No because I think Luna looks at nighttime as partytime, she's ready for action, if I'm awake or not she doesn't seem to mind- sometimes I awake to find her using my back as a walkway, and occasionally will awake to find her sitting on my chest staring at me.
It 's really funny when Mani 'tells' me it's time to go to bed. He will come out of my bedroom and meow at me around bed time, then I get up and tell him, 'come on, lets go to bed' he will follow me in the bedroom, hop on the bed, meowing and purring. Then I forget something, he follows me back and forth to my room and the bathroom and then back to my room. Then once I am settled in bed, he will either seek to get under the covers and nestle by my legs or my body or he will expect me to go through our nightly routine of petting. He will stand on the side of my body on my hip, I will pet him from head to tail, then he will turn around and I do the same until I stop....he doesn't stop, I would be doing it all night if it were up to him. Another one he does is sit on my bed with me while I am getting ready, and he will stretch his paw either to my upper chest, my cheek, or even my lips or he will simply paw my arm and meow. Anyway, after that, he lays right in front of me between my movie and me and insists I pet him or scratch between his ears or around his face purring very strongly. Then, after about 2 minutes, he will bound off the bed, go out to the living room and howl 3 - 10 times, then he is quiet the rest of the night until I wake up.......then he is in my face again wanting to be petted.....Love my boy....Mani.
That kind of makes your "life before Mani" seem rather boring.. doesn't it.
I thought my girls were bad about bed time, but yours gets the prize, I think.
My bigger (22 lbs) and older house cat doesn't flick a whisker at bed time but he doesn't have a bit of problem waking me up at what is now three AM (4:00 AM real time.
He will pat my face with his paw, purr in my ear and sometime he lays on my back -- that feels pretty good because he weighs so much, so I don't mind getting woke up before 5:00 AM.
And that's the kicker --- I'm awake at five AM nearly every day --- I think his alarm call antics are nothing more than hi-jinx.
When my Rottweiler was alive, he would stick his cold wet nose in my ear every morning-----
Not really. But, they usually tell me when it is time to get up. Yesterday, Electra was ready for the "morning parade" down the stairs. She lead the parade and half way down, I realized that I forgot something so I went back up as she reached the bottom. As I was doing what I had forgot before going down, there was Electra again-back upstairs complaining to me that I didn't follow her downstairs.
We have a black, short hair domestic named Bianca who must have some Siamese in her heritage. She never meows, but makes whiny talking noises. We will hear her down the hallway talking up a storm. Cute, kind of...
Mine do not tell me when it's time for bed. They do, however tell me when it's time to get off the compu...
Mine have figured out that the easiest, best way to give the hint that I need to pay attention to them is to hop up and lounge on the laptop keyboard. I use a standard one, hooked in and elevate the laptop, much less aches from the staring down, but when they settle all sorts of interesting, sometimes educational and surprising things I didn't know about how to do things (well, if I knew what keys they hit) happen. And they won't quit so when I'm working with frustration trying to find back where I was, they're ready for the next nap. It's just easier to play since they know they rule.
My cat doesn't tell me to go to bed, but when I let her sleep with me, she sure tells me when to get up!
