I read up about Bengal cats and found out that they are highly intelligent. They like company more than other cats so it could be that your cat is getting very lonely while you are out working.
They also like climbing and being in high places. Has your cat got an opportunity to climb in your house?
Apparently they are naturally very vocal.
Good luck! |

| Maybe you should watch them and see what they are fighting over or for. |

| I have 3 male cats they fight a lot. But I try to keep them happy with home made toys that are shiny and make noises |

| Bengal's need alot of exercise and entertainment have to tried walking him. Bengal's are much like a dog, because of this the males especially are very territorial which means if you get another cat you bengal could become very aggressive towards it if you do your research you'll find that generally they will get along better with dogs. Due to there territorial nature it could be that other cats in your area are what's causing your cat to be so vocal, also they are part wild cat and the wild cat that they come from is nocturnal. |

| Couple of things to check. Obviously look for territorial problems like other cats moving into the area. Ask yourself - is this a separation anxiety? Hypervocalisation in older cats can be due to high blood pressure, high thyroid hormone level and renal failure so it is also worth checking these out |

they are crying because the "mind" of man kind is not waking up !!!!
search and read "the fourteen lessons of yogi philosophy" by yogi ramacharaka
will help understand what is going on.
As for immediate remedy - while stroking over your pets head and down along it's back and tail, whisper gently that everything is going to be okay, or something to that effect - whatever you feel sounds better for you and your pet. They, animals close to humans, sense the increasing turmoil (stress) going on around us but don't have the mind for understanding.
I've noticed dogs whining at night.

| Hi I have a similar problem with my 9mo desexed Siamese, although not quite as bad. He starts crying during the night (usually around 3am) and will pace the house doing this until I lock him in the laundry. I think he knows at that point that I'm not coming to get him and he just goes to sleep. He will also often cry in the evenings even when I try to play with him. I heard Siamese get active once the sun goes down (and maybe because the neighbourhood cats are out to play), so they just want to go outside perhaps?? Mine only goes outside during the day and only when i'm home myself. Let me know if you make any progress! |

| Don't know about your vet, but our local practice give out very useful info about behaviour of our animals - maybe try them or the breeding society. Don't know about a dog! friend of mine has just got 2 Burmese (blue) and finds that's good solution as they keep each other company while she's at work> I think, if you want dog/cat combo maybe you needed to get them both as babies? Good luck. |

He's desexed, always has food and water and has lots of toys. He gets quite alot of one-to-one play time each day, but i'm not sure he thinks that is sufficient.
i suspect he's bored and i wonder if introducing a dog to the household would give him some company and fix the problem.
My husband either wants to get rid of him or get one of those anti-bark collars that spray citronella. I have no idea if either option would work. |

| Have you done any research on this breed? Obviously they're different from the usual household moggie. Is he desexed? Is he hungry? Does he want attention/games? Does he want to spend more time outside? If all else fails, ask Dr Harry and good luck! |

I'm having serious problems with my Bengal Cat. He is 18months old and for the last 2 months has been meowing for at least 4 hours when i come home from work. He is so loud that all of my neighbours have complained. He will Meow even when i am playing with him and he can be heard from the other side of the park accross the street from the house. He wakes us up at 230am with the meows and continues until 5am when i get up.
My husband wants to get rid of him but i am quite attached. any suggestions??? |
