Kitty-Cat Wake-up Call 

Our cats are so funny.
Noe has a wonderful ritual of giving us the "Kitten wake-up call" every morning. She usually comes in first at 7:30am. (when Dick's alarm clock goes off, if he set it) She'll give a cute little "mew" (that's different from any other "meow" or "mew" that she may say any other time during the day) and will hop up on the bed. Then, she'll slowly walk up to one of us (I think she comes to me first) purring. When she reaches my face, she'll gently start "knitting" with her paws, and will start licking my lips. Soooo cute. Depending on the day, we'll respond by petting her, or sometimes, we'll be too tired to acknowledge her. If we don't respond, she'll leave after about 5 minutes. Here's the best part: every 1/2 hour she'll come in again, and will do the same thing. Yep, every half hour, until we wake up and get out of bed. It's really cute, and such a nice way to wake up.

If we're reallly lazy, we'll get the "Big Cat wake-up call". Meaning if we're not up and about by 9:00 or so, Marcel will walk in, jump up on the bed, walk up onto one of our chests, and lay down. Now remember, Marcel is about 15 lbs! He's quite heavy. That'll usually do the trick, and we'll all wake up, and get out of bed.

So much better than waking up to a regular alarm clock! :)
