Not because I have a pet of any kind, it\u2019s just that I wake up to a call to nature and find it difficult to get back to sleep again.\u00a0 I have tried reading. I have tried writing another chapter to a book. I have tried staying up to get a few hours work done so that I could possibly sleep in in the morning.\u00a0 None of it works.\u00a0 I still find myself a victim of less than 5 hours sleep most nights.\u00a0 What\u2019s more, the more I get into health issues, I realise that that is not a good thing for someone my age \u2013 or anyone really as during sleep time, your brain is supposed to be resting and your body is supposed to be healing itself.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore it leaves me wondering how do people with pets get on when they want to play and go for walks outside and then to be let back in again during the night time hours when their owners are themselves settling into a good eight or nine hour block of pure rest.<\/p>\n<p>I thought I would ask around to friends I have who have cats and ask them if they have possible solutions to this problem if they have it in their house.\u00a0 Actually from memory when we had cats ourselves \u2013 only one at a time as that was all I could handle!\u00a0 &#8211; I remember our cat Mottel loved our water bed.\u00a0 She loved to lie right down between us which was often a problem for me as I like to cuddle my husband at night and especially when he worked late and came home not just tired but very cold to the touch.\u00a0 Of course, he wanted to be by the source of heat in his bed when he eventually was able to climb in.\u00a0 However, when you have a very long stubborn sleepy cat between you, then I can assure you that our nights were not often peaceful, calm and loving towards each other.\u00a0 He loved the cat in our bed while I did not!<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for reading my blog.<br \/>\nPlease comment below and share my link.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/debzebooks.com\/amis-de-chat-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Debbie Nicholson<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/debbienicholson.info\/losingsleepbecauseofyourcatpt1.m4a\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here for your Audio link to this blog<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=DG9G3A3M6HCPW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/images\/life-happens-volume-1-3d.png\" alt=\"Life Happens Volume 1\" width=\"165\" height=\"219\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Life Happens Volume 1 A Collection of Funny Emails and Facebook Messages Dating From The 1980s To 2012<\/p>\n<p><strong>Our Favourite Links<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thewellgroomedpet.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cathy&#8217;s Well Groomed Site<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/debzebooks.com\/debbie-nicholson\/mininginspacept4\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Debbie&#8217;s Other Blog<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.catster.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cats<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.catster.com\/lifestyle\/5-tips-to-get-your-cat-to-let-you-sleep\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Getting Your Cat To Sleep<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/debbienicholson.info\/amisdechatbook2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Amis de Chat Book 2<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=5QMBK9P5UQCEC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-174 size-thumbnail\" src=\"http:\/\/debbienicholsononline.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/506-694-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Amis de Chat\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/debzebooks.com\/amis-de-chat-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New Product Launch<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Losing Sleep Because Of Your Cat Pt 1 I\u2019m not sure about you, but I do suffer from sleep deprivation at night.
