How can I get a cat to not meow after I stop playing with it?
My cat loves to play fetch. We'll play for about 15 minutes before I end up doing something else. The moment I stop playing fetch my cat will continue to meow until I either play again, or until I hide the headband somewhere.
I don't want to keep having to hide the headband. Is there anyway I can train my cat to know when it's no longer play time, so it won't meow after I stop playing fetch?
I have a cat tree which he likes to play on, as well as other toys I don't need to get involved with, but he seems more interested in playing fetch. I just want the meowing to stop; I cant play fetch forever :(

Some suggestions:
For your play sessions, use a toy that really tires your cat out. For example, check out da bird.
At the end of the play session, introduce a toy that the cat can play with on its own. (For example, one of those balls with holes that you hide food inside.)
I'm assuming that your cat is young. As cats get older, they tend to want shorter play sessions. So this is probably a self-correcting problem.
