如何应对你的猫在晚上醒来
拥有一只猫是一个梦幻般的和有益的经历。到底，他们变得更像是我们的孩子而不是宠物。不幸的是，就像幼儿一样，他们可以随着各种原因在夜间保持清醒。这种睡眠缺乏睡眠经常对我们的生活造成严重破坏，特别是对于那些必须早起工作的人来说。
那么，为什么猫晚上让你留下来？你能做什么？
例如，Melanie患有猫的所有生命。但她的新猫咪，Iggy，一直让她在工作中疲惫。“当我想要睡觉时，他认为这是游戏时间。一切都是玩具，甚至是我的手指和脚。我不知道该怎么办！”
如果这听起来很熟悉，不要开始哭泣。随着梅兰妮发现的，答案很简单。她留出30分钟到一个小时的小猫游戏时间。激光灯，彩色弦，玩具老鼠，无论是什么让猫都在努力。Of course, as she says, "You need to be part of the play. Sometimes I run around the house with Iggy chasing me, and it works beautifully -- for both of us. At bedtime we’re both extremely tired and sleep like logs."
约翰有着类似的问题。他的猫，阴影，总是“在最顽皮的时候跑来狂热 - 从早上3点到6点到6点到6点。而不仅仅是跑步和跳跃，而且浪涌。”它驾驶约翰疯了。
他的解决方案？“玩阴影帮助，一点点。但是在我让他让他下来后他平静下来。我的兽医说它有助于Tomcats冷静下来，它的工作。”它通过阻止那些令人厌恶的我想要的上涨和夫妇猫激素来帮助。另一个奖金：你的猫不会开始喷涂在房子里。Queens（也称为女性猫）呢？它也有助于他们。没有不需要的小猫，没有进入热量。完美的。
艾琳与她的猫，查理有一个略微不同的问题。“Working long hours meant when I got home, sometimes late at night, all I wanted to do was collapse in bed. But Charlie wasn’t having any of it. He’d not only run about, jump on me and wake me, but would also be very vocal. I don't think I had a good night's sleep for a month."
艾琳试图玩查理;她甚至尝试过喂他catnip.。最后她来实现了。“He was bored all day by himself. So I got another cat. I did worry they wouldn’t get along, so I waited until I had a week’s vacation. Now, Charlie and Bella are best buds and when I get home, we play and then go to sleep."
詹姆斯这对他的猫说了这一点。“Tigra was fine when we went to bed; she liked to curl up next to me. But when she’d decide to wake up and play, she was looking for a play buddy. She’d run around the room, even nipping my arm lightly to get my attention. My solution was simple: she got locked out of the room."
这是怎么做的？好吧，他的解决方案需要时间，耐心和决心。“她会哭和划伤门口，但我不会放弃。最终她会少得多，更少，现在，她几乎没有做到这一点。”
詹姆斯说，他花了差不多两周，很多缬草和耳塞通过，但它的工作。现在他和他一起和他的睡眠让蒂格拉睡觉了。
然后有凡妮莎。她的猫总是在早上5点叫醒她;她发现的东西让她在眼睛下的黑暗圈子，让她在工作中减少效率。“马克斯总是醒来想要喂食，”Vanessa说。“So I simply started making sure he got his evening meal around 10 p.m., rather than at 6, as I had always done. Now I’m able to rest at night, and Max is no longer begging for food at some ungodly hour."
所以，如果你的猫在晚上让你保持着，请从这些故事中抓住心脏。它可能需要一点审判和错误，但您应该能够找到对抗您猫的行为的正确解决方案。无论是戏剧，晚餐，伴侣，训练甚至有点CATNIP的变化，我们知道你的答案是在那里，只是在众所周知的角落里。
