Husband and wife slowly realize that their ginger cat hilariously tucks them into bed every night, and is very miffed when they don't go along with him: 'Toad doesn’t even sleep in our bed!'

    "Husband and I are realizing that our cat might be trying to tuck us into bed every night??"

    Original post: We're proud parents of a 1.5 year old orange brainless child, Toad. We've been slowly realizing recently that anytime we stay up late watching a movie or tv, he drives us BONKERS with meowing, walking on us, and is just generally unsettled.

    This happens like an hour after he gets his wet food, so he's not hungry. We try to play, he doesn't want to. He doesn't need anything.

    Then, as we soon as we get into bed and then the lights off, he completely stops. No more craziness - he just goes into another room and beds down to sleep.

    That made us wonder, is he just trying to tell us it's bedtime? Does he just want us safely tucked into bed? If anyone else has noticed this I'd love to hear about it just because it's interesting

    Edit: I love all of our little bedtime supervisors. Toad doesn't even sleep in our bed! Our other cat Pigeon is the bedtime cuddler but weirdly enough she doesn't herd us, just patiently waits like a little angel while Toad pushes things off the coffee table or sits in front of the projector.

    Also I forgot to mention that his nickname is "Boneless Toad" because he is a floppy stuffed animal.

    Bebinn Cats like routine and you staying up is seriously upsetting his routine.

    Strict-Gas4654 OP I think we're only just noticing this because we've had a lot of work off for the holidays so our sleep schedule must be very unsettling to him rn

    WorthyJellyfish0Doom Yep, you are staying up past bedtime. How dare you?!

    Strict-Gas4654 OP I love it. My parents senior dogs are like this 100%, I just thought a 1 year old wouldn't be as crotchety yet

    Horror_Signature7744 My 15 year old dog does this too. If we aren't in bed by a certain time, she will complain and whine until we are both tucked in. She also awake at every day at 7am to go out and lawd help you if her dinner isn't ready at 5 pm sharp.

    Strict-Gas4654 OP So hilarious and even though it feels annoying in the moment, it's so sweet. I love that they could literally at any time go put themselves to bed but instead they feel very responsible for our wellbeing lol
