Deaf Cat Howl

[Longblades]

It's driving us nuts and it's so very sad. Ginger is 17 and getting quite deaf. She's always been pretty vocal about letting her wants be known but now her wants are constantly changing and never ending because we just can't give her what she wants all the time.

Partly that's because the other two cats beat her up. It's actually not as bad now that she doesn't hear them coming. Before she would often start things by saying nasty things to them when they approached but now she doesn't hear their approach. So in turn, they are not retaliating against her. Still, we have to keep them separated so Ginger just can't have the free run of the house as she wants so she HOOWWWLLLLLSSSSSS. Because she is deaf she is much louder than before.

Poor old girl. She was not an affectionate cat before but now she seems to want to always be with us. And she can't, she just can't. She has to let the other two have a turn.

Has anybody else encountered this problem? Any solutions? My Vet supplied the wording for my title so I know it is not an uncommon thing. He didn't have a solution.
