Help! Cat won't let us sleep

Alright...my kitty is just over a year and he is still waking up everynight!!

He went thru a phase where he stopped then all of a sudden...1, 4 an 5 o'clock he's running around like a lunatic waking and keeping us up.

We can't lock him out of our bedroom cause then all he does is jump at the door which makes more noise.

Any suggeestions??

I have that problem with Chloe. But my problem is that she walks on me at 6am every morning and licks my face...I can't keep her away. I try using a spray bottle....all i have to do is reach for it and she runs away. But for some reason she never learns...I go through this for an hour with her every morning.

All of our cats have done this at one point or another (we have 5). What we started doing is playing with them before we go to bed.
We use the flashlight/laser on the wall trick or a piece of string that we can control and really really make them play hard. Usually they get tired and sleep through most of the night.

My cats did this too until they were just over a year. Give them time, I swear he will calm down and then sleep 23 hrs / day!
