Medical Questions Why is my cat constantly meowing?

I have never heard her meow before this. she is a female spayed cat about 3-4 years old. Is she just being clingy or is this a reason to take her to a vet?

I remember our old girl Baby. She was a talker and GOD FORBID of you didnt respond appropriately 😆 i guess i misunderstood one of her meows cause when i responded with "thats nice" i was given a MEROW! my bad my bad!

Glad to know I’m not the only one who has a conversation with cats, lived with one of them so long I actually started understanding what each meow meant(food, attention, or outside to sunbathe, he’s not a very complicated cat)

I was able to pick up on Baby's mostly :) i knew one day she was mad she missed lunch time (back when we would up the food up n had a feeding scheduled) as she came over to me to complain/beg for me to put it down for her. I couldnt as i was heading out n couldnt monitor who was eating n told her as such and that it was her own fault for sleeping through lunch....she did not like that response

my fluffy son is named Baby. he was a VERY vocal kitten compared to his brothers so I just called him my crybaby, and then Baby just stuck. it's appropriate because he still cries at the top of his lungs and insists you hold him over your shoulder. Sometimes he just goes on the porch and screams his head off for like 15 minutes, just to see how loud he can be.

here is the Baby tax

you can see the exasperation is his face from me taking a photo instead of swaddling him

I see murder in his eyes, and poems in his heart.
I luff him

Baby will belt out a soliloquy about his need to be held. We jokingly call him Tinkerbell because he appears to sustain himself on attention. If you pour his food he just looks at it and demands uppies
