They do. I have cats and worked on giving them active periods in the day so they would quit waking me up all night. They were grumpy lil buggers for a bit. They now have settled into getting up midday for a playfest that keeps them from reigning chaos through the night.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

What did you do for the active periods?
Get out toys and treats and play. I'm a crazy cat lady too, so I have a stroller to go on walks in, harnesses to go out in the yard with. At first they would fall over, just lay in the grass, had to throw treats on their head to get em moving. Starting younger helps, no bad habits to fix.
I also would like to know the answer to this. Any brave soul volunteering to keep their cat up for 24 hours to find out?
Ive definetly gotten side eye from cats and dogs that ive woken up mid nap. Normally they get over it pretty quick though, especially if im giving them treats or pets lol
My dog does. He also gets really annoyed if the lights are on past his bedtime.
Related - My dog is reactive to begin with. When she gets tired, usually around 9pm, she can be very aggressive. Figured out that putting a blanket over her and leaving her alone keeps everyone sane.
