Thread: Night Owl Cat

Hi Donna - I sleep with earplugs due to Trumpetting-Husband-Syndrome - and husband sleeps very very soundly - so mostly if Neevie kicks off we can't hear her as HO trumpets louder than she can cry. Result: I'm pretty sure she understood by now that if the door is closed at night, it means no cuddle till morning.
On the other hand, she has found a trick a long time ago.
She sometimes manages to sneak in with me in the bedroom when I go to bed, she stays under the bed till she feels I am safely sleepy, then jumps on my and has a good snooze on my lap, and then when she hears HO getting ready to come to bed, usually a couple of hours later, she jumps down and sneaks under the bed, and stays there till he's safely tucked and snoring. Then she resumes her position on my lap by which time she knows I'm too sleepy to kick her out.
Sometimes she is too sleepy to hear HO come in and he manages to catch her all fluffed up and sleepily "mrowing" a protest - and puts her outside ;-)
