    Do you sleep with your bedroom door open or closed?

    I was just wondering if you sleep with your bedroom door open or closed at night and why.

    My answer is both, open and closed. We start out with it closed because Oliver gets fed in our bedroom and the other cats get fed in Justin's office. We have to separate them because Oliver is on a prescription diet. In the middle of the night, every night, Oliver wakes me up and wants to leave the bedroom. I get up and open the door, I leave it open from that point on so the other cats can come in if they want. We always wake up with at least one cat in the bedroom in the morning, often more, sometimes all five.

    I sleep with it closed, since all the birds & rats are in my room. If left open, the cats sneak in there at night and torment everyone.

    Half-open for me, or should that be half-closed?

    My answer would be both. Right now Tuna and Corkscrew are still fighting so we have to keep them seperated and they take turns having access to the house. If Corkscrew and Tibby have access to the house that night then we sleep in the bedroom with the door closed and Tuna and Pocky in the bedroom. However if it's Tuna and Pocky's turn to have access to the house then we sleep with the bedroom door open.

    At my parents my room is in the basement and I would sleep with the door closed just because my mind would wander and I would feel like someone was watching me LOL but at our apartment we are in a loft so we don't have a door

    open since the bathroom is right by my bedroom and that's where the door to my bedroom closes and my parents need to use the bathroom they'll have to open the door. so yeah, I leave it open.

    I used to leave my door ajar but ever since I adopted Pearl and Starr I've been keeping my door closed at night so I can get some sleep. Now the cats are used to sleeping out in the living room and dining room area. Sometimes Storm or Sky will sleep with me at night but not too often.

    Open. We heat with wood so a closed door makes that room very cold. Plus the cats like to wander in and out at will, as do several of the dogs. Preacher would bonk his head every night if I closed the door.(he's blind).
