I don't sleep I dream
Was planning on going to bed/sleep at 2230 last night, in order to get me my full eight hours.
Well.
I had to do laundry. I had to deal with the cat. I was made a lot slower in doing this because I was in a really incredibly *foul* mood from not enough sleep. Dude doesn't always do the dishes as soon as he might, and he was holding off on picking up his laundry until he'd gotten the dishes done.
We did improvise a cat container. Two laundry baskets, held together at three points each 90 degrees apart, using hair elastics for the holding. This has a dual function: keep the cat contained, or keep the cat out of the laundry, just depending on what side of the laundry cage the cat is on when the lid springs back closed.
Dude and Chick have been having their sex life interrupted too much by this creature, as they tend to use the living room after Sis and I have crashed in our own rooms, and I categorically refuse to have the cat in my room when I'm trying to sleep if said cat is in hyper-mode.
If the cat is hyper, then the cat decides to chew on Dude's toes ... right in the middle of the Wrong Moment ... so Dude pays more attention to getting rid of the cat than he does to what's going on with Chick ... which pisses her off ... which makes him unhappy ...
We now have a cat-container. The "Mew? Meeeew!" is far preferable for half an hour to an hour or so than toe-chewing during coitus.

hyperactive kitten
Let's not forget how they jump if they see *something*, anything moving under the covers and proceed to fight World War III with said thing or body part. I tend to close the door and turn on the radio, or even better, I don't do it at home.

Re: hyperactive kitten
*sigh* but I still prefer her to a dog.
Re: hyperactive kitten
I'm not a dog person either.
Uhhh
Or are they really 120 degrees apart?

Re: Uhhh
If the cat is removed from its cell, wont it then be able to go wherever it wants?
Considering how low the cost of laundry baskets is, I'd just build a little jailcell for each cat I owned; thus eliminating the need to let them back out.
Heheh...
Re: Uhhh
The cat's fine running around *most* of the time... just not during sleep, not during laundry, and not during sex.
