I have 2 indoor cats. They are 11 years old, from the same litter and I've had them since they were 6 weeks old.
1 (the female) is very chilled and laidback, if not a little clingy at times. The boy however is an absolute pain in the arse!!! Love him to bits but he's greedy and very demanding. He goes mad, running up and down the hall, bouncing off walls (literally) if he doesn't get the attention/food he wants.
He's also getting us up at 5/5.5.30am every morning to be fed. Pre-baby, I would just feed him and he'd go back to sleep afterwards but now, he eats and then runs about meowing loudly and scratches at the windows and doors like he's possessed! He's not like this during the day.
I've tried ignoring him and shutting him the livingroom but he is so loud that he wakes the baby and that is a definite no-no!
Long story short, I'm having to get up at 5.30ish every morning just to keep him quiet so that everyone else can sleep and it's becoming a real struggle, especially if I've been up during the night.
Does anyone have any advice for me? I've had the vet round and he's fit and well so no medical reason for his behaviour. I've also bought feliway plug-ins to try and relax/calm him but they don't seem to make any difference.
I'm at my wits end!
