I will be watching this post to see the answers! We have the same problem. We keep her out of the bedroom (because of what you discribe) but she scratches and meows at the door and jumps at the door handle. Hubby locked the door a few nights!!! hahahaha They say cats don't know time but she is at it at exactly the same time every morning. I did notice that she left us alone these last 4 days when we were not at work. It seems she is up most of the day not wanting to miss out on what we are doing so I guess she is more tired.... I've learned to sleep through the meowing but hubby just can't seem too. Hopefully they will grow out of it. I thought another cat might help since mine is alone and maybe they could keep each other company during the day and not sleep all day but so far hubby won't let me get another one.... Debbie
