Cat shrink, can you explain why my cat screams all goddamn day while I’m trying to work? He doesn’t want held. He doesn’t have an empty dish. He can reach his many toys. He’s healthy. He’s comfortable. He won’t shut the fuck up.
I get off work and leave the office and he’s no longer screaming. Doesn’t need me or anything.
Does eye contact shut him up? Cats use eye contact as a primary communication mode, and meowing to communicate with humans, he might be conditioned to think the meowing gets the eye contact he wants.
Or, he’s just an asshole, lots of cats are assholes too.
