Cat likes to make noise when I'm trying to fall asleep

I do this with oour girls every night just for exercise. I assume you have
tried opening the cabinet?

That's a good solution, too. Sometimes a behavior just turns into a power
struggle between the owner & cat. And we alread know the cat is going to win.
I don't get it, really, the big deal. Open the cabinet! Frank likes to get in
the linen closet. He gets up there by opening the drawer at the bottom,
standing on it, and opening the cabinet door. First he opens the drawer
scratch scratch scratch SQUEAK SQUEAK SQEAK.
OK. Drawer is open. He's standing on it. Now for the tall door, which is on a
hinge and doesn't latch.
scratch scratch scratch BANG BANG
Dang. Almost got it. But he has to open it wide enough for the hinge not to
bang it back shut.
scratch scratch scratch BANG BANG.
Silence.
He got it. Now he has to throw all the pillowcases and towels out. He sleeps
there the rest of the night.
It's just one of those familiar noises that you get used to. I use plenty of
Old English to cover up the scratches, though.

What a short memory some folks have. How could anyone who remembers your
wonderful posts and pictures think you could be serious? I chalked it up to
frustration on your part. Understandable frustration.

Either I have an evil twin or I'm the evil twin. All my posts have
been questions or attempts at answering the questions of others. I've
never posted pictures.

Someone posted:

"You don't know much about Mark Healey, do you?"

This makes me think that someone believes that I'm posting something
evil.

Go figure.

Damn! I must be having another senior moment, and I'm not a senior! Who is
the Mark who has the beautiful pack of ferals he cares for? He posts here
and also in alt.binaries.pictures.animals.

Turns out I was giving you too much credit. However, you really didn't
intend to euthanize your noisy cat, so no harm done.
