The cat is a bastard. There is no cure. He just is.

He sleeps all day (when not demanding good - usually hourly). Then at night he likes to go out.

And in.

And out.

And in.

And out.

And in.

And out.

'Oh get a cat flap' I hear you cry, but the door is unsuitable and even if there was one the kitchen door is closed at night and Bastard Cat has an irrational hatred of closed doors.

So...

He's out and decides he needs to come in. So he shouts and wails loudly until someone gets up and opens a door or window.

Repeat every 2 hours.

And reverse.

I think that if the bathroom window is left open he can come and go and all I need to do is wake up enough to open the bedroom door. Then Bastard Cat can come in and snuggle my head.

H thinks that is just inviting him to shout at the bedroom door. And it should be closed.

But then I have to wake up enough to trek downstairs to let him in.

Please decide who is right.

Thanks

Oh no! RTFT wannabe

I am so sorry, poor BC Sad

Toooldtobearsed · 16/06/2014 18:10

AYC - has he gone? Not sure from your post. Whatever, I am truly sorry. My pain in the bum comes and goes at will, but still insists that 4:30am is 'getting up time'

Hope BC is still with us, if not, then sorry for inappropriate post, and take care.

I am afraid cats are a law into themselves.

That is all.

thebodylovesspring · 16/06/2014 18:13

Ooohhh so very very sorry op. Just realised. Hugs hugs hugs.

AtYourCervix · 16/06/2014 18:23

Take care AYC, and so sorry.

Oh no Sad

So sorry to. Hear this news {{{hugs}}}

Get your kitty some Fenaway kitty drugs to chill it out a bit. Maybe it will stop being so annoying when medicated. Alternatively just put the cat out at night - with food and water. Maybe it'll get the message that out means out, and not in n out. Persistence is key here.

cheepcheep · 16/06/2014 18:45

Only just realised that he's passed away, so sorry x

slithytove · 16/06/2014 18:48

Sorry OP :(

Rest in peace Bastard Cat.

Fitting he has a thread for his memory x

BerylStreep · 16/06/2014 20:00

Poor BC.

Poor you. Tis always tough when that happens.

dementedma · 16/06/2014 20:59

Oh, poor bastardcat. And poor you.x

MrsChickPea · 16/06/2014 21:05

Oh no. Tears here. I am so sorry. Was so hopeful. Are you going to have a proper cat funeral. They are good actually. Help a bit. And you get a nice wooden thing to put Bastard Cat in (to smile at/cry at from time to time). A very sad day. AtYourCervix - lots of cuddles heading your way. xxxx

girliefriend · 16/06/2014 21:06

Made me think of this Grin

girliefriend · 16/06/2014 21:08

Oh no sorry - should have read the full thread. Poor bastard cat Sad

ballsballsballs · 16/06/2014 21:29

I'm so sorry AYC. Sad

enormouse · 16/06/2014 21:52

Oh AYC Thanks I'm so sorry.
Poor BC

CSIJanner · 16/06/2014 22:00

Oh no AYC - RIP bastard cat. As much as they irritate with the mewing, sitting on your head and coughing up hair balls on the worktops, they are much loved members of the family. Am so sorry :(

EvaBeaversProtege · 16/06/2014 22:47

Oh, just read this thread.

RIP BC. Thanks

mindthegap79 · 16/06/2014 23:03

Oh no, so sad, thinking of you op Thanks

MinkyWinky · 17/06/2014 09:43

So sorry AYC. I read the thread empathising all the way about cats and sleep deprivation and the worry they cause when they come back late then saw your post. It's my biggest fear when batcat is late coming back. I'm so sorry about BC.
