Rose is Rose by Don Wimmer and Pat Brady for October 11, 2016

…and 1:00am and 3:am or whenever it suits

That could get “unhealthy”.

One cat I had, Kellie, would wait until my alarm went off. Then she would jump up on the bed, crawl under the covers, and snuggle with me for about 5 minutes. She would purr and rub, but when HER time was up, she’d give my finger a gentle nip, get up, and leave the room. Kellie did this every morning.

I do this every morning at the same time.

I get the head bump or the pat on the back. That tells me it’s time for a pet.

Looks like Peekaboo needs to get her claws trimmed.

I get a tap on the cheek. . .or a “crawl on”. . .she tries to walk on every bump in the bed. . .

I would already be up.

A cat that came into my care for a while started with the idea that toes were for attacking with partially-withdrawn claws and teeth – she met with a steady leg sweep, landed on the floor, and gave one small “Oh.”, as if realizing “House rules different here.”

Our cat was not allowed in the bedroom at night. As soon as the alarm rang, though, she’d be pawing under the door to get in. (Yes, there was room under it to do that.)

My secret to battle the 4 AM raids is a water gun,,,,after a few nights I only have to let them see it,,,,,,

that cat would surely have to find another place to live if it ever did that to me. bye bye cat….

I’M the one who wakes up the kitties in the morning.

Mutant cat or a GMO designer pet with flex-appendages.

anyone notice the look on Rose’ face?
