My cats are unwilling to let me get more than 2 or 3 hours sleep. This has happened every day I have slept at home for the past week. I don't know what is up with them, but they keep doing things that require me to get up and chase them out of things. I considered locking them in the bathroom this morning, that's how bad it got.

They are pulling down my flowery curtain, climbing up on things they're not supposed to, trying to eat my plants, demanding food, demanding more food, scratching me, knocking things over, making noise, running around the house, scratching boxes under the bed, meowing, meowing, meowing. It's maddening. I've even been getting out of bed at 6am to feed them their precious wet food in the hopes that they will stop and I can go back to bed. Nope.

I have gotten so little sleep this week that my joints are unable to recover from the day before, and my knees and wrists are screaming. They have been for 2 days now. They would stop with a good night's sleep.

I have a job interview at 2pm and I'm going to make a total ass of myself, because I'm exhausted and can hardly function. Yay.

Naughty kitties! Reading this makes me glad that my allergies preclude me from owning them.

Now, now, I love my kitties. They just drive me nuts sometimes.

Mini-me...we do not gnaw on our kitty.

I /love/ that part!

Yes, Baby Kitty has been subject to many a time-out after some rampage through the apartment.

Good luck with the interview!

Thanks. It was okay. We'll see if I get called for the second interview next week. On the plus side, the Clinical Director (who is doing the second interviews) worked with me on my first internship, so hopefully that will help.

They are pulling down my flowery curtain -- Silly human. That's what you get for hanging really cool cat toys in the doorway.

trying to eat my plants take contact paper (like what one would use to line drawers and cabinets), remove the covering off the adhesive, and lay it sticky-side up around the plants. Cats hate sticky paws and soon your plants will be chew-free. You could probably stop/remove it once the cats have been deterred.

scratching boxes under the bed lay the remaining sticky paper under the bed.

getting out of bed at 6am to feed them their precious wet food convert them to dry food and leave a self-feeder out.

I'm going to make a total ass of myself ... as long as you don't try to hide empty food containers under the inteviewer's furniture, I'm sure you will do fine.

They have dry food. It is out all the time, and they are free-range eaters. But A. got them in the habit of eating wet food in the mornings, and they get really nasty now if I'm here and they don't get it when he would normally wake up (6-6:30am).

Thanks - I will probably try the contact paper. And HA HA HA about the food.

Good luck with the interview and the spoiled cats! Ours have been little monsters lately too...well, not Ella. She just follows me around meowing her little head off for no apparent reason...

Your cats are so cute. :)

Louie wants to know when you're coming back to visit him again! ;-)

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

I just love your cats to bits. I should visit soon - I have no excuse not to!

Tommy Jones & The Shondells - Crimson and Clover <------ a long time ago you wanted a song from everyone that reminded us of you or something and that came on and I was like, "JUDE!!!!" so there ya go!

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

Interesting. Can I ask why?

"I don't hardly know her.. but I think I could love her.." ;)

HA HA HA HA - awesome. :)

[smithee.livejournal.com]

have you considered locking yourself in the bathroom?

[judecorp.livejournal.com]

My bed wouldn't fit in there.

I could lock myself in yours?

Cats....there's even a musical

It was very interesting to read everyone's little comments. I found one of the guys that responded to this was very interesting. He had all the right suggestions and of course being witty while giving the suggestions...now to the real subject....all i can say is that my cat is really annoying and that i am glad i only have one...she always is meowing all around the house..and i hate the fact that that she always gets in my way and races me to the top of the stairs all the time :) especially when se wins:D...although all in all my brother is the one that feeds her..because when i feed her..well i over feed her :) so i am not allowed to take care of her..anyway enough of my blabbering..i love cats even though they may be annoying.
