Let me Sleep?!?
I have a 11mth old tiger... She is a great loveable playful cat but lately
she has been waking up between 3am and 5am. She meows and plays around in the bedroom. Playing in the trash, jumping on the dressers and knocking off what ever she can... I used to be able to close her out of the bedroom, but now she just sits at the door scratching at it and meowing... I have tryed putting her in the basement but she just scratches that door and rattles it too. I have tryed tiring her out before bed... It even comes down to me sometimes going sleep on the couch so my boyfriend and I can sleep a little.. .. I do not know what else to do? My boyfriend and I are so frustrated.. I would appreciate any suggestions. |

Put her in the room that is farthest away from your bedroom with her box and food and water and toys, get a HEPA filter for the bed room you sleep in (to drown out her noise) and/or maybe use earplugs. |

My cat, Bubba, wakes me up at 4:30 sharp by licking my eyelids if I forget to leave some BubbaChow out for him when I go to bed... Claude |

I would appreciate any suggestions. The only room you need to worry about "cat proofing" is your bedroom. She wants attention. If you remove the trashcan in your room, remove anything breakable from the dresser tops, let her roam around on those surfaces without fear of her breaking things, she'll eventually tire of it. ...And then figure out another way to get your attention. -- Cheryl |
