Thread: Merlin is a morning coonie *yawn* and I also think he was raised by dogs

I jinxed myself last night! I brought a dish of kibble to our bedroom so Merlin would be less likely to bother us in the morning... He ate some and I thought he'd fall asleep. Right after he ate, Merlin started howling at the top of his lungs and racing up and down the stairs. It was around 1:30am, DH was not impressed LOL! Our 8 year old son was up early and fed him breakfast, so I was able to sleep in.
There seems to be a connection with food and howling though. He will sometimes eat, then head for the basement and howl before he uses the litter box. Perhaps it's a territorial thing? "I am Merlin Coon, hear me roar!!!"
