If an ant walks across sand on the beach, it wakes me up. So, our cat Molly isn’t allowed in the bedroom when it’s bed time because her purring and/or moving around would wake me up. We can’t even leave her in the main part of the house as she would scratch on the door to come in and that would wake me up as well. She is therefore banished to the porch where she has a comfortable box, food, a dirt-tray and a window to spy on all the birds outside from (cat television).

But even that doesn’t work because she scratches on the porch door to come in. So, we have to put a cardboard box in front of the porch door to prevent that. Last night she learned how to get past the box to scratch at the door anyway…at 5AM. The only thing to be done was to get up and throw her outside. And that may be what happens from now on: outside she goes at bedtime.

But one benefit of being up at 5AM was the glorious colours in the sky that I quickly snapped before going back to bed again. Here is the green-eyed little monster:
