How do I get my cat to calm down at night and limit his nocturnal activity?
My cat goes crazy at night, around 1am, sometimes not until 4am. I need to sleep! I want to play with her and I do during the evening.

Cats are nocturnal by nature, so it might take some time to change your cat’s natural schedule of snoozing all day and being active at night while you’re trying to sleep. The best way to accomplish this is to keep your cat as busy as possible during the daylight hours. Provide plenty of interesting toys for the cat and schedule a daily play time for your cat with you or other family members. If you tire your pet out in the late afternoon or early evening, it will be much more likely to sleep at night and adjust to your schedule. Also, it’s a good idea to feed the cat early, too, and take up its food bowl so it won’t be tempted by a midnight snack. Just remember, this will most likely be a gradual process, so be patient.

Cats are definitely nocturnal creatures. All small domestic cats descended from desert cats in the Middle East. Because of the heat of the day over there most cats sleep during the day and are active at night when it’s cooler out.
Our little kitties kept that trait and are still nocturnal. Fortunately, for most owners, their cats will develop their sleeping patterns and learn to sleep at night. But it can be very problematic for new kitten owners as kittens are almost always nocturnal winding up just before their humans’ bedtime. Again, they usually out grown this and learn their humans schedule but it’s still annoying to be pounced on at 2am and awoken out of a dead sleep by a bed leaping kitty!
