Why is my unneutered 11-month-old male cat meowing and crying at night?

Question

For about a week or so now my cat who is around 11 months old has been meowing and crying throughout the night inside our bedroom. He usually does it by our bedroom window, or at our bedroom door. This causes my wife and I to wake up multiple times throughout the night. First thing that comes to mind is getting him neutered, but we are unsure what else can be the cause for this. He is a very calm loving cat and we have never had behavior issues with him. Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 10 lbs

I would say it is time to neuter Hobi! He is likely yeowling at night by the window because he wants to go prowling for females with whom he can mate. Even if he does find one to mate with, he's still going to want to go out every night to find females, so the way to stop this behavior is to have him neutered. Give a vet a call today to make an appointment to have him neutered. Best of luck, I hope this helps!
