Hi everyone,
I got a new addition today. He was found outside my work by a fellow
employee. He's about 2 years old, male, total tomcat.... he wasn't
neutered. I immediately got him neutered and brought him home. I currently
have two other males cats both neutered... one 8 years, one 4 years. The
new cat is in the spare bedroom with all amenities.
Here's the problem, the new guy will not stop howling and meowing. He is
EXTREMELY needy and loving. He loves to be around people. When I go in he
is all over me, bumping me with his head and just staring at me because he
loves so much.
BUT.... when I leave, all hell breaks loose. He will not stop howling and
meowing. He hears us walking around the house, and the cats sitting right
at his door don't help. He just really wants to be around everyone, and is
also very curious about my cats (my cats aren't so enthusiastic).
I need to sleep tonight. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can calm
his poor little heart????
Thanks so much,
Kelly

My first thought is to run out to the pet store and get yourself
some Feliway -- either the spray or the plug-in diffuser. This might
calm him a little.

Oh dear, he sounds as if he may have a lot of Siamese in him. I've
had one like that. You may not be able to quiet him down unless
someone moves into the guest room to sleep with him. You might be
able to get some sleep by putting him in a carrier on your bed.

.........wait a couple of weeks for the testosterone to diminish and he
should quit yowling. As for sleep, have no suggestions other than earplugs!

Well Oscar the meowing cat never did stop meowing and howling. I tried many
different things to get him to stop, including sleeping in the room with
him. Turns out what he is really meowing about is that he really wants to
see my other cats. Unfortunately, my cats aren't enthusiastic about this
idea. Oscar did not stop meowing the whole night.... from 5pm to 7am this
morning he never slept (and this is a cat that just had surgery
yesterday!!). I had one, maybe two hours of sleep. Needless to say I had
to call in sick today.
The whole plan with Oscar was to have him live here for 2 weeks, and then my
fiancee and I get our new house March 11 and we were going to move in and
slowly work on the new place and Oscar would come with us and live there
(along with the 4 year old neutered male). Well with the way Oscar is
howling, I'm afraid to report that I took him this morning to be boarded at
the local vet clinic until we gain access to the new house on March 11. I
cannot be kept up like this. I feel that the solution would be to give him
free run of the house, but this is not possible because I'm my cats will
freak and get their noses out of joint. This is not fair to them. I even
tried putting him in our basement, and his howls could still be heard all
over the house. I kept thinking "Okay, he has to stop soon because he has
to sleep". Nope...
This cat was so exhausted that he slept the whole car ride to the vet
hospital this morning. Poor thing. Fortunately, he is familiar with this
vet hospital because this is where he was quarentined for "claim" for a week
before I took him (I wanted to make sure he wasn't someone elses cat). He
gets a very big cage there and all the staff love him and we can go visit
whenever we like. I'm hoping these next couple weeks go quickly, because
boy did I feel guilty bringing him back there.
I talked to the vet and she said his howling could certainly be due to the
fact that he's still technically a Tomcat. It takes a while for all those
hormones to wear off. She assured me he would settle in just fine in the
new house.
What I will probably do is move in Oscar first, have him get used to a few
rooms without other cats around, and then move Harley (other boy) in when
the time is right.
<sigh>

.........If he comes back smelling like the vet hospital your other cats
won't like it. I'd keep him isolated in a room with some of your dirty
laundry so he'll get a more normal smell before you turn him loose in the
house. Sniffing him under the door will also give your cats time to get
used to an intruder in the house again. Try to let them work out their
differences on their own. I've found that the more I interfere, trying to
protect one cat or another, the worse it gets. There's going to be little
spats here and there. Amazing though how they can seem to want to kill each
other one minute and eat food next to each other the next.
