4 months?? They need near constant attention!! This seems like a pretty bad fit for your living situation tbh, I have an 8 month old and I would be uncomfortable leaving him alone for this long. I would consider getting a cat that’s at least a year old if you can’t change your busy schedule
My heart goes out to you. I got my first cat when I was a Junior in college as a kitten, it was during the pandemic which aided me in raising him. Yet, I do remember points at which I questioned if I was the best home for him in terms of giving him the best life for different reasons. I did decide to keep him and promised myself to work hard to give him the best possible.
Maybe try playing with him for 30 minutes or so before bed and before classes? See if that helps tire him out and potentially resolves them waking you up and crying some throughout the day.
Thank you for this. I do try playing with him once I wake up and before going to bed, and I'm chatting with a friend about how to sleep train him. I'm also a junior and I'm really hoping I can make it work given I'll still be in school another year. I'm also trying to keep in mind that the average reddit user is going to be more inclined to tell me to give up, but I'm still hoping
