The only cats that sleep with me are Moo (he sleeps under the covers with his head on the other pillow) and Shorty. They come and go during the night. I have become quite the contortionist sleeper. There's no way I can close my cats out of my room. My living room has an archway that leads to my bedroom. No door to shut them out. Besides, if I ever shut Moo out, he'd relentlessly scratch at the door till I let him in .
