    Fun fact : cats are corpuscular crepuscular. They are most active at dawn and dusk.

    Their high energy time is our low energy time.

      not to be that guy, but it’s crepuscular. My cat is also corpuscular (quite fat), but that’s on me.

        Cats are light sleepers and wake eachother up all the time. They don’t mind it as much as humans do. Though to be fair, the natural rythm of humans is to wake up once in the middle of the night and then continue sleeping.

            Yeah, that’s part of it. Since they are light sleepers and see you as clumsy kittens, then they expect you to be a light sleeper too. When you aren’t waking up they get worried you died lol

    I’ve always wondered how an 8 pound animal can sound like an 1,800 pound animal when running their midnight laps.

    banging the feeder with their hands

    Where I’m from, cats have paws. (Also, I opt out of AI images showing human-handed cats, don’t you dare)
