My older cat, Ming, who is 13 now doesn't know he's a cat. And he wants everything done on his schedule. In the mornings if I'm not awake when he thinks I should be, he gets right up in my face and stares at me until my eyes open. Usually the cat breath and the whiskers tickling my nose does the trick. If I try to fake him out he will just reach up and bite the end of my nose. He wants to eat and he wants to eat NOW :lol: :lol: I humor him because he is getting older and frail and I know he won't be around that much longer.
