Hi guys! Welcome back to the channel
it is Claire and Rags and do you have a cat that just won't let you sleep through
the night? Well fear not! If you do Rags and are here
with a few tips for you to you to help you train your cat to not wake you up in the night and let you sleep through
Now if simplest things you can do is just ban your cat from the bedroom. I know it sounds so barbaric, yet so simple!
I don't think I could go for the night without having Ragsy at the end of my bed
she's such a cuddle monster, but some cats can be quite disruptive when it comes to
night time so it might just be the only choice you have
so you can just lock your cat in another room or another part of the house where
they can make as much noise as they possibly want without disturbing you at all
now in some ways cats can be a little bit like children and then they respond
really well to routine. Why not try to establish a routine with your cat
When it comes to waking up in the morning and time for their breakfast? Now
when you set an alarm in the morning maybe it's not just an alarm for
you but an alarm for your cat as well. Now my husband's alarm goes off and
half past six in the morning and Ragsy has come to see this as not only
time for him to wake up but time for her to get breakfast. Now one of the
most important things to do if you're going to establish your routine like
this is to make sure that you are consistent with it. So if you have an
alarm set for 6:30 Monday to Friday you're going to have to make sure you get up at
6:30 on Saturday and Sunday too - cats don't know what the weekend is as that they do
respond really well to consistency and a strict routine. Now you can just get up
and give your cats and their breakfast at that time and then get back into bed
but you know, cats don't know the difference, do they? Now after a busy day we
usually have a really good night's sleep and sleep through the night. This can
be the same for your cat as well! Actually just recently Rags traveled with me
into the city even on the train, didn't you? And that night she was zonked out, she completely
fell asleep and slept all the way through night
Now obviously you taking your cat on the train every day is a bit of a tall order
but why not try a bit of playtime before bedtime
if you give your cat a few minutes maybe 10 or 15 minutes of playtime before you
go to bed this will hopefully burn off any excess energy they have and tire your
cat out so they'll sleep through the night and finally if you want to keep
your cat occupied in the nighttime, then give them the means to do it
themselves scatter or turn on at some interactive
toys and games throughout the house. Obviously not your bedroom because that
would defeat the object but around the house where they can make as much noise
as they want. So if your cat is particularly full of beans at 2:00 a.m.
they can take themselves away and play with their catnip mouse or an
interactive game. This means your cats gets all the fun and enjoyment of
playtime but you get to sleep through the night. Thanks for watching guys I
