The crying out is behavior that many cats exhibit and is a social behavior towards other cats. Friday is a product that is over the counter and may help calm the cats down. If the hair pulling is behavioral it may help with that as well. The hair pulling may be related to pain, allergies, skin infection, stress, etc. If it does not improve with the Feliway I would schedule and appointment with your vet to have an exam performed.
