8. Ha! It sounds like the morning "ya-ya release" period -

A friend said he took his dog for a walk when the dog got restless to get his "ya-ya's" out.

My cat Daniel does pretty much the same thing every morning! Even if his food and water bowls are full, his litter box is okay; he has the company of our dog and windows to look out of to keep watch for the neighbor's cat (!) in his yard - he still loudly demands I get up.

He follows me into the bathroom and participates in tooth brushing. He's there when I let the dog out and back in. Then I must add a few kernels of food to his full bowl to show I'm paying close attention to the food supply.

After all this, he sprints up and down the hallway, climbs his scratching post, and jumps off a few times - until he gets his ya-ya's out. At that point, I'm so wide awake I can't possibly go back to sleep, and he jumps on a comfy chair and takes a nap.
