I have to lie down early just so my kitteh can lie down on top of me.

I'm not IN bed- I AM the bed.

Funny how some things work.

[Roon]

1. I have no idea how

but my Barney hears me crawl into bed every night and joins me..after a couple of minutes of kneading he streatches out against my stomach and goes to sleep.

Daniel my other cat will join us sometime later and streatch out against my back. These kitties fight and hate each other...but at night the bed is the neutral zone with my body being the borders.

3. My cat can hear when I turn on the electric blanket.

No matter that it has a silent switch. He knows. If I turn it on to pre-heat the bed, when I want to get under the blanket we have a major battle since he has already claimed the center of it. If I wait until I am under it to turn it on, he lies down so he's slightly uphill on my legs, pulling the blanket off of them a few inches at a time. He repeats until my legs are no longer covered.

Someday I need to buy him his own heating pad, but it is not as if he is old or anything. He just believes that he has first right to the blanket, especially when it is on.

4. WOW!

That is amazing. Souds like a typical kitteh though. :-)

2. We get nagged, quite loudly, by our runt kitteh

When she wants to go to bed, she will NOT leave us alone until we obey. She yells. She herds. She glowers. Needless to say, we obey.

Last night I was lying in bed, reading, and she was perched on my chest (I had to hold the book above her or to one side to see it), and the other cat was stretched out on my legs. There was more cat than me visible. I had been tribbled. :P

5. Isn't it crazy how they boss US around?

My oldest insists on getting under the blanket with me, and sleeping next to my chest. She's 14 or so, so I have to keep one arm around her to prevent her from falling off the bed. I have started having real pain in my shoulder first thing in the morning. But will I stop? Hell, no.

And, I am ashamed to say, I heat towels in the dryer and put them in her bed during the day. Actually, she will stand on her table (where her bed is), and yell at me if I don't hurry up about it.:hi:

7. Every once in a while, when MG Jr. is very sick, Mr. MG sleeps on the couch

and I put MG Jr. in the big bed with me so I can keep an eye on him. When that happens, the runt kitteh FREAKS OUT. Normally, after lights out, she sleeps between Mr. MG's knees (protection on both sides from the other kitteh, who pounces her for fun), and when Mr. MG is not in the big bed IT'S ALL WRONG IT'S ALL WRONG OMG OMG RUN AROUND IN CIRCLES AND PANIC AAAAAAHHHH. She only calms down when MG Jr. is well enough to sleep in his own bed and Mr. MG returns to the big bed.

Neurotic? Just a lil' bit. :eyes:

6. my cat does that, too!

He will NOT leave me alone until I go to bed!

Oh - and the book thing. I'd BETTER hold it with one hand and pet him with the other or he'll continually headbutt the book out of the way. aarrgh..
