Does your cat sleep with you at night?

I have two cats of my own that normally sleep in the same room and I do. The oldest usually sleeps on the end of the bed or on the floor by the door. The youngest sleeps right on the bed with my wife and I. Almost every morning when I wake up, I see our smallest, Itsy, hogging my wife's entire pillow. Sometimes, like this morning, she steels the entire pillow from my wife. She also likes to wake us up in the morning by purring in our ear and licking our faces. I love it and don't have a problem with it (although my wife and I can get pretty annoyed when she wakes us up). I was just wondering if anyone else has cats that do similar things or cats that have quirky behaviors?

our cat does sleep with us, we were against it at first, but he cried the first night and we are suckers. so now he sleeps in the corner and he's only satisfied if he is touching either me or my girlfriend. its a lil weird, but he's a kitten so we give him a lil leeway. the cutest thing is when my girlfriend leaves for the day, she comes over and snuggles me so i'm not alone.

The last cat I had did. I got him when he was a little kitten and I would let him sleep with me at night, right under my chin. As he got older he got too big to sleep under my chin LOL so he'd usually sleep behind my head instead. I love a cat's purr and find it very soothing. It even helped me fall asleep.

I have four cats, two boys and two girls, and usually the two girls sleep with me. My girls only tolerate each other so every night there are some growls while everyone finds their place and gets settled. After that everything is pretty peaceful. I love having them sleep with me. There is something very comforting about it.

We have two cats at home. Before moving away, the cats never came to sleep on my bed. But since coming to university, whenever I go over to stay, the eldest cat sleeps at the end of my bed. As much as I like my cats, I hate not being able to move about in my own bed.

We have had our cat almost 11 years. He is absolutely spoiled rotten. As for sleeping arrangements, he is welcome to sleep with either hubby and I or our one son who remains at home. Most nights, he starts out with our son, but quickly leaves to roam the house and ends up on a piece of furniture or who knows where! When we are awake and watching TV or anything, he has to be right with us,preferably in our laps! At dinner, he sits in an empty chair (recently vacated by our daughter who left for college) and just watches as we eat!
