is it fair?

[Breadcat24]

To wake my cat up when she sleeps all day- because she spends all night waking me up?

No.

But be prepared for a response that is both brutal and disproportionate.

I once caught DH poking our Tortie in the side (gently) while muttering 'meow meow meow'. I asked him what he was doing and his response was 'That's what she does at 4 AM to me'.

It did not end well for him.

I just read my post to DH and he commented; 'You can outwit a cat.... But you can't out-arm them'.

I did it once. She shot me an evil like I’d never seen before and we weren’t friends again until dinner time 😂

Mine are put to bed and ignored all night.

I definitely play a lot with them in the evenings as well as cuddles.

They love their routine!

It's your fault for sleeping at the wrong time. Just change your routine so you sleep in the day and are ready to play at night - sorted!

You can't do that OP though I absolutely feel your pain 😂 They are crepuscular and need lots of little naps. Is she indoors or outdoors?

As long as you are prepared to wake with her sitting threatening on your chest!

Don't argue with a cat. It won't end well.
