Compared to dogs, cats like to meow more. Perhaps for this reason, some people choose quieter dogs over clingy cats. In fact, some cats are not that indiscriminately noisy, and some cats can stay quietly. But if usually quiet cats suddenly start meowing a lot, you should carefully observe their situation as there may be something abnormal.

Hunger

When a cat feels hungry and cannot find food to satisfy its hunger, it will meow. It does not express itself through language or actions like humans. Cats can only meow to get their owner’s attention and express their needs. If the cat becomes quiet after you give it food and doesn’t meow as much, then you have found the reason. However, if feeding the cat does not solve its need, you may need to consider other reasons, and possibly take the cat to see a doctor.

Seeking Attention

When cats feel bored, they will meow to attract their owner’s attention and want to play more with them. Everyone knows cats are clingy and seem to dislike even a little loneliness. Owners can spend more time accompanying their cats or playing with them. Sometimes, the cat feels satisfied just by being by your side. You can also buy some toys your cat likes to help it pass boring time.

Nervousness

Cats are very sensitive animals. They are used to their original family environment. Once a new member joins the family, it may cause the cat to feel uneasy. This could be because a new baby is added, a new pet comes in, or even relatives or friends visiting the home can make the cat nervous. If the cat meows frequently out of nervousness, the owner should give it more love and care to eliminate its anxiety.

Illness

If a cat feels unwell, it will meow, either because something is uncomfortable or due to aging and declining body functions, which can trigger frequent meowing. Owners should take cats that meow due to discomfort to see a veterinarian for timely treatment.

Additionally, cats also meow continuously during their estrus period or if frightened. Under normal circumstances, cats are still very well-behaved~~~
