Dearest La Doof Kitton...
it's nice to know that you're not STUCK between the drawers under the bed and the wall...
For the love of pete, will you quit crawling back there?
I spent like 3 hours this weekend, trying to get you out, disassembling furniture, baiting with treats/milkrings, trying to scare you out w/ the vaccuum. I thought you were stuck. since you managed to get out repeatedly, I know you're not stuck, but I"m afraid that I"m going to roll over wrong, the mattress will shift, and you WILL get stuck/crushed.
I have put boards over every place I can put boards...you can fit through mouse-sized cracks...so the only way you'll stop going back there is if you decide to quit being an ass.
The compromise I'd like to offer... QUIT suddenly having a paw, at 4 am, snake from between the bed and the mattress and grab a lock of my hair. It's not funny and my screaming wakes Buffy.
Do that and...hmm...and I'll give you El Gato's treats for the next week or 2 (sorry El Gato). And I'll give you Buffy's balloon.
Turn down my compromise and I"ll hold you down while she pets you w/ sticky toddler hands.
We're taking it to the mattresses.
love
momma.

Oh La Doof-
I appreciate your antics but nothing is cute at 3am.

another tired Pestie
Our cats spend the night in our finished basement - because the 4am play with hair, jump on face, claw at the door, or stick paw under door and giggle it for hours routine - has gotten soooooo old!
One time, with our bedroom door shut & an open window in the living room, they clawed through the screen. They both got outside, and sat outside our open bedroom window and meowed their loudest. The 3am trip outside to go round up the cats was the last time they spent the night upstairs.
So, at bedtime, just like the dog goes to the crate, the kitties head to the basement for dinner & bed as well.
