I just don't know what to do about this meowing/howling problem that we have with Harley. I posted about this before & got some feedback about building an outdoor enclosure, but thats not going to happen before winter, and we need to keep him in during the winter.
He simply cannot be bored. We try to interact with him as much as possible, he always has food & water, he has a playmate - Bayley, a nice large house to play around in, toys.
He is ALWAYS at the doors trying to get outside. Always. He gets out about 2-3 times a day, because when I have my arms full with Landon and I come in from being outside with him, he'll always be sitting at the door. Most of the time it's in the evening and I've spent countless hours outside looking for him. He's always waking up my son at night, going into the rooms howling, in the hallways outside our rooms. It's just getting so old and really quite annoying
His meowling/howling is so loud, you can hear him no matter where he is in the house.
He's 5 years old, neutered and we've never had this issue before. I think if we take him outside more often, he'll want to be out more. He simply will not survive as an outdoor cat since he's been inside for 5 years.
Any advice? I just don't know what to do anymore
