My adopted cat (lived wth my for 4 years) is very noisy/chatty. Constant meowing and if she wants something then very loud, insistent meowing.
She can be a little darling and sleep through the night on the end of my bed but she's started waking me up between 3:30-4:30am at the moment and it's killing me. She starts by meowing and if that doesn't wake me, comes and hits me in the face to wake me up. She wants me to go and watch her eat food in the kitchen (she already has the food in her bowl) then to let her out.
We're in a first floor flat so I can't try a cat flap. I've tried leaving her out all night and the downstairs neighbours complained as she sat under their bedroom window and howled to be let in. I've tried leaving her in the kitchen with the door shut but again howling to be let out and come and sleep with me.
I'm like a zombie at the moment - help does anyone have any ideas of what to do? I need to get a lodger soon as I've just managed to find the strength to evict my abusive husband but am struggling financially without his small contribution. I can't get rid of her, she's the only thing that's kept me going through all the difficult times with his abuse. I'm worried a lodger wouldn't tolerate her noisy behaviour and I can't go on like this either. Thanks everyone, hoping you all have some ideas!
