We have 2 cats, both 3 years old and have always been spoiled!
We had a baby last year and it has changed the logistics of where we sleep in the house.
My OH snores very loudly and I cannot sleep in the same room as him. I am such a light sleeper. He has been to the professionals about it, he cannot be operated on, and he was given a "mouth guard" to help with the snoring, but it hasnt helped. I cannot sleep in the same room as him.
I was sleeping in with DC, which was fine. But now he is getting bigger, it is better that he has his own room. He sleeps better and for longer when he is on his own in the room.
The only other place to sleep is in the sitting room, where the cat flap is located. We have both tried sleeping in the sitting room but are constantly disturbed by the coming and going of the cats.
Would it be cruel to lock the catflap at night so that we can both get a good night sleep? Its getting warmer now, so would it be so bad that they were locked out all night? We bought a little wooden cat house for them for this reason but they do not use it. I have tried locking them out one night but they spent the whole time banging their heads against the flap...keeping me awake!!
Any advice / tips?
