I have a 10 year old male cat who always complain when I'm not in his presents(like when I'm in the bathroom). Only time he stops meowing is when I hold him or when he's sleeping on my chest. He's very very baby like and he's 10 years old!! Whenever I hold him, he places his head on my shoulder and falls asleep(I thought only kittens do this).

Right now as I type, He's trying to sit on my lap and he's meowing like crazy. He will stop meowing when he's on my lap. He constantly wants to play(he shows me his belly like 10 times a day).

I always give him love but I have things to do too. When cat's need constant attention at 10 years old, is this abnormal? How can I toughen him up. I tried to ignore him for only a day, but he wont' give up meowing until I hold him.
