Reluctantly, I drag myself out of my warm bed and look at the clock; 3:47 a.m. I
reach the bedside table and turn on the light, the pain is the result, the light, so
bright, the light is, so, so bright. My wife turns on her side and I can see the

surprised if the neighbors were awake too.

Our cat is a noisy cat. Disturbingly strong. 747 noisy jet engine. and there was a time

because most of the prey they hunt is nocturnal (rats, mice and other rodents).
So, if you can’t or don’t want to let your cat out at night to hunt only what
you should do?

Training your cat to stop this behavior can be quite easy, but be careful,
It will take a bit of patience on your part, but a good night’s sleep may pay off.
