To think cats are not pets, more fluffy forms of torture.

4.15am every bloody morning for the last week..she's taking the piss. It's survival of the fittest, who can crack first. She repeatedly paws at the things on my bedside table until they fall on the floor, pulls the lamp cord and walks all over you purring.

I have made the mistake of opening one eye to find myself being eyeballed and it's game over. Tiggy 0 bastard cat 1

There's a cat no our street that I think most of the neighbours would like to disappear in mysterious circumstances. Yowling at all hours of the bloody night.

The bastards who own it need to keep it in at night, instead of sending it out to yowl outside other people's houses.

We have 2, I was first woken up by 1 tugging at my hair whilst holding his paw on my head then the 4.15 game.

We keep them in at night, I'm considering hoofing them both out tonight, it's beyond a joke!!

On a plus note my cats are both so stupid a stairgate actually stops them climbing upstairs. This means my cats never get into the bedrooms.

juniper they sound like my ragdoll. Nothing in between those ears -or so he lets us believe as he plots world domination

mine accidently trampled over my head at the weekend and when i pretended not to wake, with the duvet over my head, a black and white paw came tentatively poking down a 'slot' into the duvet and daintly jabbed at my eye.

I got up and fed her. Cat 1 Me 0

Has anyone seen this?

Our cat used to chap the letterbox at approx 4am to be let in / out depending on where he deigned to be.

When I bought my first house as a graduate (back in the dark ages when you could get on the housing ladder as a graduate) one of my criteria was that there was a door that could be shut somewhere between the cat flap and my bedroom, and that said door had hard floors on either side of it so that carpets couldn't be destroyed in protest.

I am thus resistant to night time training. I do, however, give in to BoyCat quite easily during the day if I am at home, mostly because he has a good line in "it's not me, you know. I love you lots and have just come to sing you a nice song. It's the evil criminal mastermind GirlCat. She made me come and ask, and she is going to beat the crap out of me if I go back empty handed even though she is half my size "

Shanty that video is great. The distain on the cats faces

slanty thanks for that! dogs are so stupid, but it's very cute at the end.

*disdain

My cat Dylan has ruined the upstairs carpet! I always try and lock him in the kitchen at night otherwise he wakes me at 4.30 ish!! He has learnt to hide from us at bedtime. But I love the massive ginger thing! Often find feathers/fur but no bodies...except once when a smell wouldn't go and I had to investigate. yuk!!!

My cat hides under the sofa throw so she can rip the crap out of my ankles when I sit down.

You can see why sometimes I have slept with no diver rather than move her.

My DP is the food man as I am pregnant and can't stand the smell of cat food (ha ha gullible DP) so our two cats totally ignore me in the morning and concentrate on waking him up.
It's awesome and I plan to continue this arrangement for as long as possible

Sorry for double post

And the double stupid autocorrect mistake. I don't often sleep with divers, mostly duvets

Our NDN's cats like to use our house as a cut-through from front to back (and vice versa) to save them having to jump over the fence; this happens a lot when I have the back door open during the day. Last week one of them came into the kitchen, had a mooch around and then trotted down the hall expecting me to follow, to let him out of the front door. I didn't play ball, so a few minutes later he came back, looked at me and yowled and then went out of the back door. I followed him out, he yowled again, looked at me and then gave a meaningful look towards the shed next to the fence as though to say "pick me up and put me on top of the shed, because I CBA to jump up there".

Needless to say I didn't, whereupon he gave me a haughty look and gracefully leapt on top of the shed and over the fence.

Here's my Fluffy Raggies. Rag Dolls. Brother and sister. They are very much not allowed in the bedrooms at night. Gus (on left) is a total nutter and charges up and down the stairs growling before going to sleep, while his sister sits at a safe distance with a face like this -

This might be a stupid question, but can you shut your bedroom door?

I once stayed at a friend's, on the sofa, and was treated every day to a greyhound puppy flinging itself on me at the crack of dawn. It was adorable though – all flying bendy limbs and huge soft paws and ears –so I loved it all forgave it.

Mine loves to try to wake me too, if he knows I am awake that is it, he wont let up until he gets me up! I just lay perfectly still and never, ever look at him. I also keep as much as me under the duvet as possible because he will play bite any part showing.

He jumps all over DH as soon as his alarm goes off because he knows he is going to get food

He also loves to play when I change the beds, hiding under the bed an pouncing on my hand as I tick the sheets round.

My cat has a leg fetish. She likes to 'playfully' grab legs. Once took three months and five courses of escalating strength antibiotics to heal up my right leg - I now wear heavy duty jeans all the time. She also does 'kisses with teeth' (because she loves me so much and she terrorises my grandkids, not letting them into the bathroom when they're hopping around dying for a wee.

Of course, I love her to bits (no-one else does - she's pussy no-mates).

ARGHHHH! The little shit..I have just found a dead mouse behind a box. Why do I love these creatures?!
