REALLY BAD CAT

Hey folks

I am having some major issues with my cat. He will not let me sleep more than 3 hours in a night. He whines, scratches on everything and tears apart the papers on my desk all night long. He has two scratching posts and a number of toys that he will not use at night. I have tried every kind of corrective behaviour I can think of and the problem just keeps getting worse. Nothing in his daily routine has changed in the past few months so I am unsure why this behaviour keeps escalating. I have tried closing the door to the bedroom at night but that just makes him cry and scratch so much more. I would hate to have to give the cat away, we do have some special moments. I just need to know how to fix this so I can get some sleep at night, it is disrupting my daily life.

Thanks.

Has your cat been fixed? It sounds like he may be smelling a female in heat and trying to go investigate. What does he do when you let him outside?
