Some mornings I swear my cats can read my watch. I get a furry little paw tap to the cheek exactly 15 minutes before the alarm goes off. It’s always with a look of “I desire my morning scritchies and then breakfast, please”

You probably start to stir and the cat notices but you don't.

This is how my cat knows to come to bed.

The bed makes a squeak when you fully get in, and that squeak is the alert to come sleep at my feet.

Yes. My cat knows when I roll over from cuddling my wife, so she can sneak in and get her cuddles. She hears me shuffle and roll over, and then there she is ready to be spooned

I wish I had a morning cuddle cat! I swear even if I don't open my eyes, my boy can tell I woke up by how I'm breathing or something, and then it's "food now!!" even if it's way off feeding time 🤣

cats cogitate like human toddlers. When I was a toddler, I knew "0h-seven at four o'clock" was Sesame Street. I couldn't tell time, or read, and only had a fleeting grasp of numbers (due to sesame st), but somehow I turned that tv on to channel 07 every day at 4.

I think small simple creatures like cats and babies all have an angel whispering things in their ears.

More like "Food now? Or food not now? " repeating every 3 seconds, ad infinitum.

Fun fact: I recently learned that apparently ninjas could use the width of a cat's pupils to tell approximately what time it was when the weather was overcast!

This was according to a museum in Japan, so don't blame me if it's wrong
