It's all fun and games until you've realized it's been 3 hours, you've not got anything done except doom scrolling on your phone and your cat is still asleep on you.
be honest, the only thing that changes otherwise is the amount of cat hair on your pants
We don't make the rules...
Sometimes being trapped is just fine. However, if it's not, my spouse and I have an SOS agreement, where the other will go to the kitchen and rattle the treat jar. Cats get treats, it's their decision to get up, and we can make our escape. Win/win.
Our one remaining cat is deaf so we have to hold food/treats near his nose until the smell wakes him up.
I hope he has many years of happy life left.
One of our's is mostly white and we're pretty sure he has some deafness, too. But he can still hear the treat jar as long as we rattle it loudly enough.
Murphy is around 20 years old at this point with chronic kidney disease and a balance problem that we have to give him a daily pill for for the rest of his life. He is definitely deaf because we've tried waking him up with loud noises. 😆
We thought the end was nearing because his appetite greatly decreased, but after trying different things we finally found a food he will scarf down that isn't bad for his kidneys.
He seems back to his normal self again these days. Who knows how long he'll live yet? We've heard some cats live past 30.
However many more days he has left with us, we intend to fill them with love, pets, and cuddles.
Good for you, and I'm rooting for Murphy.
