My feline roomie feels no compunction about poking at me when I'm asleep to get me to wake up and do stuff for her.
This doesn't Annoy me as much as you might think; I appreciate that she's trying to honestly communicate her wants to me. "Do this. Do that." In other words, she has no opposable thumbs, so....fair enough.

1) Sit as close as possible to human's head. Purr so hard you rock back and forth with each breath.
2) If human opens eyes and then closes them again, attempt to pry eyes open with paw. No claws.
3) If human hides under blanket, bite (very gently) whatever part is still exposed, e.g. nose or fingers.
He'll keep this up until I get out of bed, but what he hasn't figured out is that if he dashes out of the room as soon as I sit up, I'll just close the door and go back to bed.
He usually starts this around 5:30 in the morning. Breakfast-time is 7. The last time I was home, he didn't do it, because my mother's boyfriend has moved in and he gets up for work at 5:30 anyways.

My Festus used to wake me up almost exactly like that. His variation was to give me a silent, fish-scented "meow" if I was dumb enough to open my eyes. And instead of gentle bites, he would start grooming any exposed body part with his sandpaper-y tongue.
My current cat, BoojiBoy has the actions down flawlessly...now all I have to do is teach him to tell time....
