Why would a cat come to my window, I'm in the basement so they are right at eye level,

and start wailing? My cats are huffing and puffing in response. But why is the outside cat making such noise? Oh, now my cat is wailing. They are like a pack of wolves.

1. Perhaps it's a girl

in heat?

2. Spring is in the air. The timing is right. That must be hit. I swear I had a couple

of wolves here.

3. A tom looking for a mate? They tend to serenade.

4. Never witnessed it with the exception of when I was a kid.

5. I once lived in a second floor apartment. Took in a female cat.

A week later she went into heat. A tom howled on the fire escape all night. I was given the choice of getting rid of the cat or moving.

9. Heat: Please trap her and get her fixed. Look for low cost feral neuter/spay in your area.

12. She's back and the wailing continues.
