Recognizing a crying cat and why it is crying is very important for the feline's well-being. And, today, we will see how to identify this phenomenon and what to do.

We separate the main reasons that lead cats to cry. Together with each of them, we also present solutions. See what they are and don't despair if your pet appears crying, because you'll know exactly what to do.

I cry from hunger

Firstly, it is quite common for cats to cry because of hunger. This can happen due to the passage of long hours since the last meal. Or else, the presence of old food in your pot.

Cats like new food. Often the feed bowl is full, but he doesn't touch the food. In these cases, test by discarding the food in the container and adding a new one.

Also, remember to always keep the pots clean. For this, clean them daily. This is a habit that keeps parasites, bacteria and fungi away from your four-legged friend's food.

Also, create a routine with your cat. The amount of food depends on the cat's weight and age. Based on this, distribute meals throughout the day and get him used to eating at these times. With that, crying for hunger should stay in the past.

Cat crying over change in routine

Another reason for cat crying is changing your routine. And this is not just due to the change in activities of the day or their schedules. It also includes changes to where you live, such as moving house. Similarly, furniture changes or their arrangement.

Cats can be irritated by this. After all, they like routines and organization in their daily lives. So, don't expect him to immediately embrace the changes you offer. You have to wait for him to get used to it.

But what to do? Try to make him comfortable. Offer some longtime toy that he likes and becomes familiar with. Also, make sure he has a comfortable, quiet, and peaceful corner.

Still, try to show him how to adapt. Consider, for example, changing the location of the scratching post or litter box. Take them often to these places where they are now. With that, he tends to adapt.

pain and diseases

Another common reason that justifies a cat crying is revealed in pain and illness. The development of some disease, an accident or injury can be the reason for the high-pitched and constant meowing.

Therefore, always analyze your cat's body through such meows. So, try to identify wounds, for example. In addition, take him frequently to the veterinarian, who will be able to analyze him, perform tests and diagnose any illness.

Also, whenever your cat starts to meow frequently, analyze if any previous factor may have occurred. Has there been a recent change? Does he have clean food and water available? Is the path to the feline toilet clear?

If all this is in order, seek a veterinarian soon. It keeps your peace of mind. It also allows a quick diagnosis and also professional guidance.

Fear

Another reason cats can meow frequently is fear. That fear, again, is quite diverse. First, fear of other humans or animals is natural. Especially when they aren't used to company.

Also, fear can be caused by a household appliance. The vacuum cleaner, the blender, the hair dryer and the washing machine are among those that cause the most fear. 

Adapt your home, then. Also, be patient as it may just be an adjustment period.

heat

Finally, female cats often meow fervently during heat. See if this isn't the reason for the intense meows. Also, remember to neuter the cats. This prevents illness, helps keep you at home, and increases your longevity.
