Sleeping with cats

Which one do you mean by creamy? Taj or Rose?Rose is looking for a home, so is Serena for that matter. Taj is my #1 son. I found him in my front yard at 4 weeks old, just a little guy. He is one of my favorites, and he really is my boy. The others in the house will do, barely. I love him, and he loves me too.

That's Taj. He's a determined little body when he wants something. And if he doesn't get his way, he will nip. But I love him anyway, even if he is a slippery little devil!

I believe it's Taj, the creamy colored one laying near Rose.

owh..you're a cat lover right?

This was just to prove to those who MIGHT doubt when I say I sleep with a lot of cats. I often sleep with fewer, but sometimes more!

you might say that - I have 19 permanent cats, 5 foster cats & 4 foster kittens too young to place at 3 weeks

That's one thing I'm strict about. No fighting on the bed! I do allow Scamp to slap the others because he's such a coward that when they get in his face he pops them. They don't really fight & Scamp then tends to run away at that point. The most I've ever known I've had was 11, and yes, I have some that prefer to sleep on top of me. In fact, getting out of bed this evening I had to get out from under Tuti who has quite the technique of staying on top of me, I can roll over & she walks the roll - if she wasn't such a lard butt she could do it as a trick! And last night I had Solo, I've never had Solo sleep on top of me before, but then again, I never had Rose clear the end of the bed before!

Well, sadly, your a little far to come over & hug a few, tho some would really like it. Take Rose for example. The roomie was in the tub this morning & Rose wanted to be loved so much she climbed right on top of her! Of course, that part of the roomie wasn't underwater, probably wasn't even that close to the water, but still, in the tub!

I don't think she'd've appreciated her boobs on the internet! But I didn't get up to see it either, by the time I was up, the roomie was about out of the tub.

Oh, you should have taken a picture of that!! HAHA!....how sweet!

If you get her spayed, she'll be a much nicer pet. And you can avoid all kinds of later health problems that unspayed females have - besides kittens.

been planning to do that but I just don't have the time to do so.

Rygel would be that way, but he learned that if he caused problems in my bed, he got thrown out and the others still slept with me. So, he's pretty good about it now. I actually think he got most of the message the day we took a nap together when he was about 6 weeks old & he woke up and bit me! I put him out of the bed & gave him his "handle" at the same time - "The Cat who will eat us in our sleep."

At least mine don't bite me when I an sleeping. But, tossing out one and letting the other one stay is not REALLY an option; unless, I want to be awakened throughout the night whenever Joe wants out for a drink, litter box, etc. Plus, it is really hard to try to sleep when one of them is outside the door crying. (If they are both out, they don't complain; but, if they think the other one is getting extra attention, treats, etc., they let the whole house know about it.)

And, I hope you notice that its a TWIN bed! LOL

yeah, i saw hoe small your bed is for all of thse cats lol

I shove them over until I'm on the bottom, then they can sort themselves out.

Because of the roomie's diabeties, we have actively discouraged any toe nipping. We only have a couple that can stand being under the covers and they have learned that attacking feet get them kicked off the bed. But most of them know if we are asleep, then they'd better be planning on letting us sleep. The roomie used to teach her cats how to fly when they tried to wake her up - I'm not that strong, but I'll shove them out of bed.

I am diabetic too but I don't think that matters to her LOL She doesn't bite hard enough to really break the skin just enough to make me pay attention. I could never throw a cat though I'm way too much of an animal lover. I'm glad your kitties have a nice comfy place to sleep. !!HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! **AT PEACE WITHIN** ~~STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS~~

I don't have room for a bigger bed, so they'll just have to cope with me under them!

Happily, the only "on top of me" that they want to be is on top of my torso. The rest settle for next to me, I have a few leaners, but most just cuddle up next to me. I had this one leaner that got between my legs and I would wake up all contorted against the head of the bed. But that was 30ish yrs ago, and he wasn't a young cat then.

Sometimes it seems that the fewer cats you have, the more they try and push you out of bed! When you have a bunch, they are pushing from all sides and keep you in! But I have to say, as big as I am, I used to only lay on half of the bed with my arms streached out. Now I'm more determined to take my half out of the middle and let them lay on BOTH sides of me! LOL

Well it does keep you warm..LOL...It's been chilly in the apartment, but I haven't dragged out my heavy blankets out yet,...no need to, with my fur babies keeping me warm at night

Well, their normal body temp is 100 to 101 so they can be really good warmers. Ping and Pong are the worst about getting in the face. I called Ping "Nose-breaker" cause he'd head butt my nose and Pong "Face-layer" because he'd crowd in and actually lay on my face. He stopped that before he was a year old, but Ping has only just learned to head butt my nose more gently at 3.

No, infact, the ones in the picture on my bed are some of the ones that don't get along with many others. I wish you could see how big Booboo is, he's huge, but he knows to let me have the bed & only sleeps at the foot.

LOL No, I just move them until I'm on the bottom! Then they have to sort themselves out on top/around me. The only reason they have the whole bed is because I'm not in it at the moment!

I have to wake up to roll over, have done so since I was 21. None of them are under cover cats. Rygel will get under to play, but doesn't to sleep.

My mother called it "mole-ing" when her cats did it. I can remember looking in at their bed & there'd be 2 lumps in it from the cats crawling up under the covers to sleep.

I just move the cats until I'm on the bottom. Some get up and leave to come back later, others I just have to keep moving until I get settled.

I have had cats for over 30 yrs and gotten a countable number of scratchs on my face, and the only ones from being in bed is when one falls off the bookcase next to the bed
