4:30 AM: cat uncharacteristically scratches at our bedroom door. I wake up wanting to kill the cat.
4:31 AM: I get up, open door and shoo cat away.
4:31:30 AM: cat persists - I have thoughts of wearing her pelt as a kerchief.
4:32 AM: cat still scratches, throws a couple meows in for good measure. I start to wonder if this is a “pet saves family from burning house” situation. I get paranoid, open door, follow cat downstairs where she has me watch her eat. No fire. No home invasion. No alien invasion.
4:33 AM: I fill a Dixie cup with water and when she comes back and scratches she gets a fast bath in the face.
Then the baby woke up at 5 AM. It’s gonna be a long day. The cat is taking a nap. What a jerk.
