Adventures in cat-sitting...March 16th edition

Scene:  I am asleep. There is suddenly one of the cats I'm cat-sitting through tomorrow on the bed, by my face.

Thor:  GET UP! GET UP!! The sun is rising!! You have to feed us NOW!!!

Me:  Oh, hell no...go back to sleep.

10 minutes later, I hear a "thunk." My iPod Touch (I use it as an alarm clock) has been removed from the nightstand to the floor.

Thor:  Seriously, woman, you need to get up and feed us.

Me, retrieving device:  You can wait another hour.

10 minutes later, there's a cat sitting on my head, licking my hair...

Thor:  I will not take no for an answer. Get up and feed us.

Me:  You will too take no for an answer. (And he gets removed to the foot of the bed.)

10 minutes later, I hear "rustle, rustle..."

Me:  What are you doing? Stop it. (rustling stops for maybe 2 minutes...)

"rustle, rustle..."

Me:  seriously, where the hell =are= you and what are you doing??! (rustling stops...)

"rustle, rustle..."

I put on my glasses, and he's trying to eat some of his owner's papers, which were under her laptop.

Me:  Will you STOP it!?!??! (I get out of bed to go push papers back under the computer...)

Thor:  Since you're out of bed...

Cleo:  YAY, YAY, YAY, she's up, it's breakfast time...

Me:  :Facepalm: Ok. You win...

10 minutes later, I was back in bed. 10 minutes later the alarm went off, whereupon I turned it OFF instead of hitting Snooze.

4 hours later...

Me:  ZOMG you guys, I was going to go birdwatching, you let me go back to sleep!!!!


Thor:  What? We ate already...but are you going to give us more food now?
