My cat Loki is 8-month old and he constantly makes all kinds of sound, mostly trills, or something between a trill and meow, and all kinds of other sounds.
It's not because of food, water, litter box, or illness (I just had him checked up 2 weeks ago). When he wants to play or pet, it's usually pretty obvious.
He's shy, a bit moody sometimes, and hard to read. Like today, he made noises and it gradually became constant meow that sounds sad. But when I approached him and tried to pet him, he backed off. I walked away, he started meowing again. I tried to play with him and he's not interested. He would approach me, but does not respond when I invite him. Then later he lied down close to me when I was looking away, but kept some distance and then got comfortable.
Sometimes I feel like he's trying to communicate with his sister. Because when I approach him, I find out he's play-fighting with his sister or trying to play with her but getting ignored. I think it's strange since I read that cats meow to communicate with human.
Sometimes I give him attention and he just walks away.
I adopted him 2 months ago. It took a while for him to settle down but now he's pretty comfortable with us. The foster family told me he's very vocal so I'm not too concerned, but I really want to know what he wants. He makes a lot of noises and meows a during the day, and I constantly ran to check on him. And that's right after I fed him and played with him in the morning. Should I just ignore him or give him attention? If I kept checking on him, it literally takes hours and I cannot get any works done during the day...
PS. sharing pictures of Loki and his sister Pen Pen. I love them so much!
