Cats are quite social and active creatures. They have a natural tendency to hunt and stay up at night. Your kitty can get excited, play around, walk or yowl while you are asleep. You need to find out the specific reason for your cats' nocturnal behavior. Sometimes the cat stays alone during the day and stays inactive: resulting in hyperactive behavior at night. You should engage your cat in playing with you as you get home. Try to schedule the meals right before the time you want your kitty asleep. Get your cat some toys to spend the time home alone.
Keep an eye on the cat's physical and emotional health. Some cats show night crazies because they are suffering from a syndrome called Feline Hyperesthesia. Try to provide such cats with a stress-free environment. Calm down your cat with a wrapping towel during an episode of seizures. Hyperthyroidism and dementia can also make cats' night crazies. A veterinarian can help with these physical ailments.
It may be difficult to bear with your pet's night crazies but you should be patient. Try using reward-based reinforcement techniques and train your pet with tolerance.
A sudden change in your pet’s health and/or behavior should warrant a visit to your animal hospital Washington DC. Visit their website to know more about their services.
