lol! Sam used to do that to me when he'd have a coughing attack before
he was diagnosed with asthma. I would wake up instantly and get him
off the back. After I learned that the coughing was not going to
produce hairballs I didn't have a problem with him staying on the bed
but he'd learned well and he'd jump off the bed every time. Now I can
wake up out of a dead sleep by the sound of Sam having an asthma
attack at the other end of the house. I think I understand how
mothers with babies do it, now.

So it's true what they said a while ago about Fritz the Brave, that
many a caregiver familiar with the sounds of their asthmatic cat
coughing, will rise from a sound sleep to administer the rescue
inhaler albuterol with the aerokat. Or something like that.
