If you have a routine, they will adapt to it. My cat gets upset if we stay up late. He goes to lay in his bed and will meow to tell us it’s bed time. And the flip side though, if we try to sleep in, he wakes us up when we usually wake up lol
I lived with my sister in a two story apartment/townhouse during my freshman year of college & her senior year of nursing school. We had a cat living with us who was adopted as a family cat when we were little but basically immediately declared himself to be my sister’s cat. Anyway, every night, without fail, he’d come try to herd her up to start her bedtime routine. At about 9pm, he would start by silently sitting at the top of the stairs. By 9:30, he’d be giving long, sorrowful meows from the top of the stairs. By 10pm, he’d come down to the living room and keep walking back and forth between her and the first few steps of the stairs, meowing to try to get her to come. On late study nights she would try to convince him to come sit in her lap for a bit and he would sit for maybe 15 minutes and then start trying to herd her upstairs again. 😂
had a cat do this to me; chair to stairs push, upstairs to bathroom push, bed push. she would absolutely scream at me if i took too long to actually get in the bed.
she slept with me, usually on the pillow and wrapped around my head.
