The past Sunday, we went to the Balloon Festival. We woke up at 3:00 a.m. and left at 4:00 a.m. for a 106 mile trip to be able to watch the lift off at 6:00 a.m. Naturally I was so tired.
I reset my alarm clock to 5:30 am. for Monday’s work. My alarm did not go off. To my surprise, Twyla climb up to my bed and in a prone position was sitting on my chest. Making some sounds. When I checked, it was 5:40 a.m.
I jumped out of bed and fed her, and hopped in the shower! My kitty, my alarm clock!
This is Twyla’s make shift bed. These photos were taken by my daughter Zee, and she has a story to tell about this photo here.

What a cute kitty. I’ll bet you’re really glad she woke you up. I could use a back-up alarm clock like that.
Thanks for telling me you missed them too. At least you still got to see a tethered one but I don’t feel as bad as I did before.

The name “Twyla” fits your kitty perfectly! Luckily, she knows that you can’t be late for work!
