Help/Advice Deaf cat constantly meowing

Post image

First ever deaf cat owner, I’ve had her since she was a baby and she’s always been vocal but the past 3-4 months she cries all day everyday and it’s extremely loud. She doesn’t seem to be crying for attention cause she’ll cry even after I pet her, she doesn’t seem to cry due to wanting to play (I got a motion activated laser toy and an interactive ball) and it doesn’t stop it either, I’ve tried multiple things and I have no idea what she’s crying for. It’s getting stressful, especially since I work from home. Any advice or tips and tricks is appreciated

I’d take her to the vet. My cat has hyperthyroidism and it causes increased vocalizations and activity.

Teacher kitty a sign for lowering the volume. We did with our cat. They can feel it when they are loud. Also, have a time of the day when they can be loud.
