i moved countries together with my cat. Before moving, we lived in a house where had the possibility to go outside whenever he wanted to (except at night, would never leave him outside). Musiaka is castrated male cat, but he doesn't act like one - he used to be extremely territorial, getting into fights with other cats and foxes (!), marking territory, getting very nervous hearing a cat meow on youtube and stuff.
Now he lives with my mom in a 2 bedrooms apt. At first it went fine with him meowing in the mornings for a while and an occasional door scratching. I told my mom to not take him out at any cost, but she didn't listen and once took him out on a leash. That's when hell broke lose.
Now all he does is going around and meowing with a nasty voice every waking minute, unless you distract him. He doesn't mark anything the apt, just screams and goes around restlessly, until it's time to sleep. He eats and poops well, comes to be next to you when he's taking a nap, plays very energetically with jumps into the air so I doubt he is in pain. He doesn't even vomit as much and he used to be a frequent vomiter eating grass all the time. But the meowing and yowling is driving my mom crazy. I cannot take him with me due to my current landlord forbidding animals and im still on a lease until next February.
We suspect he might be in heat, or feeling territorial - probably smelled some cat pee outside. The outside cats are screaming in a similar manner right now, we heard. Is there a way to make him stop meowing all the time? Or is the only option to give away to someone who has a house?
