My cat scratches on my bed at about 4am. Funny - but some days she lets me sleep. I end up getting up and putting her in the front of the house. She has a cat buddy - but maybe the buddy isn't willing to play at 4am either. She also scratches on the bed before she jumps up. I try to let her know she doesn't need to do that - but she thinks i don't know what i am talking about. Love her anyway.
