Thread: why does my cat wake me up ao early. doesn't he no its the weekend

It's a very civilised 7.30am MC alarm in our house, which is when I get up for work. So that's fine, except at the weekend when I want a lie-in, thanks. So I get up and nip them downstairs, and go back to bed for a snooze.

As for shutting them out of the bedroom, I couldn't. One of the best parts of the day is bedtime: they follow me upstairs, hang around in the bathroom, get in the bath and lick the cold tap, chase a few toys across the landing, and when I get into bed they're all up for a few rounds of the bedbugs game, and after that we all snuggle down.... Now they're a bit older they sleep through the night and don't often wake me up - not until 7.30am anyway!
