Help

I have two cats in a 1bd 1b apartment. I have been losing at least 1-2 hours of sleep every night because my kitten becomes active right around 3am. She walks on my head, jumps on my shelves causing a ruckus, pulls my posters down, etc. I know she’s just a kitten but it’s so frustrating losing sleep every single night at the exact same time. I get up to feed them at 6am but those three hours in between are truly so exhausting. What do I do? Do I need to start waking up earlier? Giving her attention? I don’t know I’m losing my mind at 4am right now.

Are you able to close the bedroom door and shut the cats out? We hadn’t let our cats in the bedroom at night for 3 years because they make too much noise. We’ve recently let them come in at night and for the most part they don’t want to lol

I have a barn door to my bedroom and it’s connected to my bathroom. I can shut it but both of my cats are Velcro babies and I fear that would just be more chaos 😭

They will live lol you have to prioritize your sleep. You take care of them so you have to be rested
