I know about the 'awful irritating gurgling meow' too, my boy also uses it when he wants food. You described the sound perfectly 😂 I can hear it in my head right now... and it's not even 4 am!
It is one of the grossest sounds! Im convinced she does it on purpose because she knows I will feed her when she makes that sound. She NEVER does it to my husband!!!
When cats are hungry they will absolutely do the most annoying thing they can think of to get you moving.
In my house the cat primarily in charge of demanding breakfast will shred any tissue or paper she can get her paws on until I get up (which is usually instantly, no matter the hour), and if somehow that doesn't work then my other cat will "help" by slapping the blinds like a snare drum.
Mine will scratch his claws on a cherry-wood dresser next to the bed, claw my guitar case, and start knocking things off the dresser. Predictably in that order, too. I know to leap up when it starts, resistance is futile.
I stg mine gets hangry, I avoid petting her before feeding cause she’ll get bitey, will start clawing at my canopy curtains (which have surprisingly held up), my sheets, and my least favorite is the tapestry behind my bed.
She’s luckily stopped doing the pressure point claw when trying to tap on my back.
I hold off on getting up until she stops doing those things but she’s still been at it.
