Default Bedtime routine

About 9 PM I turn off the TV, go use the love glove on Amber and tell
her how good and beautiful she is. Then I head down stairs and tell her
it's time for Friskies (indoor delights), a snack that she likes. She
goes down stairs and I give her a sample. Tiger is there and he wants
some too. Then Amber goes to the bedroom and jumps (using a step-stool)
up on the bed for the night. After brushing my teeth, I give her a good
night kiss and get into bed. I tell her how happy I am that she is on
the bed and I hope she will stay all night (she usually does). Then I
turn off the light.

Similar except I only have one cat, Persia. When I go in at night to
get ready for bed, while I'm brushing my teeth she trots in for a bit of
kibble and a drink of water. She uses her litter box which is in the
master bathroom. When I get in bed she uses her kitty steps to join me
on the bed. I give her some scritches and tell her I love her, then
turn off the light.

When she was younger she'd stay there with me all night. As she's
gotten older she doesn't necessarily sleep with me the whole time. But
she's right there again by 6AM, ready to tap me on the nose the minute
she thinks I'm about to wake up
