Chuck is 12 and we recently moved toi a new apt. He has all his toys, his bed, his teepee etc. Off and since we moved he is waking up at about 4 am and yowling till we are all awake. Needless to say, it's getting irritating.

I have gotten up, he has food, he has water, clean potty. Seems he just wants to be held/petted. I thought at first he was scared in a new place.

I have tried to take him to bed, he won't stay. He meows at the top of his lungs and paws at the closet doors or the bedroom door so it bangs.

I really don't want him to think that I will spring out of bed at his every mew either you know? LOL

He has been to the vet too because I thought maybe he was sick. Not the problem he says.

COuld he just be wanting attention? Nearly everyone in the house is mad at him right now because he is being so nawtie especially when we only get one day to sleep in. He did this every day last week and so far this week.

So I get up, walk the floor with him (sounds like a baby right?) and get him settled down, then go back to bed and hope to GOD that will do it. LOL

Any ideas or things that I haven't thought of?
