I love how absolutely angry it looksâŚ
heâs a true pussycat.
I think that he was miffed that snack time was delayed by the photo session,
Iâm sorry, some might say theyâre just pets, but once youâve lived with one of them for 16/20 years, theyâre much more than that.
Little buddies!
Little mega buddies!
Our cat has become a major pain in the ass. Sheâs gotten old and has started snoring, so canât sleep in the same room as us anymore. I either put her in the bathroom or outside at night, but she always wants to scratch down the door at some point, which wakes me up. Fucking annoying. Moving houses soon. Iâm tempted to get rid of her, but donât have the heart to do so.
Anyone with a clever trick for a full nightâs sleep when you got a cat and sleep very lightly? I wake up from the smallest of creaks.
I have this issue myself with my partâŚOURâŚcat. Ear plugs is all I can offer.
Plus one should have a good pair anyway for loud gigs.
no no no no
Flip it on the sale section and buy a new cat with more modern features
Weed. Earplugs.
Is the cat overweight at all?
Wait for Overcat 2.0 to come out and then multitrack that mo-fo
+1 for earplugs.
My cat is 18 and regularly yowls in the middle of the night as he staggers around trying to get comfortable on old bones. I also wake up at a pinâs drop so I can sympathise. The other thing I do is put a âdoor snakeâ along the bottom of the door so it blocks more sound.
Lastly, if you can afford one of those âcat nestsâ (soft, round, fleece-lined cat beds) putting one near the door will tempt your little dudette to stay warm in there and not shred the door.
Good luck andâŚkeep the cat - itâs in your care.
enjoy those last annoying years with your loud cat. itâs part of the duty of cat ownership
You deal with it and get used to it. Thats part of being a cat owner. Not fair to put em out for stuff thats outta their paws.
My girl wanted to put our cats out of our room at night. I said no dice. Part of the family. She adapted.
I at one point in time had three cats and a dog (springer spanial) sleeping ON me. You just gotta deal with it.
Well, Iâm not going to put her to sleep, obviously, I wouldnât be able to do that. I have to say though, in my defense, I never wanted a cat, the missus just took care of her for a couple of weeks the summer we moved in here, because her owners had gone on vacation (without us knowing), and their other cat (our catâs daughter, had taken over her territory and chased her away). It obviously ended with the cat moving in, against my wishes, but here we are.
Thanks for all the good suggestions, guys, I really appreciate it! Earplugs hasnât worked well for me in the past, but Iâll give it another go. I think we might build some sort of high nest for her in the living room in the new apartment, hopefully sheâll like that and stay there during the night. Having her in our bedroom is just a no go - cats are cool, but I badly need my sleep as well.
Make sure theyâre real-deal ear plugs, not some foam crap they sell next to gum.
