For the first time in my adult life I left my house without making the bed this morning. My mother's admonitions were drowned out by this sight...

Too sweet! Several days in the last few weeks while I was on vacation, the bed was left unmade almost all day because of the same "symptoms" - snoozing kitties looking way too cute and comfortable to disturb! As Martha would say, it's a good thing :D

And if she had been sleeping on your lap, you'd have just had to stay home! ;)

Oh my goodness, that is the reason I NEVER make my bed... there's always at least one cat or dog laying there all comfy and cozy like that!

I always thought it was because I was too lazy to make the bed... thank you for helping me realize the truth! Besides, its way too hard to make my bed since my husband and I don't share blankets... he likes different blanket types than I and whenever I make the bed, it takes forever because there's like 7 blankets and (I'm not kidding) 8 pillows. If you've ever looked closely at my posts, there's always a different color or patterend blanket, now you know why!

PS: When I do make my bed, I have to shoo both cats away a few times and remove the cat-sized lump form beneath the blankets.

PPS: What a pretty little bed-rumpler you have there!

My Gigi was such a lazy cat that at times I even had to change the bedding while she stayed sleeping on the bed! If I couldn't tuck the sheets under her then I would just put them over her - anything just so that she didn't have to move!

My friend Carole has drawers under her bed and her Smudge cat pulls out the drawer, empties it of the contents and then gets inside to sleep. It is a very funny thing to see.

Very cute picture. I congratulate Edwina on her excellent taste in cat beds. That quilt is very pretty.

I purposely CALL the cats to come lay on the bed so I have an excuse NOT to make it! ;) :D

Aw, how cute! Is that Eddie slumbering happily there? He looks fully adjusted to his new home.

I'm always telling Sam that she doesn't have to get up when I do. She doesn't have to go to work. No matter how hard I try to persuade her though, she always gets up.:)

How sweet, no wonder you had to leave it undone. :)

The minute I get out of bed, first Fister goes to the living room window and asks me too open it. Then, after my shower, he follows me in to the bedroom and we have a few cuddles while I dress. Then, it's time for a nap on "his" spot on my duvet. He stands there waiting patiently for me to put his blanket on top. Isn't he civilised? LOL!

I too love the quilt!

Moon Cat and sometimes her brother Emmitt are usually on the bed when I wake up and as soon as I get up at least one, sometimes two dogs, will jump up and start to rearrange the blankets into nests. What can I do? I learn to sleep in nests with built in bed warmers. It's nice on these cold, cold nights :cool: Suckers?? nah, lucky.

Oh, that's every morning at my house. They just love it when you get up to leave and they get right into your warm spot. I think they are trying to keep it warm for you in case you should decide to come back to bed. ;)

I've made my bed loads of time with my RB Jock still lying in the middle of it, he wouldn't even budge. Same at night I'd come home and the lump would be there, right in the middle of my bed, I'd give him a wee shake and you'd hear a small grunt then about an hour later he would finally emerge, as if to say 'boy did I had a tough day today !!'
Bonnie isn't one for coming under the duvet with us, although shortly before Jock passed away he taught his sis exactly what to do, however she's fly and as soon as she hears the key in the door she's outta there leaving behind a hot spot, she must think I'm stupid!

Edwina, you look so precious there in your big bed. Awwwww.......

Must have been something in the air this morning because usually after his morning treats, Tubby heads right upstairs to bed. Well, this morning instead of heading upstairs, he jumped back in the big bed. It wasn't made yet, so he sat there patiently waiting until I had made it for him, then he promptly curled up and went right to sleep. He was sleeping so soundly that when I came to give him a little treat before I left, he didn't even hear me until I touched his nose with the treat. ;) :D Tired, tired kitties this morning. ;) :D

Oh, how cute is that!

I make my bed in the am, but, sometimes, I leave a corner untouched cause someone has snuck back in for a quick nap.

No way you could make the bed with Edwina in such a sweet position!! How adorable!! I just love it when they tuck themselves in and look so snuggly and adorable!!
Sammy is our bed hog and I generally don't get the bed made in the morning because he is sweetly tucked in and sound to sleep. I just don't have the heart to disturb him!!:D :D http://petoftheday.com/talk/images/our_smilies/biggrin.gif

I didn't make the bed the other day because of this:

I love it when he buries his nose into his tail - it's SO cute! Who needs expensive cat beds, when a king-size down pillow with a flannel pillowcase will work just as well? I didn't have the heart to disturb him - he slept there for most of the day and now that's his favorite place to sleep at night - right next to meowmie! :)

Hard to believe it is the "first time" you've ever NOT made your bed.... hehe :eek:

But, it is an adorable picture, and a GREAT excuse!;)
