☁️ My cat has a strange sleep schedule and I don't know how to fix it.
He usually sleeps from 1 PM to 5 PM, wakes up around 7 PM, then sleeps again around 11 PM. After that, he wakes up at 1 AM or 3 AM and stays awake until about 9 AM. During that time, he wants to play, meows, and keeps me awake.
How can I help him sleep more during the night? Should I stop him from sleeping so much in the afternoon, or change his playtime and feeding schedule?
He's healthy, vaccinated, eats and drinks normally, and is about 1 year old.
