Great job, Pumpkin!! 3am is even earlier than me, though I usually start about 3:30am. That usually wakes my slave up by 4am, she sleeps really hard! I like to sit on her and pat her in the face with my claws out, heehee, and when she stirs I pull the paw back really fast like it wasn't me. MOL! You'd think my body weight would be enough to wake her up, I'm a full figured gal and all, but I'm not sure she actually breathes at night. I'm training Pete to groom her hair and that's pretty funny! He licks for a while then bites her head! You should have seen dad laughing last night!!! My best secret is to get her to drink lots of water before bed, that really helps with the waking up thing. If all else fails, they do make baseball bats, but you have to pretend that you didn't do it....
