Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / April 2005Rude awakening
Weird things seem to happen when I am half awake. The other night, (about 2 am) I stumbled into the bathroom to take care of some business. I heard a slight 'thump' but didn't pay any attention to it - I just figured it was one of my cats coming to 'help' me. I started to sit down, when I felt this thing... Not sure what it was, I threw myself to the side, sat down hard on the floor and decided that I needed to turn on the light. My hubby had to use the toilet plunger earlier, and left it sitting beside the toilet, and one of the cats had tipped it over so the handle was over the seat. Jeesh! Of course, I had a couple of cats staring at me like I had gone completely over the edge! (we know that for a fact!

A neighbor asked me once if I ever slept. I asked him why he asked that question. He said no matter when he got up at night he could always see lights on in my house. Those tiny 4 watt things do show up at night. MLB > >> Weird things seem to happen when I am half awake.

I guess it didn't occur to me because I have so few electric outlets. One's inside of a cupboard, another's in a closet in an unused room, and the other's behind the sofa. >> >> Weird things seem to happen when I am half awake.

What we actually use right now is a dimmer switch on the bathroom light. It's nice to be able to dim the lights for a relaxing bubble bath. And we just leave it on very low every night.

You could leave the cupboard door open at night (why would they ever put an outlet In a cupboard?). Behind the sofa is where they placed them long ago -- now they usually go in corners. Any hallways?

MLB MLB, it's in the very back/bottom of a (kitchen) cupboard, and being that it's one of just three outlets in the whole house, it is full already. In fact it is overloaded. But if I'm lucky I'll find a better place to live on $580/month with six cats and no road nearby for them to get killed on. >> >> Ever heard of those little night lights?

MLB We keep a night light in the bathroom. It prevents so many middle of the night "incidents" Jo >> Weird things seem to happen when I am half awake.

There was no moon that night, so it was totally dark. I felt disoriented trying to feel my way out. Now I keep a flashlight in every room. MLB >> Weird things seem to happen when I am half awake.

OTOH, the invisible-toilet-viper-attack is always good for a maximum cardiovascular workout.
