There is a reason why cats are like children crying. Generally, it is because the cat is in heat, and the screams it makes are mainly to attract the opposite sex to mating. Secondly, cats may make such calls when they have physiological needs to attract their owner's attention, let their owner accompany them or give them some food. In addition, if the cat often screams like this, and it is accompanied by symptoms such as listlessness and loss of appetite, it may be that it is sick, and its physical discomfort or pain stimulates it to keep screaming.

1. In estrus

If a female cat makes crying like a child and is often in the middle of the night, it is very likely that the cat is in estrus. During this period, cats will also show that they are particularly clingy, rubbing everywhere, and will even be tilted once they are touched, and they will be easily attracted by other cats of the opposite sex. Therefore, at this time, it is recommended that the owner control the cat in the estrus to a certain range and do not let it escape. Of course, if the owner wants the cat to give birth, he or she can consider fertilizing the cat during this period. If the owner does not want the cat to become pregnant, he can take the cat to the pet hospital for sterilization after the estrus period is over.

2. Have physiological needs

If the cat is still young, it calls like a child, it may be because it has needs to express to its owner, such as it is thirsty, hungry, and wants to play with its owner, etc. At this time, the owner can prepare some food for the cat and pay attention to keeping the cat warm to see if there is any improvement.

3. Sick

If the cat does not show estrus or has undergone sterilization surgery, and is accompanied by symptoms such as listlessness and loss of appetite, it may be because the cat is sick, causing physical pain, so it makes a more miserable scream like a child. At this time, it is recommended that the owner take the cat to the pet hospital for examination in time, check the cause and then treat the disease symptomatically to avoid delaying the disease.
