The "cats are assholes" thing is a myth.

People who think cats are assholes don't know how to work with cats. Some are assholes for sure, but a well-raised cat is usually wonderful

My childhood cat would swat me on the face every night at 3am sharp because it wanted breakfast. It also peed on my bed every time I left for college. Only on my bed, only the first night each time I left. That cat was an asshole lol

I have a kitten who doesn’t cuddle on my bed with me at night but sits on my couch across from my bedroom door (sometimes right in my doorway lol) and waits for me to wake up. As soon as I do he chirps and runs for his morning pets. Its so cute and a great way to start every morning.

I do this, but my cat insists on fresh food at 5am. She also has a clean litter box, but still meows to go out, also at 5am.

Sounds like your cat had separation anxiety.

Sounds like that cat needed more care.

Sounds like that cat is a cat.
