yelly cat problems (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

hey cat community! I have some vocal-cat behavioural problems I was wondering if you all could crack.

my cat boy biggins has always been pretty vocal and chatty, but it's gotten pretty unbearable lately. I've started walking him on a harness at the local primary school (it's open to the public out of school hours). he's amazing to walk - super cooperative and sweet with the harness. but when we're home, he's been non-stop throwing howling tantrums when he can't go.

how do you handle this kind of behaviour? I'm ordering some earplugs and ignoring him in the meantime, but any advice would be great!

Our orange tabby is a crier and he sometimes will talk to us until we follow him to the litter box and guard him/watch him poop. That's the last thing we check after we've tried all the things you've listed. Then it's time for meds.
