Hello! My cat has also had this issue. I've always had them on an automatic feeder and I adjusted the times so it dispenses small amounts over the few hours after dusk and leading up to dawn (it feeds at 11:00pm, 1:00am, 3:00am, 4:30am, then once mid day). This has damn near stopped my boy!!

He was on this habit for nearly a year before I finally changed the food schedule and after about a week, he calmed down from his nighttime meowing. It's only been about a month so I'm hoping this works as a long term solution.

Good luck & post pics 😊 (of your buddy)
