Biscuit: *digging at blankets* Moooooommmmmy.
Me: Go away, cat.
Biscuit: *bangs on the dresser drawers* Mommy!
Me: What is it, you little pest?

Biscuit: GOOD MORNING! It is time for you to be awake!
Husband and me: Caaaaaaaaaaaat. Can't you wait until 5:45?
Biscuit: No, I want to play NOW. Also you should feed me.
Me: We should get rid of the alarm clock. We don't need it.

Seriously though, I would never have the cat in the bedroom. We made that mistake with the first Burmese we had and it was hard to get sleep sometimes.
Since I'm just one person here, I wouldn't get much sleep if I let the cats sleep in the bedroom, it would be too tiresome when they started wandering about in the night.
Kitties will stop the meowing in front of the bedroom door if you ignore them (sometimes not so easy to do). And maybe you can put a piece of old carpet in front of the door so she doesn't scratch there?

Date: 2009-11-11 07:53 pm (UTC)I'll admit that I wanted to have the cat in the bedroom, because I like having her snooze with us. From the first day we had her, Biscuit moved right in to the bedroom and curled up on the bed. So, I get up and deal with her problems when they arise. Rudy was the same way, only he got put outdoors when he was annoying. We could try a second piece of carpet on top of the first - I'll bring it up.
Where do your cats sleep, on the couch? Or do they use kitty beds?
