My cat keeps meowing at the front door

Hi everyone,

My cat is 10 months old, has a very sweet temperament and is really playful – no issues to report until now! We had him neutered two months ago, even though he's strictly an indoor cat.

BUT for the last 10 days it’s been a nightmare; he sits in front of the front door, scratches at the door frames and meows non-stop, mainly at night (though for the last few days he’s started doing it during the day too...).

What surprises me most is that we went to my parents' house last weekend and he was as good as gold... But as soon as we got back to the flat, he started up again.

We’ve already bought an essential oil diffuser (which was supposed to calm him down) but nothing’s working. Letting him out isn't an option as we live in the Paris area. If anyone could give me some advice or point me in the right direction...

Thanks in advance for your replies..

    Maybe he just wants to be noticed. Sometimes my cat meows because he wants attention and is looking for even more of a cuddle. There you go 😉

    We're out at work during the day, but he’s got plenty of toys: a cat tree by the window, balls, soft toys etc... We play with him every evening at the very least. We’ve NEVER had any issues before now...

    Hi everyone

    What sort of activities do you do with your cat and how often?
