Does he like catnip? What sort of treat-foods does he like? The first few
days in a new home -- I want adopters to spoil a cat so wel that the cat would
be horrified at the thought of coming back to my crowded little house.
Did he sleep with anyone in particular at night? Could he be missing
someone? Is he "crying" (unhappy, distrssed) or calling for someone?

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...

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.
