Hey,
One of my kittens (9 months, half bengal, we've had them for 3 months) is a massive pest at night time! She wakes me up at least 3 times every night by running up to me, purring, head butts and licking me for about 20 minutes non stop. It's not for food or anything, and it is very cute but the frequency is making me really over-tired all the time for work. I live with my girlfriend but she only ever does it to me (slightly unfair!). Add to that the occasions when the other kitten decides to be annoying and it's not a recipe for much sleep!
We used to shut them out of the bedroom but the other kitten scratches and pulls up the carpet and they both seem to get distressed and meow by the closed door.
I've tried playing with her more when we get in from work, but even when she's tired she seems to take the time out to wake up and search for cuddles! It's really the licking and head-butting that is the problem, I'd have no problem with a cuddly cat.
Any advice?!
Thanks
