One of mine figured out that rattling the window blind wakes us up.

Then she taught the kitten to do it too.

They tag team us.

The comics forgot the panel where the cat gives a few fake bops just to make sure they are awake.

Is she a cat?

Better than the sound of a cat puking waking you up in the middle of the night!

My one cat Ralph does this, except he's lazy and just plops down on my head and falls asleep instead.

Yeah, I got lucky with my cat too. If I sleep in, she sleeps in. Even if she’s not sleeping in, she just curls up in my arm and will sit there, just awake and chillin. When I go to bed, she’s ready for bed. She gets in, curls up in my arm, and is ready for sleep.

When she was a kitten, she was definitely bad about playing with my face at random hours of the night. But I sort of trained her to not wake me up. She wouldn’t eat until after I woke up-like, a few hours. So she never associated me waking up with food. It was just sort of the routine that she ate away from bedtime. Boom, perfect cat.

My dog does this. Sometimes I wake up with his nose an inch away from my eyeball

My wife just showed me that for the first time when I sent her the comic.

She sounds like a keeper.

Replace the cat with a medium sized dog and that's me

Ours bite my wife arms to wake her up, then she gets mad at me because they never do that to me.
