Thanks! He is photogenic, yes. And annoying. Yes. He meows!
He howls at the door to get outside. He howls at our bedroom door in the night. We confine him to a room where we can't hear him but daughter can, and she ALWAYS takes pity on him and lets him out. The cat has such a LOUD and obnoxious and PERSISTENT voice. In seven years, he has not reformed.

Hmm. I don't know as much about making them less noisy--mostly just how to deal with super-physical behavior. Sounds like quite a puzzle.

Sounds like "Diary of a Sad Cat" - that video totally nails the mind-set of the despot. If you can call that smooth brain a "mind." Cats resemble human newborns in size, in their mewling sounds, and with their big eyes in little faces. We are hard-wired to cave in to their demands. I object! But Bobi has enslaved the daughter, and we dare not send him into exile and dethrone the little dictator.

Dear diary,
It is 5 am on the day my human calls saturday but I feel since Ive have had plenty of sleep, so has he.
I will use all of my efforts, vocal and physical to wake this slothful beast and get him up.
Im aware I dont need anything, I just want him up.
After he rises, I will take that as an 'all is well' and I will immediately go to sleep.

Haha, thanks for this. It's strange I never had seen that video before.
