Aww its because he loves you so much My Ziggy who is an Oriental is totally like that. See my pics, he's the classic tabby.

He's calling loudly as I type and has now jumped up get in my way.

Luna the spotty tabby on the other hand is a quiet little princess. So glad its not both of them!

My kitty does this :P
Keep us updated how it goes though (Y)

total normal his a orental! just like siamese and bengals, just wait till he starts talking!!

should have got hime a playmate though from the same litter... if you do get him one make sure its a cat like him, a siamese/oriental type

Thanks for all your replies
There has been some improvement over the last few days. He has been a little more settled.
Over the weekend I made myself a little less available which meant he was forced to accept the attention of my husband and sons.

The problem is that I feel he is bored. He has so many toys and I feel that he is eating enough.
I agree that another kitten would solve the boredom problem, but with having my two moggies as well I couldn't make a committment to a fourth Pet.
It is so sad, the kitten is desperate to play and interact with the moggies, but one completely ignores him and the other hisses at him. They are 10 and 14 so don't have any time for him.
As for talking, he does talk quite a bit already at 19 weeks. Do they talk more as they get older?
All in all things are a bit better. Will keep you posted.

Hi

No, he's unlikely to become more talky than he already is. So glad he is improving, it does sound a little as though he was missing his mum and his littermates.

Another ori/siamese kitten would definitely help, and stop him bothering the oldies, but failing that, get different members of your family to play different games with him, such as "Fetch!", "Up!" and "Brush!" He'll like that.
One of my Orientals knew the names of 8 different toys before she had kittens, although after her first litter she thought it was a silly game.

One really cool game is to get three or four cardboard boxes and cut a hole in the side of each, line them up and put catnip mice in them... he'll love hopping in and out of them. If you can schedule in some interactive playtime at the same time each day, he'll get used to the routine and be less demanding the rest of the time.
