Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / July 2006Proud of Otis
You all know about Otis' early morning antics that cost us sleep, I know. Well, we had tough love about three nights in a row and he slept in the basement. He was miserable. Miserable! For the last two weeks since, he's been an absolute dream. Curls up and sleeps and purrs on my shoulder and doesn't get up and claw the screen when the birds start at 4:30 AM. He is such a momma's boy - he couldn't stand being separated. He's such a love.

Oscar usually shapes up if we do this to her for a few nights. But watch for backsliding or "testing." You know how kids are! Signaturemonique, who spoils Oscar unmercifully pictures: http://www.bounceswoosh.org/rpca Sweet Otis! Could he please teach Memphis how to sleep at night? He is really good at sleeping in the day time! sandra >You all know about Otis' early morning antics that cost us sleep, I know. > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] >the birds start at 4:30 AM.

It's interesting how he shows vastly different parts of his personality to different people at different times. I think that you're probably the only person who can tame him. :) > You all know about Otis' early morning antics that cost us sleep, I know. > > Well, we had tough love about three nights in a row and he slept in the > basement. He was miserable. Miserable! I remember suggesting this a while ago and I'm glad you could bring yourself to do it. It's not easy. > For the last two weeks since, he's been an absolute dream.

I've done it with Spicey when she gets bitey (5-10min.) and usually it works. Suz&Spicey Of course, right after I wrote that, he tried to keep us up the next night ;-) Time outs haven't worked with Otis before and I wonder if he's slowing down just the tiniest leetle bit at 10. He doesn't try to go on nighttime walkabouts anymore either, which is smart and I appreciate. He's just so darned affectionate! Susan M Otis and Chester > Sometimes timeouts really work.
