My furkids usually sleep with me on the bed, however I get up early, usually between 3:00 and 4:30 AM, and there is no alarm clock. I always leave food out for them at night, as I have found that their eating habits and the amount they eat varies from day to day. After I have a first cup of coffee, I will feed my pride, by placing a small can of meaty cat food in their dry food pan, sort of mixing it in. Last night there were 8 furkids on my bed, all curled up and enjoying the electric blanket. When getting up that early, they seldom play or make noise after eating, yet they will begin to play at dawn. In fact, now (04:00) all 10 of them are in the computer room sleeping.
Tiger is the only one of my pride that will make me get up if she is exceptionally hungry, but never does she wake me up. Her eating habits are different than the others. I do not know what her problem is, but she must be fed separate from the others, because of them liking her food better. Normally, I will feed her some canned food with dry kitten chow in a pan. She is eating constantly, but never a lot at one time. Perhaps many of you remember last year at this time, how she used to barf up the regular food that is fed to the rest of the pride. It is only after I am awake whether I move around or not, that she begins her "dance" on me.
