Why does your kitten suddenly love to meow?

There are several possible reasons for your kitten's sudden change in behavior. First, the kitten may be experiencing physical discomfort, such as pain causing it to make noise. Second, the kitten could be in heat, which aside from suddenly loving to meow, may also lead to behaviors like rubbing against people and urinating randomly. Third, the owner may not have cleaned the cat's litter box or fed it on time.
