thanks for the reply. And for saying he's beautiful! I think even he doesnt know what the issue is! he's always been very vocal, i think he just wants to walk around wake us all up and when he realises that isnt working he then gets upset as he cant go to the window. Ive just bought...

Just an update.. no progress. Playing every night and then feeding with a timed feeder right before bed time but he's still waking up at 5am. Cant actually cope with it any more :( Next step is some repellent on the toddlers door. And block off the window in there I doubt it will stop the...

Its great to get the opinions, thanks! sorry i wasnt being rude at all I just hadnt realised that I should have considered wet food. My breeder is really good so just followed that advice really but will definitely do some more reading. thanks again x

Oh dear I seem to have asked quite a polarizing question! I was only ever going by what the breeder advised me... I will do some more research. Thanks everyone x

ah fantastic, thanks so much for the reply! Im definitely going to do 10pm to try and delay his wake up and then will just try to watch out for the other times then and work it around that. Hate the thought of him being hungry but at the same time im hopeful if we can sort this bit out the...

Im looking into my cats overall health, given a few behavouir issues! He's an indoor ragdoll, aged 4 years old. I was advised by the breeder to give him Royal Canin indoor adult cat food which is out all day for him, and lots of water. Im moving to timed feeding now so just wanted to check...

Thank you so much for your reply! i really really appreciate it as we're at our wits end. Thats a good idea about making the window less appealing, we do have another window at the front of the house too in our room but he prefers the one in my toddlers room as he can see birds in next doors...

What are the best times to feed our cat throughout the day if we want him to have a play at about 8.30pm then food and bed at 10pm? (bed time with us, and to prevent more 5am wake ups!!) Ive been reading set feed times help to control behavouir but need to be 6 hours apart. So would that be...

hello I posted on here a while ago - and got some advice but it's since been removed! So I'm back and in need of help! My ragdoll (4yrs old) wakes at 5am/5.30am every morning meowing and sitting outside my toddlers room. He wants to get in there too look out of his bedroom window. The cat...

Thanks, i couldn't ever give him up I've had him from tiny and he's such a mummy's boy. I just need it to change quickly as my partner is getting even more fed up with it than me. I'm going to set a feeder for Bed time, 4.45am and then once in the day. And keep him busy with lots of toys. Will...

Brilliant thank you so much!! I'm not sure how much he weighs but we're due a trip to the vets so will get him weighed and check his food packet. Really hoping this works! Thanks so much x

Thanks so much for all the advice, I really appreciate it. I don't think the baby's habits have affected him as the baby has been in his own room and sleeping through for a while now. Will definitely try to play with him more (currently sourcing a cardboard box to put his toys in as that's...

Really hoping someone can help! I have a very demanding 4 year ragdoll cat, he's extremely vocal and loves fuss having always been a mummy's boy. the probem is that he's taken to waking up at 5am and walking around the room meowing. With a baby that now sleeps through the night this is getting...

Thanks so much. Really appreciate the help, glad I found this forum!! We already spend a lot of time in there with both of them - baby is in the bedroom with us and the cat often sleeps on our bed. It's like he announces his arrival into rooms but more so as I'm settling the baby. I just can't...

We have a 7 month baby and a 3yr old ragdoll. The cat is very vocal and has started bursting in and meowing as I'm putting the bang down to nap. Which wakes the baby I'm army wits end!!! I've tried 1) shutting him downstairs- he goes nuts 2) closing that door to the room and he scratches to...
