This is a common trope in cat jokes, but I don't ever see it in real life. My cats just don't wake me up. It could be because they never learned that it works. Most of them are elderly, and Sundae learned from the older cats. They know I will awaken eventually, and since they have unlimited kibble, there's no emergency. This comic is from Jimmy Craig at They Can Talk.
