Cats are early risers… and masters of manipulation. If your cat cries for you to wake up before your alarm, these expurrt cat owners are here to help you have a more peaceful meowrning.

Dog owners may have to take their pets out multiple times per day to let them get out energy and do their business, but at least they let you sleep in in the mornings. Cats, on the other hand, are the best (or worst, depending on how you look at it) alarm clock in the universe. If you want to remember to do something at a specific time every day, give your cat a treat during that time. We guarantee you that your cat will remember the exact time within in a few days and will nag at you daily around that same time for you to give them their daily treat.

Our pawrent's problem today is one that most of us cat owners expurrience: getting woken up at the crack of dawn by your tiny, screaming fur baby.

Her cat continues to wake her up very early and it's driving her crazy, sound furmiliar?

Well, our trusty cat community came to the rescue. With tips and tricks that worked for themselves, we're sure this pawrent is going to get a full night's sleep soon. And if not, well, there's always earplugs.
