First time on here!
Previously my cat would wake me up by shredding or trying to take down my roommates poster. He knew that messing with stuff on my roommates side of the bedroom was a great way to get me up (moving/scolding him seemed to be enough attention for him). My roommate gave up, took down the battered poster, and encouraged him to shred it.
This seems to have caused the cat to now be obsessed with shredding paper mostly in the morning when I am trying to sleep. What should I do? I am hesitant to just close him out of my room as he can just find other paper to shred as he can open cabinets.
Should I start waking up early (6am) to play with him? Is there a toy that can satiate this desire to shred prey?
