I’m not going to rehome them. And I do love them in a way.
But I realised this morning I get no pleasure out of them at all and to be honest I wish I’d never got them.
They demand food as soon as I get up but it’s somehow not enough. After I’ve had a shower and am trying to get ready they are mewing round my feet wanting a second breakfast 
One of them miaows so loudly - a real yowl of a sound and he does it at 2/3 am for me to put him out (can’t put a cat flap in - it’s a bottom floor apartment in a listed building) and it really disturbs my sleep terribly.
The eating, they just never stop. Even when their food bowls are full every time I stand up they thunder through to the kitchen and stand over their bowls miaowing.
I feel horrible as I feel irritated by them.
AIBU?
To not be enjoying my cats?

The problem here is clear. Your title, OP, says 'your' cats.
No. "Your" implies ownership.
No one owns a cat.
"I own a cat" = oxymoron.
Seven cats deign to live with me. I am their slave. They have their own entrance. They have dried food and twice a day wet food appears - currently Gourmet Soup is in favour. Water and cat milk are always available.
Your thinking is skewed: once you realise they are the master and you the slave, your problem will, like Dreamies, disappear 
Bastard! I bet it was the look of love really
Black cat stretched out on black rug..... me.....definitely not a look of love
