I think in English it's called a conservatory.

My cat comes in through the cat flap in the early hours and then meows loudly in the hope that someone will come down and feed her. We just ignore her.

Hi NAT,

that's exactly the problem

one of our cats wakes the wife up by nibbling her foot, one morning we chucked him out so we could go back to sleep, a minute later there was a scream - Miss Micro V had been woken by the cat.

We invested in a catflap for one of the glass panels of the winter garten

Reverse psychology doesn’t work, which is a shame, cause you could tape up the flap lightly and they would then try to get in

If it bleeds, we can kill it

Ear plugs and ignore. Started wearing ear plugs after living next to an airport. You think a cat is loud!

Have to say though the pilots weren't bothered about me ignoring them, they never tired of unnecessarily revving their jet engines over the house.

You do just have to ignore them unfortunately. They eventually get the message. Eventually.

This is just one of many reasons never to own a cat.

My solution would involve a sack, some bricks and a trip to a deep lake.

fine for the wife but what about the cat?

I married a crazy cat lady, there is no solution, if you make every accommodation possible to the cat it will still find a way to piss you off.

Best result I found was to kick the wife at 3am, swear at her and tell her to sort out that f&*3king cat or I will give it a hessian sack bath,

I've met your lovely wife and as delightful as she is I'd suggest you've got this the wrong way round

we came to a compromise and she got another kitten.

Way to go girl.

Wake them up throughout the day.

If you've had them neutered you could try getting it reversed. When they wake up at 4am with a morning glory they'll bugger off looking for a source of relief for a bit and come back and have a post nookie nap till midday.
Works a treat I can tell you.
