Arthur had a very sweet way of waking me up, this morning

I'd had a really bad night. I woke up at 1:30, after a nightmare, drenched in a cold sweat. Eventually fell back to sleep and had a less traumatic but equally weird dream. So I overslept by a bit.

I woke up to Arthur making very gentle biscuits on my toes. Not my feet, just my toes. I didn't even have to open my eyes to know it was him because he's the King of Biscuits. The rest of the kidcats were gathered around, just watching me. It was a refreshing change from Madoc's habit of pouncing and nipping my feet while also trying to drag the duvet off of me.

We will all be turning in early, tonight.

Unseasonal Summer weather - cold wind, rain, thunder, lightning.

Woke up at 4 am with a wet cat curling up next to my head.

Girl dog: Imma gonna kill that noise! BARK! BARK!

Boy dog and boy cat: Don't care, need to sleep.
Girl dog: I'm defending my pack! BARK! BARK!

Nothing planned for today, other than catch up on sleep.

Some agreed upon rules regarding who should wake you up and how.

I love the part where the rest are just hanging around watching!
