Our cat is driving us nuts!
We have a rescue cat, around 12 years old. Got her about 2 and a half years ago, and she's been great for the last couple of years. However, the last few months she has decided she wants feeding around 3 or 4 in the morning and will scratch on the bedroom door incessantly. Unfortunately due to the layout of the flat there's nowhere we can shut her in, and she won't step a paw outside.
We've got point of barricading our bedroom door, but still she manages to somehow get through and scratch away. She's causing us less sleep than our 6 month old human!
The only solution I can think of is get an automatic cat feeder set for 3am, but with our current one she can clearly smell there's food in there and attacks it from the moment we put it down, usually destroying it within half an hour.
Can anyone recommend an automatic cat feeder that prevents the smell and is suitablly indestructible? I've tried googling, but not found anything.
