I once slept for 11 hours and when I woke up my cats looked extremely disappointed that they wouldn't get to devour me.

Image transcription: Studies have shown that cats would eat their owners if they slept for 12 hours straight.

I have to believe they wake us early in the morning and when we're trying to sleep 11 hours because they *don't* want to devour us, so it's some sort of affection they're showing.

Well, if they can't wake you (so they can be fed), then they need to eat something! :blobcatcool: :blobcatnomcookie:

I had to read it twice before understanding it's the *owner* who would have to sleep for 12 hours straight and not the cats.

my cat eats me all the time, sleeping or not...

I know a paramedic who was called to a home where the cat owner overslept. She now does not like cats. To be fair to cats, we are made of meat. If my cat were made of chocolate could I resist?

With proper arm exercises, you can scruff your cat.
Quickly.

Impossible! In a Cat-Human-Relation the cat always is the owner and the human the posession!
