    Do your cats sleep with you?

    Boo sleeps with us every night, and on cold days he snuggles up to me under the covers and we "spoon." How bout ya'll??

    Too cute! Boo sounds like a wonderful little guy.

    Noah: He used to ALWAYS share my pillow with me. With each new cat, he does it less and less.

    Noel: Kind of the same as Noah, but she prefers our legs. When I take a nap or if I'm home sick, she'll lay on my legs and nap with me.

    Basil: ALWAYS....he is my shadow...wherever mommy goes, Basie goes...

    Oliva: She has kind of taken over for Noah and loves to sleep with me on my pillow. She also loves to sleep under the covers, spooning like Boo.
    ...RIP, our sweet Gini...

    Actually....Edwina allows US to sleep with her.

    True story....we had to buy a larger bed...there just wasn't enough room for the three of us...

    And of course...there is a ritual....I must get in bed...then she will jump up and curl in the bend of my legs. When I am through reading and ready to turn out the light I announce it...she moves to the bottom of the bed...allowing me time to turn over and get arranged and then she moves back into position.

    Sometimes she feels I am too slow getting into bed. She will sit on the floor looking meaningfully at the bed and then at me and then at the bed (I can almost hear her little foot tapping.)

    Bo - always sleeps with me, usually on the pillow. If i am laying on my back, he will sleep on my chest (at least until I roll over).

    Hanna - sleeps under the covers, and she usually has her little head poking out, it's so cute. She occasionally will sleep on my legs.

    Abby - she will once in a while, but only at the end of the bed. And if I move at all, she gets mad and jumps off to find a more peaceful sleeping place.

    My kitties sleep with each other around the house. The bedroom is off-limits because of my allergies.

    Yep!
    Eliza sleeps at my bottom corner of the bed (don't yet know how I manage not to kick her) but she doesn't stay there all night.

    Mozart sleeps at the foot of the bed, or in the middle of the more end side of the bed (namely wherever my husbands feet are LOL)

    And bach..well he used to just sleep by my head, but I guess that's not good enough anymore! In the past weeks he has started sleeping between my husband and i, with his back against my hubby, and his paws against my back or face (depending on which way i'm turned at the moment)..and if its REALLY cold out, he'll get under the covers, get in position, with his head on the pillow and SNORE!

    I love cats!

    I was so scared when I got Boo that he would not be affectionate, but my fears were so misplaced! He's great. The perfect mixture of cuddly and self-sufficient.

    I love winter because he'll cuddle up to me, under the covers, head on the pillow with the two of us like little spoons. And if hubby is not too jealous, we make three spoons.

    Max sleeps right next to my pillow - nose to nose.
    Speckles sleeps on her fav chair in the living room until around 4am then she will jump on the bed and curl up at the bottom. Sometimes (if Max let's her) she will cuddle underneath the blanket.

    Both cats and the dog sleep with me. My Katie girl will sleep in the bend of my legs, Mooky is near my chest and Buddy is at the foot of the bed. Thank God I have a double bed.

    Edwina, you are such a riot! I can just picture it!

    Well, Scooter used to sleep with his daddy before we were married and before his behavioral problem really got out of hand. Scooter does get "bed time" with us though. At night while I'm reading, Scooter scampers up on the bed and "spoons" with Aaron for awhile...at least until we both get too sleepy and have to put him in his cage.
    Marius will sleep on the bed, and he's usually more apt to do so in the winter season...simply because he wants the warmth! But I love it just the same. He too is a "leg kitty". He likes to sleep in the bend of my knees, or between my feet. Sometimes he'll curl up right against my back when he's feeling he needs extra warmth! I just love sleeping kitties!

    Mimi sleeps with Helen. Butter sleeps with us, right at Scott's feet, which is not always a good thing!!!

    I just have to add one more thing! I've actually refused dates because the guy doesn't like cats! And in year 2001 I was dating a guy for about a month when he said that he couldn't sleep with cats on the bed.....Gone!! History!! To this day I remain single and loving it!

    And that's all I got to say about that............Forest Gump

    Nakita always sleeps with me. She loved to bury herself under the covers and she will try to sleep on her back while using me for balance.

    Don't be afraid that your life will end. Be afraid that it will never begin.
