My roommate has this cat that has decided it will cry outside my door whenever it wants to go outside or vice versa and cry outside the windows until someone lets it in. The former roommate who lived here just left the window open which I am not ok with. I also installed some doors to my room separating it from the rest of the house and the cat just sits and cries outside them. Usually this doesn't bother me but last night at 2am I was trying to go to sleep and the damn cat decided it was just going to sit outside the window and cry. I open the window and it won't come in. Just sits.

/WRISTS

I have class at 8am so needless to say I'm up at 7am. My roommate said if I just left my door open at night AND the window it wouldn't be an issue. I like my privacy!!

However it's my room that I pay rent for and her cat. I should not have to cater to her cat! Right? I told her I didn't want to leave my window open because it's at the front of the house which faces a rather busy downtown street...thus a security issue. (also she mentioned in the past the cat had a bad habit of bringing in "presets" and hiding them around the house, that must be a fun surprise!)I'd much rather deal with cat crap in a box (which is also located in my bathroom which never seems to get cleaned except when I do it) then the stupid cat crying at 2am to be let in and then clawing at my door at 6am to be let out. That shit is not gonna fly. Tempted to just drive the cat to the other side of the city and let it find a new home..

Some solutions I have thought about trying include sticky double sided tape on the window sills and some of that cat deterrent stuff. I'm just tired of dealing with the stupid thing at 6AM when I don't have to be up until 7AM!

Anyone tried anything like this?
