Cats like to have fun -- often in the middle of the night. Plan ahead if you know your cat gets revved up or hungry when you'd rather be sleeping. Play with him in the evening until he gets tired. Feed him just before bed. Or, try a timed feeder that gives out food later so he doesn’t need to wake you. And, unless you think he’s hurt, don't get up. Otherwise, you'll be teaching your cat to keep doing it.
