My Morning Alarm Clock

My cat Courtney is my alarm clock in the morning. If I’m not up by at least 8:00 she’ll definitely make me painfully aware. I found this little video on YouTube and thought it was spot on:

Courtney does all of the above, and then some. You see, she’s a “passive aggressive” cat. Sometimes she’ll sit kind of close to one of her siblings just to annoy them, but far enough away to make it seem like she’s just sitting there randomly. Or she will sleep in Raz’s bed just to piss him off and we all know she likes sleeping on the cat condo much better. You get my drift. So, aside from pawing at my face and walking on top of me, she will get on my bed-side table and proceed to try to knock stuff off. Yes, very passive aggressive. The sound of her trying to do this, makes me move and push whatever object back on my bed-side table. This gets her excited; jumping on me and trying to bite my fingers. I don’t know why she thinks that biting my finger will make me get up and feed her. Apparently, Courtney has never heard … “don’t bite the hand that feeds you”.

Courtney in my little waste basket.
