Outsmarting the cat that wakes you up

Outsmarting the cat that wakes you up: "Gloria Stepps treasures her sleep. When her beloved 6-month-old kitten, Bongo, began interrupting her blissful slumber, she wondered what he wanted. At first, she thought he was just hungry so she gave him breakfast early. When her sleep disruption continued, she tried soothing him with verbal cooing.

Another night, when he destroyed some valuable items with his midnight kitten-crazies, she tried to calm him back to sleep with cuddling.

Mistake. Mistake. Mistake.

Bongo quickly figured out the secret to getting anything you want in life is to ask for it at 3 o'clock in the morning."
