Increased vocalization and restlessness at night, especially in older cats, can be due to various reasons. It might be a sign of feline cognitive dysfunction (dementia), hyperthyroidism, high blood pressure, or even just a behavioral change due to boredom or seeking attention. Ensuring an enriched environment during the day, maintaining a consistent routine, and avoiding feeding right before bedtime might help. However, a veterinary check-up is important to rule out any medical causes, particularly thyroid issues, which are common in older felines.
