Sleep on bed?

[Edwina's Secretary]

It has been a case of "be careful what you ask for, you might just get it!" for my husband and Edwina.

When he was trying to talk me into getting a cat and I was giving in bit by bit, one of my first conditions was the name "Edwina." And that she not get on the bed (my allergies.) My husband would tease me by lying in bed "talking with Edwina." He would say "come on Edwina...she's asleep. It's okay to get on the bed now." And so on...

Now Edwina ALWAYS sleeps on the bed. Sprawls out big as you please. My husband...who dotes on her and wakes up at night and pets on her....has been been talking about a king sized bed so "Miss Bed Piggy" won't discomfort us so!

Several years ago I suggested buying a bed for Buster. Richard replied that Buster already had a bed, he just let us sleep in it.

Since 1996 we have been sleeping upstairs with Buster and the two tabby brothers, Spot and Tiger. We discussed getting a king-size bed after many nights when the three boys decided to stretch out horizontally and crowd us over to the edges. Things have also been more than cozy in the summertime, so we have had to use fans and air cleaners to assist the air conditioner.

Buster now cuddles up to me, under the covers, head on the pillow, with my arm around him, as soon as my light goes off, and he usually stays there all night.

My husband and I are NOT small people... We ave a king-size bed and with Louie (who sleeps on his back... sideways, so as to take up most of the bed) and the two Meezers every night is like a game of Twister I told him the other night we should have polka-dotted sheets....*spin*... left foot on red..............

Misty sleeps with us every night and if we tried to keep her out of our room we would not get any sleep. She hates closed doors.

Misty is gorgeous. I just love Maine Coons -- so friendly, so gentle, so big and noble. I always look forward to seeing Bob, my Maine Coon neighbor.

Shaianne always slept w/ me unless I was at my parents house. She would either lay beside me or at my feet or sometimes w/ her head on my stomach or across my legs. That was the hardest thing to get used to when she died.
Kylie (kitty) sleeps with me, she isn't much of a lap cat and rarely jumps on my lap. But as soon as I am in that bed, all bets are off! She is on my chest, while I am trying to read. I usually wake up w/ her curled up in my arm or up by my neck. Once I woke up w/ her laying across my neck and another time I woke up w/ my arm stretched out and her laying across it w/ her head in my hand!
I have a hard time sleeping when she isn't curled up next to me!
Keegan isn't big enough yet. The times she has been up in bed w/ me and I fell asleep I woke up to pure chaos! (hence the tissue incident!) Or puddles! Now she is getting better w/ the potty training. The other day I was sleeping on the couch and Keegan jumped up w/ me and slept w/ her head across my legs and then she jumped up beside me and laid her head in the crook of my arm and slept there for awhile!
I can't wait until she is big enough I miss snuggling w/ a doggie!
