I don’t go through much chamomile, although I keep some around for blending and medicinal purposes. This was a freebie sample in a little pyramid bag. Because it’s much fresher than what’s mouldering away in my pharmaceuticals section, the apple-compatible flavor is easy to detect. Usually, it doesn’t do a thing for me as a sleep inducer, although that effect would be very welcome this evening! (Cats’ nap schedules are off. I did not want to be roused by paw-alarm at 4:00 a.m.)

paw-alarm is brutal! my cat used to try to wake me up specifically by pawing at my eyes and mouth, and that’s one of the many reasons he was banned from the bedroom despite being cuddly and adorable.
We have two mostly indoor, one mostly outdoor. The other morning, I woke to find one sleeping between my bent knees and the other one (with the build and weight of a concrete block) on my feet.
Kaylee, how did banning your cat from the bedroom work for you? I had one built like a little wrestler, and she’d stick her paw under the door and rattle the door in its frame until I opened it. Then she’d stare at me, “mrowr”, and saunter off.
gmathis, oooh, free weighted blanket! =]
Yes, mine did this too! He really did not take kindly to being banned. We got a baby gate and set it up a bit away from the door. There was a bit of adjustment that needed to happen to figure out the right placement and distance, and he figured out how to squeeze between two specific bars that were wider apart than the others so we had to block off that gap, but with trial and error we eventually reached detente. He never stopped trying to sneak in when he saw an opportunity, but the early morning harassment did end.
Ah, I never tried a baby gate! I just had nightly arguments that she always won. =P
