The Only Reason to Get Up
Just so we’re on the same page, cats do not make for great guard pets. Heck, even dogs will think that burglars are just uninvited guests, especially if they have a few dog treats in their pockets. So, if this person was expecting their cat to wake up at the sound of a doorbell, a burglar, or a serial killer, tough luck.
But when it hears the electric can opener or the crinkling sounds of a food wrapper, your cat will forget about being sleepy and make a beeline to its food bowl. That’s just the way cats are programmed, we guess.
