Thread: Problems with kitty waking early!!!

I think you may have to think about getting him a playmate. I'm not sure what time Simba wakes up. His favourate place to sleep at the moment is in my son's room, second choice my room. Daughter has banned him from her room and shuts her door. Son throws him out some mornings as he keeps grabbing his feet, with claws But generally when I wake he is playing with Elsa or Maggie or both. When I set the alarm during the week I have to be up early and I am awake before him or the dogs - these are generally quiet mornings as they stay asleep while I have a shower and then follow me downstairs bleary eyed. It must be hard for you if you are trying to let your husband sleep and not wake neighbours but I think generally ignoring him will work best. If you hold out, he will get the idea eventually but you will have to prepare yourself for some kitten tantrums. Not sure what the peeing in his cage is - maybe he wants to make sure you don't put him in there again

My kitty does the same thing, I work all week and wake up at 6:30 am, so ofcourse my little squishy gets feed and played with. On the weekends I like to sleep in late , but my baby doesn't see it that way. He constantly meows and nips for attention . I have no idea how to make him stop his little hissy fits

As I have said before in other threads & after reading all above I am pleased that I am a hard mum & cats have their own room to retire too,I get grumpy enough with his indoors musical talents during the night without cats intervention too,also have found having a room to ban them too if they misbehave also works well ,time out on their own soon makes them realise that there are certain things not expected from them,the oldest girl who still slips up on occasions takes herself off down there & when you look down the corridor she has her head out of the doorway with an oops shouldn't have done that look & she will just sit there until you tell her to come out & of course then get cuddles....All is forgiven until the next time.
With six of them {at the moment eight with daughters staying}it would be a bit of a nightmare if they were all allowed free rein,although I suppose I could always retire to their room !
