Hi,
I have an issue with my awesome cat. First, a tiny back story; my wife and I have recently split and we also split our two cats. We thought this was best as they never got along anyway. I kept the very hyper, monkey like Egyptian Mau while she took the timid, shy, smaller calico who just couldn't handle the rambunctious nature of the Mau.
Soon after, my 4 year old mau started waking me up every morning at 5 am with a routine of face rubbing and loud meowing. She normally likes to curl up and sleep right in my chest, but now she starts doing this and it will last for about 10-15 minutes which is just enough to keep me from falling back asleep. Is there anything that I can do that would help her with whatever stress she is going through and also help me sleep again>?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
