Is this a change in behavior pattern? Some cats (like Siamese) are naturally talkative and meow a lot, commenting on events or responding to their owners. If that isn’t typical for your cat, and it isn’t something like a urinary tract infection, thyroid, kidney disease, or other health issue, has there been any change in routine? Some cats under stress — such as due to a change in daily routine, owner stress, construction in or around the house, a new dog or cat in the neighborhood, a new baby in the family, being alone except for the pet sitter while the family is on vacation, a change in food — will become discontent. Your cat is fixed, correct? Sometimes older cats can get more vocal. And sometimes, a cat will blossom and become more talkative as the the bond between owner and cat strengthens. If you think it might be stress, try increasing the attention; perhaps he will calm down a little after a while. Good luck!
