We bought home our beautiful 12-week old kitten four days ago. He came from a very reputable breeder.
We love him. But, my god is he shouty. He meows (in a shouty way, not a sad way) ALL THE TIME. It makes no difference what we’re doing - he doesn’t stop if we play with him or cuddle him or leave him alone. He does it if we’re in the room with him or elsewhere. He even does it when he’s eating and sometimes in his sleep too. He’s so loud he drowns out the sound of the TV. He otherwise seems fine - eating, using the litter box, playing. Not hiding from us. Not massively affectionate yet but happy to be picked up for a bit and will occasionally come onto a lap. He’s confined to one room (the living room) though today we left the door to the next room (DH’s office) open and he’s ventured in there a bit.
Breeder says it’s normal for them to call out to their siblings/ mum for ‘a few days’ but that he should quieten down soon.
So I guess I’m just looking for reassurance! How long did your kitten cry/ shout for when they first arrived???
