Default Where do your owners sleep?

95% of the time Persia sleeps with me *at night*. In the mornings after
breakfast she joins me in the living room, where the computer is. She
curls up in the sunshine but is always in a position to watch anything
interesting out the window. When the sunny spots gradually disappear,
as they are wont to do, she'll nap (off and on) on the bed in the guest
bedroom.

She *never* sleeps on my bed during the day... I don't know why. I
wouldn't object to it. She simply won't get up on that bed unless I'm
in it (or changing the sheets, of course!).

The Princess Rita has her own room, with her own bed, and she sometimes sleeps in there. She also has a little round bed at the foot of my big bed (on the floor), and I catch her in there some mornings. Sometimes I wake up and she's snuggled next to me. She also has two different cat trees in the living room and one in the bedroom, and she spends time on all of them. Wherever I am, she has to be, most of the time. If I'm watching tv or sewing or playing on the computer, she's in the living room. If I'm in 'her' room on the piano, she's curled up on her bed. If I'm in my bedroom, she's usually either on my bed or in her little bed.

We have this routine, every single morning. I get up and go off to the showers. She curls up in the warm spot I just left. I come back, and pull the covers up over her, then flip them back down so she can crawl out and get onto the top of the covers. (I have to make the bed every morning, because I don't want *that* much fur on the sheets!). For the record, she complains bitterly about this. Every. Single. Morning. Then, while I'm getting dressed, if I try to pet her while she's curled up by my pillows, she attacks and scratches me. My right hand is all covered with healing scratch marks, because Rita is mighty cranky in the morning. That's the ONLY time she ever scratches me. If ever a cat needed a morning pickmeup.....! Maybe I should just keep treats on the bedside table? rofl

Pretty much anywhere, although they both spend a fair amount of time on
my bed (on top of me, at night). Lately Melisande has taken to
occupying the space behind the toilet in the bathroom. I've no idea why
- I thought there might be a leak, and she was using the pipes as a
water source, but everything there seems perfectly dry. I usually know
where she is, even if she's out of sight - she snores! (Dunno whether
it's due to age, or whether Arizona's dry climate affects her nasal
passages the same as it does mine.)

Mine usually sleep on the foot of my bed at night. Occasionally, Waffles
will come up and cuddle next to me for a while.

During the day, they usually sleep on the living room floor or on my bed.
Waffles will occasionally take a nap on the couch, and both of them (though
not at the same time) sometimes nap in my recliner.

Since I've been working from home for the last half a year, actually a
little more, I can see more how they spend their days. Mostly in my
room. Sometimes all of them on the bed, sometimes on the perches in the
bedroom window which faces east south-east so it gets sun most of the
day. On rainy days they sleep all day in various places. Sometimes on
the cat trees, sometimes the dining room chairs. So basically the only
thing in common from day to day is the sleeping most of the day.

Only Rhett and/or Shamrock sleep in my bed during the night. But come
morning they're all there to wake me up.

As well the Princess should have her own room. Good slave!

That's Shamrock, too, except he's used to me working from home now and
leaves me alone to get my work done these days.

If I'm watching tv or sewing or playing on
the computer, she's in the living room. If I'm in 'her' room on the
piano, she's curled up on her bed. If I'm in my bedroom, she's
usually either on my bed or in her little bed.

Agree, and that is the only reason I bother to make my bed. I don't
want all that fur (from 4 cats!) on the sheets.

For the record, she complains bitterly about this. Every.
Single. Morning.


Yup. lol

Then, while I'm getting dressed, if I try to pet
her while she's curled up by my pillows, she attacks and scratches
me. My right hand is all covered with healing scratch marks,
because Rita is mighty cranky in the morning. That's the ONLY time

I really think she and Shamrock could be related from your description
of her moods.

Spazzie sleeps on my bed next to my pillow. Tiger sleeps upstairs on
the sofa or the floor.

Nipsy on one side of me, Scooter on the other. Marlo in the valley
between my legs. Moving can be a problem.
