Amina, I think, is now seven years old. She's very calm most of the time and very gentle. The only times she'll cause me a headache are in the mornings when she'll meow and meow and even sort of bite my scalp until I get up and feed her, or in the evenings when she wants to play. During evenings like this, she is completely restless, she will knock anything and everything off my desk, meow at me, and get in the way of whatever I'm doing. The only way to calm Amina down is to wear her out by playing with her, she really likes laser pointers, but this will only work for like twenty minutes until she gets rowdy again. The other option is to sit down on the bed or sofa with her and give her lots of attention. Despite all of this, Amina is a very affectionate cat
