Hi everyone,
It's been a while, hope y'all doing well.
The issue is simple, yet I have no idea how to modify this behavior.
Tiger, 2 years old, I've had him since he was 1 month old, he's my baby and we've been through a lot together.
But recently (in the past year), he developed this strange behavior which is vocalization a lot. He'd do it when he's thirsty, hungry or wants me to clean one of the litter boxes, which I think is okay, actually helpful. Sometimes I find out it's just because he wants me to pet him which is a problem because he will never have enough, I'd pet him for half an hour and then leave him to just start shouting again. Sometimes because he is sleeping and want us to shut up or go away. But there are many times I cannot understand why he's doing this.
The Vocalization:
Gentle but repetitive. I know he can make it a lot louder (I've heard how loud he can get before) but for some reason, he doesn't. I know it is being too much because I had several cats/kittens before for short periods and none of them was this annoying. And No, he doesn't have any medical issue, he seems healthy.
maybe it can be called friendly hair-pulling shouting.
What I need from you guys is how can I modify this behavior and just make it stop? You have no idea how he's becoming even more annoying over time.
Thank you
