How do we make it stop?!

Over the last few days our cat has attempted to summon Satan at 6am.

How do we go about vaulting his religious exorcises?
My husband is not really getting into the ritual and needs it to stop.

Do you mean shouting and skwaking? Our cats do this at this time of year because it's lighter and the birds are out . It's quite annoying 😬😬🙈

Yes! I think that's the best words to describe it.
He doesn't want to go out! Although this morning after getting up and going downstairs my husband put him out 😂

He just genuinely seems to want us up and out of bed!

It's like when the kids get up early because of the light mornings .. get some blackout blinds !

A friend of mine is an archbishop. I'll get him to send his cats round. They are very holy. They attend mass and morning and evening prayer. They will put your boy on the straight and narrow.

@gubbsywubbsy there are blackout blinds this is the freaky bit 😂 he's actually worse than the 5 & 2 yo they adjusted fine.

@Toddlerteaplease thank you. I think that's the only thing for it.

Betty & Zena will make a holy hour for your cats intentions. (The chapel windowsill is a lovely place for a snooze)

Mine suggests summoning at 4am instead. And then clawing your Hoomans ear because "it not working, you no hear me"
Yes, yes, I did bloody hear you bellowing in my ear, I'm just not shifting to feed you AngryHmm

Contraceptionismyfriend · 03/04/2019 12:56

@YesQueen Yes! He's taken to double checking that husband is paying attention 😂 hilariously he doesn't require my participation.

He also fights the evil cat in our bedroom mirror. Which sounds fantastic at all hours of the morning

Mine just wanders around yowling and occasionally practicing his emo crying face in the mirror Hmm

5am. Five bloody A fucking M. And you know what really gets my goat? They have a working cat flap. They have full bowls of both dry and wet food downstairs. What they want is for DH someone to walk downstairs with them and point to the bowls of food next to the cat flap, so that they can go "wow - food" Every day.

I lock mine in the kitchen. We had to turn the door handle to vertical so he doesn’t jump up and twang it for 45 minutes straight.

The door has to be locked because if you sit on the console table you can pull the handle towards you and run upstairs to push your face into mommy’s face at 4:30am.
