Max, our tabby cat and also the “baby”, has a daily morning ritual now: around 7:30am to 8:00am he’ll scratch at our door to come in, jump up onto our bed (always from the foot of the bed) and climbs onto Fi’s stomach for his daily morning cuddles.
Once he’s had enough cuddles, he’ll jump off the bed onto the ground and jump back onto my side to signal to me to open the door for him to go back out.
I’ve even disconnected our alarm clock now that we have our furbaby alarm.
