurt if not trained properly. Kittens will often grow out of this phase, but many cats are still playful and will happily play with their owners if there isn't another feline companion to play with.

This is a far cry from a cat actually being crazy. Few cats have mental illnesses and often have a reason for behaving in a certain way - it is down to the owner to educate themselves about their beloved companion's behavior.

Answer 6

Usually that means that it's happy. My cat does that when he's happy. Also he will lick my hand and rub his head against me.

Answer 7

Cats meow as a way to communicate. If they meow, it could mean anything from I'm hungry to, let me out of this locked door!

Answer 8

some cats just love to run because they feel cooped up, this is their way of letting off steam.

Answer 9

It is hungry. It is asking to be fed.
