My Cat is Whining constantly,What can i do about it?

Your cat is grieving the loss of your sister. She doesn't understand why she's not around anymore, and is simply looking to you for comfort and support.

I can understand how hard it is for you to have to keep giving her the attention she needs, but also try to understand her situation at the moment.

The last thing you should do is to lock her in a room on her own, without anyone she can seek comfort from.

Cats are very sensitive creatures, and more human than you might think. You need not cuddle her or acknowledge her presence really. All she really needs from you is for you to be the one constant presence she needs. So just simply being there is sufficient. Ignore her whines, but ensure that she knows you're always there for her.....let her see you, but continue going about doing your things. When you go into another room, call her along. She might ignore you for a while and continue whining. Eventually though, she'll follow you, and stop whining.

This is something you have to put up with for the time-being. She'll soon come to see that you love her, and are not going anywhere away from her anytime soon, and will begin to settle down. As with grieving human beings, you do need to give her some time to understand certain things, go through her grieving process, and then settle down into a new life with you with lots of love. If you feel up to it, you can try giving her a soft shirt or blanket that'd belonged to your sister for comfort, just so she can be comforted by your sister's smell while settling into your home.

Remember, as with human beings, animals do feel pain and emotions as well.

Good luck.

Are you kidding me? The cat is most likely in heat if she has not been desexed. This causes cats to be more affectionate. If you do not have enough time for her then find her a new home! Locking a cat into a room is cruel in the extreme & its obvious you do not want this poor cat. I feel sorry for the cat not for you. It needs to be desexed & checked out by a vet to make sure nothing is wrong with it then put into a loving home where people actually want her!

Sounds like a difficult situation for you.

if you don't really want and love this cat, the best thing for her ( and you) is to find her a loving home. She will go through a grieving process, just like you, with the loss of her human.

As a cat owner, who loved her cat, I'm SURE that your sister would want her to be in a home where she is wanted. Please don't keep her out of misplaced guilt. Ask yourself , what would your sister want for her cat?

Locking her away will only make things worse for both of you.

Sorry for your loss,

Good Luck

right now the cat needs some tlc her owner isnt in her life anymore and is placed in a new place with new things so now the cat has to get used to a whole new way of life just give it some time to get over it all and things should be good just love on her
