My cat has taken up opera singing?

My cat Samson has decided to become an opera singer. I'm fine with that, except that he likes to practice at 4am. I'm not sure why he's decided this is a good time to practice all of a sudden, but he's been consistently doing it for about a week now. I've tried getting up and feeding him thinking he must be hungry. Nope, he just eats a couple bites and starts singing as soon as I get back in bed. I think he must be kind of shy because he always quits practicing as soon as I get out of bed. Once I'm up, he stops and takes a nap. Arggggh! He's so cute and lovable that I can't be mad at him, but I also need my sleep. How can I convince my budding opera star to practice during normal (human) waking hours? Or at least to sing quietly to his sister until the humans are awake? Has anyone's cat ever picked up this habit? Did it stop eventually, or should I just go buy some earplugs?





Thanks for any helpful suggestions you can offer.





PS-I don't like squirting, yelling, or any form of physical punishment. Closing the bedroom door does no good--his lovely voice carries throughout the whole house.

When my cat got vocal at pre-dawn hours, I coaxed him into having another nap with me.
Reply:Lol awww!! thts so cute!!


my cat used to do that but she stopped now. She would just meow and meow until i get up. I never knew what she wanted but am guessing she just enjoyed my presence..


Your cat probably just wants company as well.. it will stop dw
Reply:Has he been neutered? That's what my still-intact male cat does when he is calling a female in heat. If so, the cat will stop when the female is out of heat.
Reply:Could you post a link, I would love to hear Cat Opera.





Is he fixed? If not, he wants to go out and serenade the lady cats.
Reply:Lol your funny. :) thanks for giving me a laugh today.
Reply:work up a schedule with your cat :)) When its ok to practice and when its not... im sure he/she will understand
Reply:You more than likely have female cats close by and he is calling them. This is what male cats do when females are in heat and they can smell them. And yes he can smell them even though he is inside and they are not. He is doing this at night because that's when the female cats are on the prowl as they are hunting.


Have him fixed and it should calm him down and he should stop meowing at night.
