Cats make good alarm clocks

this is annoyingly true...
Last night I didn't get any sleep. I am being tested on a sleep disorder to find out why. But ANYWAYS...
I FINALLY fall asleep, it was around 4am. The next thing I know, it is 7:30am and the CATS ARE HUNGRY!!!
I usually feed them around 9:00, but then again cats don't use human clocks. Well, I wanted to wait till 9 so I try to go back to sleep. They didn't like that =P
Now I have 8 pets altogether, 7 cats and 1 dog. One cat is gated off since the older cat always tries to attack him.
So I am in my bed TRYING to sleep when I hear meows and ruffs and the scratchy scratchies of claws on hardwood floors. Well, my dog is pretty old, and it is hard for him to jump onto my bed. So to make him stop barking I pick him up and put him in the corner of my bed. He just curls up and falls asleep, no problems there. Now with the cats, it's a different story...
6 cats are now in my room, two are on my bed, one sticking its but in my face while kneading my stomach, the other sitting on my head letting her tail fall on my face and continues to twitch it.
Another cat is playing with one of those toys with the ball that is inside the round thing so the cat can bat it and make it go around and around and around. THAT was annoying!
Another cat started chewing on one of their catnip mousies, brought it up on the bed and dropped it on my face while the other cats already on my bed started batting the thing around. Another cat gets up on my bed and meows in my ear. And this is the cat that meows the longest! I timed it once and it was a total of 8 seconds long! Plus it's VERY high pitched!
Then the last cat also jumps up now, and scares all the other cats away, and then proceeds to actually CHEW on my Foo Man Chu! And then all of a sudden I hear chocking, gagging, and I watch in horror as my dog throws up on my blanket ><
Hopefully tomorrow morning will be better and I can sleep late. =P

"I'd bring my cat!" He said.
"What? Why would you bring your cat?" The other asked.
"My cat can tell time." He answered.
"Uh, how can he do that?" The other boy asked.
The boy, who had been holding his cat all this time, pulls his cat's tail; making him screech very loudly.
"Hey! Shut your cat up! Its 5:30 A.M.!" A random man yelled to him.
heheh. Seriously though, while I admire those who have like 10 zillion furry critters, how much is more than enough I sometimes feel like asking multi-pet owners.
After all, many of us in America here by now are of course hurting financially... and, quite badly, at that, in fact.
So, not only is more animals more responsibility, it's also more expenses.... not to mention more distraction at times when you just wanna sleep in a little. (As me thinks a certain someone now knows).
Heheh. j/k
