| 2200.1 | "'Morning Mom" | MORGAN::MISSELHORN | | Fri Feb 03 1989 12:34 | 12 |
| We usually keep the bedroom doors closed at night since all 3
kitties take over the bed and I'm too soft to move them (I end up
sleeping all twisted or in a ball). It drives Bruce crazy that
I sacrifice a good night's sleep for the cats.
Anyway, we have a radio alarm and as soon as it goes off, the
crew is at the door scratching and whimpering to get in. Once let
in (usually by Bruce), Melody jumps on the bed, walks up to my
face and sticks her nose right up to my nose and purrs. Sometimes,
if she is real hungry, she walks around the pillow and talks.
Other times she sits on top of my stereo speaker and just stares
at me.

| 2200.2 | Wake up! Noowww! | SWAT::COCHRANE | Scattering like light. | Fri Feb 03 1989 12:55 | 14 |
| The crew stays in the basement during the night, since I have asthma
and four of them on the bed all night would probably kill me. My
husband gets up first, and they are all waiting at the door for
him when he lets them up. Dream, Charm and Niniane immediately
come upstairs for cuddles with Mom. If I'm not quite awake, Dream
jumps on the bed, walks over to me, looks me right in the face and
says, "AIOW!!", once, very loudly. My own personal alarm! Dream
gets first cuddles, then Charm, then Niniane. Then they leave and
Boogie jumps up on the bed and announces her presence by walking
on my face.
What a bunch!!!

| 2200.3 | Sneaking around... | CURIE::SADLER_TEMP | | Fri Feb 03 1989 13:43 | 14 |
| We used to keep our bedroom shut to Kitty-Lou, so that she wouldn't
come in in the morning to tell us it was time to get up. In the
summer she always got up with the birds, and thus woke us up to
tell us the birds were up. But in the winter the birds would get
up late, Kitty-Lou would get up late, and we would be the first
to get up.
So when we awoke, we had to whisper, tiptoe, etc. if we wanted
solitude. The minute Kitty-Lou heard us, it was scratch, scratch,
meow, meow, LET ME IN THERE!! She would be really embarassed when
we got as far as the living room when WE woke HER up. Then she would
squint, smile, and say to herself: "I wasn't REALLY sleeping, and I
was only PRETENDING not to hear you sneaking up on me! --silly humans..."

| 2200.4 | Portia and Elmo should take lessons from Oscar | WITNES::HANNULA | Round Up the Usual Suspects | Fri Feb 03 1989 15:36 | 14 |
| Elmo is definitely a morning cat. As soon as it's past midnight,
Elmo lets us know that it is NOW morning. Elmo's routine is a series
of walks around the bed, of course always stopping to start in on
his sucking. At around 3:00 AM, he usually gets thrown outside.
Portia then starts in around 5:00 AM. Her routine settles around a
jingle bell toy that she got from Santa - she always finds a way
to bat that thing UP the stairs to our bedroom. She's usually thrown
outside by 5:15. Oscar is the only cat with any class. He waits
until we are up, and when I'm getting dressed, he wil saunter in
to the bedroom and start rolling around on the bed with the "Pat
Me" look in his eyes. Of course, I always end up giving him a morning
cuddle session.

Sounds like Oscar is the smart one of the bunch!

| Of course Oscar is the smart one of the bunch - he's the only one
who took after his mother as opposed to his father.
