I don't think she is taking the food up at night.  I will have to ask.  He
has a lot of toys and is not showing much interest (something else that
worries me).  She is trying to play with him before bed to wear him out.  It
isn't helping.  He's only eating canned food apparently.  I sent them home
with canned and dry felidae, but he's only eating the canned...

Maybe she should try petting him and comforting him, if this seems like
a really distressed crying sort of thing.  Is there dry food and water down
at night, so he knows he isn't going to go hungry?  A bedtime snack could
help too -- canned food, a little shredded chicken or canned tuna, some kind
of treat to settle him for the night.  Might be worth wearing him out a
little earlier in the evening -- one of those trackball toys or a laser
light, throw in some catnip.

He needs a little adjustment time, and some spoiling to welcome him to his
new home.  Maybe a few days, with ear plugs for the adopter?

Hi all,
I adopted out a cat on Thursday night.  The adopter called me today and
said he has been crying all night every night and she hasn't been able to
sleep at all.  He is fine during the day, very affectionate, likes to give
her kisses, but he will not let her sleep.  I need suggestions, or else this
adopter will return this cat.  As he's a black cat, he is not going to have
too many options.  She is not petting him when he is crying.  He is eating
and using the litterbox.  I don't know how to get this adopter past this.
She's willing to try things for a few more days, but I don't think much
longer than that.
