Every morning between 4am and 5am the website author interrupts my sleep. I’ve come to accept this as routine. When you think about it, to be awakened every morning at that time, especially when you are in need of rest, can be a bit tiring.
He is polite, I’ll give him that. In fact, I really can’t blame him. Over the years I have probably sent him a strong message that he is free to behave that way. You have probably guessed where I am going with this. The web site author (my cat) owns me.
I have taught him one thing, before he claws me to get my attention he will always bump me with his forehead first. It’s very charming. I have to take credit for this behavior because I started bumping him with my forehead some time ago. It took him awhile to figure it out, but he now knows this is a sign of affection, or at least a way to get my attention. He now freely returns the loving gesture… but only when he wants to be fed.
