Long story short—Rexie is 2 1/2 yrs, got him at 3 1/2—4wks, unweaned, of course; and I am Mommie.—Shirley

Get him to the vet immediately. Percy started doing this just before he died of kidney failure. I had never had a sick cat before, and had never had a male cat before, so I didn’t know why he was yowling and I waited a couple of days to take him - and by the time I did it was too late.

ummm he’s been doing this since almost directly after the other cat was put down..... he’s a healthy weight and drinks enough water.... i swear he’s part siamese... well technically he’s part burmese... would this make a difference?—Kazzia

I will say Sugar has been much more vocal since Grant died. Also, my friend’s one cat went missing for three weeks. The other cat would howl every single night when they went to bed. I mean howl. The other cat was finally found and the howling stopped immediately. It could be a sign of grief and missing the other cat. But Iwould sure want to have a vet check just to make sure.—Karen

i did, cause i too thought there was something wrong with him. the vet tried some mild sedatives on him but it only partially worked so i stopped using them... i suppose i have to put up with it or get another cat, but my partner doesn’t want anymore pets... oh well... thanks for all the advice...—Kazzia

Siamese tend to vocalize a lot, and he could be missing his buddy. But if it is a change in behavior, that warrants a vet visit. Cats are masters at hiding their pain, so the first thing you should always do is check with your vet to rule out physical problems, and then once you’ve done that you can work on changing unwanted behavior.

BTW, drinking plenty of water doesn’t necessarily mean that the kidneys are OK - sometimes it is even a sign of kidney problems.

I’m sorry for your loss. Well then, if you know it’s not a physical problem then I would suggest any or all of the following;

1) Play with him a lot right before bed to tire him out.

2) Feed him right before you go to bed after 1)

3) Use ear plugs and a hepa filter or some other form of "white noise" after 1) and 2)
