They have woken me up like 8 times today.

We have a cat, Coco, who sleeps on our bed at night. She wakes my wife to feel her in the morning, per the usual routine.
After that, my wife stays up and busies herself around the house before getting ready for work.
When Coco is indoors, we keep her locked in the master bedroom, bath and laundry room area to keep the other cat from bothering her.
After breakfast, she often starts meowing to go outside. She meows quietly but with each freaking breath. It drives me insane when I'm trying to sleep.
When the weather is warm, my wife lets Coco out. And that's the problem. She wants to go outside until she realizes that it's cold or rainy.
So, on days when it's too cold, my wife locks her in the guest bedroom on the other side of the house so that I can't hear the noise. Crazy cat!
Our other cat, Poatie, is strictly indoors and gets the run of the rest of the house at night. He rarely meows unless he is being charming while begging for snacks. But he wants to play with with Coco even though she is terrified of him. That's why we have to keep the two cats separated.
When Coco is locked in our bedroom suite, Poatie sometimes tries to get her attention by sticking his arm under the door. He pulls on the springy door stopper and lets it go with a loud twang. He'll do it over and over. So we put a pillow over the door stopper to foil Poatie's game.
I guess this means I shall get sophisticated 🤣
I assume it's a dog or cat? Make sure they've been exercised before you go to bed. Walk the dog, or play with the cat for 20 mins or something. Make sure they're fed and watered too. That's usually enough for my cat.
Taking notes.
I usually shut my cat in my living room with her litter box, food and water if she’s being too noisy in my room and hallway.
Oh okay :)
I keep my bunny in basket with food while i sleep 😴
Nice bun.

Put them in a crate in a bedroom with door closed.
Ummm...
sleep during the day... like they do
isn't that what parents do as well? they do sleep when their newborns will, lmao
Yeah, but that makes me need to sleep like 3 hours more. Wasted.
Some cats are night hunters and will stay up all night looking for something to kill and eat. I feed my cats just before I go to bed, and they are satiated and sleepy and don't get up until the morning.
Thanks for the trick.
You have two options.
Either eat them, or give them away.
Probably there are more options than those two.
Don't sleep with them. Teach them their place and they'll always know it.
Yah, see where my pops sleep
Ohhh 😍
I already have two cats, but thanks for the offer :P
Make them a proper bed and treat them with good food before bed. I tried this my pet and it literally worked :)
Thanks, may work.
Welcome..
I have a no pets in the bedroom policy. Works well.
Don't they get sad?
They get used to it
Our dog wakes up to tinkle once during the night but it's fine
Once I could handle.
Have them sleep outside, doors locked.
Probably.
Lock them out of your room
Keep them out of the bedroom.
Don’t sleep
That's beyond Alberto's natural capabilities.
Water boarding might help.
Not my style.
No pets.
Just humans.
