Just get rid of the cat! I'm kidding, my wife and I have 7 rescues. Couldn't fathom doing that. Guess we are lucky in that most nights they leave us alone. We do run an air purifier or fan though for white noise. Have for years now. We probably couldn't sleep without them. Good luck!!

Should we change the title of this thread to "The Cats of Paceline"?

Thanks makoti. I've made the mistake of dropping food off at our local humane society and bringing home a kitten. Twice! And took a new rescue to our vet for her shots and a check up. And brought home another kitten. Momma wasn't thrilled but we love them like crazy. And to dbnm, we already have a cat thread on the forum! Can't hurt to have another though right? Dogs usually get all the love!!

Im typing this at 450am as I'm kept awake by a snoring dog, grumbling 2 week old baby in a bassinet by the bed and a white noise machine - I must be one of the few people who hate white noise. I find it very stressful to hear and distracting.

Worst part right now is despite being a devout member of the dawn patrol, I can't ride in case either of my daughters wake up and my wife needs my help.

Bosley this morning. We never trained him to use the toilet. 8 years in, we found him on it one day and now he doesn’t use the litter box anymore to this day.

(He has a cone on as we just applied his monthly flea topical on his neck)

I need some great ear plugs to help sleep through the noise. Recommendations?
Get up.
Feed the cat.
Ride.

Go to bed earlier and cherish your time with Jack...
