Some breeds are naturally more "talkative" than others. Have fun and meow back every once in a while.

As others have said, some cats are just naturally talkative!
I have two cats - the older one (female) only makes a noise if she wants something (usually food or attention!). She did go through a very loud phase when she was young and horny - even the next door neighbours could hear her when she was on heat - but that was soon fixed with a trip to the vets. We now have the odd conversation but she mainly communicates with purring and little chirps. Recently when she had to stay in at the vets for a while I discovered she never made a sound at all unless she saw me!
My younger cat (neutered male) is quite the chatterbox - sometimes he's quite happy prowling around talking to himself (and he really does sound like he's actually talking!). He's got a big voice on him for a little cat - but that's just the way he is and I love him for it!

She could be part Siamese. Oriental breeds (Siamese, Burmese ect) are very talkative. . Ours is very talkative too,so we reach down and pet her, but that doesn't satisfy her. She keeps on meowing till she stops.yr
You'd think after a while her throat would get sore,but it doesn't seem to.
My cat doesn't look oriental either. Amazingly enough, some people see this as a very desirable trait in cats and some are actually bred for this!
When you go to sleep you leave her alone. (or so she thinks) that's probably part of it.
Oh you know what? Cats are very social and do better with other cats if you can do the expense of it.

She's talking to you. If she is looking at you directly and it goes from loud meows to quite meows and chirps. And she's walking on her tip toes. It's her way of communicating with you. As you make a fuss of her each time she does it. She knows she will get a reaction from you every time. If she was in any sort of pain or discomfort you would know by the noise she was making.

She is an attention seeker. She needs constant companionship.
1. You could get another cat as a play friend. Cats are social as much as any other animal.
2. You could get her some play toys. Cats like variety.
3. Is she spayed? She may just be frisky. Does this happen all the time or same time every month? Just take her to get her spayed.

Some cats are more vocal aka chatty than others. They use all those meows like humans use language, to communicate needs, wants, and emotions. This sounds silly, but try chatting with her, one way is by meowing back to her...some cats love when their humans have a 'conversation' with them.

Some cats just don't know when to shut up. However, it might help if she had another cat for a companion to help drain off those sociable energies. I have one cat that sits in the doorway and "talks" non-stop to the cats outside. The only way to shut him up is to shut the door. Another sits in the window and "talks" for ages to absolutely nothing that I can see. Another will hold her tongue untill about 5 a.m. and then start up until we get up! We put her in the bathroom when we go to bed, so we can get some sleep! As you see, having others cats for company hasn't shut them up entirely, but at least it's manageable.

What you did not tell is if she has been doing this ever since she was a kitten. If this is something she started doing only a while ago.... she might have become a lady with female urges ;-) Do you let her out at night, or is she always inside the house? She might want to get out and find herself a date....

some cats are just more vocal then others. Siamese are known to be very vocal and it is in their breed stats. if she has been this way since you got her i am i afraid you just have a chatty cat. if not i would advise going to see a vet as there could be a problem.
