Mom refuses to allow Marlo on her bed and locked her out of the
bedroom last night. I told her Imom) that she's being silly but it's
only a twin bed so there isn't a whole lot of room. Of course, mom is
pretty bony so there should be some place Marlo could fit. We'll see
how that plays out!


I enjoy having my cats sleep with me, but some people do not. It sounds
like your mom fits that category. I suggest that you not try to force
your mom to let Marlo in her bedroom. It sounds like she and Marlo are
getting along well, so it's best not to make either of them
uncomfortable by trying force changes. I'm really pleased to hear about
how well Marlo is doing now and to hear about how she and your mother
are getting along together.

I agree, Mary, no need to try to change things up. Marlo will find a
comfy spot to sleep. Buffy sometimes sleeps with me but not always.
The size of the bed doesn't seem to matter. I'm convinced cats increase
in density at night. LOL

I have a king size bed but when she decides to sleep with me I still
find myself being squeezed into one little spot.

As for hairballs... Persia (RB) was always horking up hairballs. We all
know that sound, don't we? Uh oh! She always did have a delicate stomach.

Buffy is an exception. She has very thick fur for a DSH and she sheds
like crazy. The Furminator is a great tool for getting all that excess
fur. Yet, to date, she has never coughed up a hairball. Go figure.
