Since my wife is away and since I just clipped Chris’s claws, I decided to let the cats sleep with me Monday night. Of course, that was a mistake. I should have known.
Chris started bothering me sometime before 3 AM. I suppose I should have been grateful that he lasted that long. If I was smart, I would have picked him up and put him out of the bedroom but I was just too tired to get up. He continued bothering me, on and off, (mostly on) until sometime after 5 a.m. when I decided that I had enough and I got out of bed.
I fed them breakfast, made coffee, and did a couple of other things and then went back in the bedroom and saw this.

I guess it was mission accomplished so no longer need to stay awake.
He FINALLY got you out of bed so he could move in! HAHA
Hugs, Pam
Ha! Maybe that was his genius plan all along.
One of my cats sleeps all over the bed or even under a blanket or two.
Chris and Floki are very fond of getting under the sheets.
he is the bro of phenny…. all have to be awake and he goes back to bed…
They should just let sleeping humans lie.
Katsu is our ‘alarm clock’… and a very dedicated one.

When Chris is locked out of the bedroom he will make enough noise outside the door to make sure we are up an hour before we need to get up.
I shall mention this to Katsu in case he gets locked out!

He looks so cute!
Much cuter than he was an hour earlier. 🙂
Here’s a weird leap — do you have sleep apnea or something? Does Chris think he’s helping you?
No, I sleep fine when Chris is not in bed with me. He is just very needy and has to always be touching somebody. I don’t think he realizes that his claws hurt.
I had a cat that would paw my eyes when I was asleep in the morning. I finally realized he was trying to get them to open! Luckily, he kept his claws sheathed. He was a really good cat; I miss him.
Chris puts his paw on my mouth and pulls. I eventually figured out he wants me to turn my head so he can bite my nose.
It’s a good thing you love him!
He is lucky he found parents that can put up with him.
Chris wants to have the bed alone, so he is bothering you until you give up, and he will sleep in your bed.
You may be right about that but I have to wonder what’s wrong with the other side of the bed?
Heh, he is a cat, your side is warm. Just a guess.
You have a good point. Maybe I should buy an electric blanket and put it on the other side of the bed.
You should try, if it doesn’t work, Chris is just a bad cat.
Maybe next time my wife goes away I will.
That is so funny. You should have disturbed him. 🙂
Too bad I don’t have claws to poke him with. 🙂
that is too adorable AND funny! He wanted YOUR spot and even has his head on the pillow! lol
I’m just starting to realize what a manipulative genius he is.
I thought it was always like that … That is obligatory cat behaviour, or cats do not cat right ..
🙂
I hope you crawled in next to him and got some shut eye.
I had to get ready for work but that would have been a good idea otherwise.
You could go in and tap him on the nose several times!
I probably shouldn’t bother him when he’s trying to sleep.
Chris had a plan all along.
It looks that way.
He wanted the bed to himself?
His plan worked.
It did. And how smug does he look on that bed?
