Cats...Or Why I fell out of bed.

[rareboy]

This happened a couple of nights ago.

I am able to somehow accommodate myself to the sprawl and the nesting of Boo Boo and Mizzy...but in the middle of the night, I finally slid right out of bed and cracked my cheek on the bedside table. Because she had bedded down in such a way that my legs just drifted over the edge.

My jaw is so sore and cheek bruised and I have had to use beauty filters on the camera when I have on-line meetings.

Anyone else get booted out of bed by your canine or feline bedmates?

Or your human bedmates?

Sometimes a human needs to learn when to get over. If anyone asks, you ran into a door. You may need sunglasses and a scarf.

A had a huge tomcat that slept snuggled between me and my arm with his head on my shoulder and his big paw on my beard. I loved that so much I sometimes suffered there needing to get up to piss.

When I was a teenager, one of our Alaskan malamutes used to climb into bed with me, and she'd lean against me so hard that the bed (which was on rollers) would roll away from the wall and I'd fall off.

Old joke:

Q. Where does a 300 pound gorilla sleep?

A. Wherever the gorilla wants.

Q. Where does a 10 pound house cat sleep?

A. Wherever the cat wants.

My Coco tends to snuggle in phases, and if I travel for days and return, she snuggles more often. In general, she doesn't like to be held, but occasionally she lets me.

When she does snuggle, I have to wait, like Kahaih posted, until she stirs again, as I don't have the heart to wake her just because I need to get up to pee, eat, drink, or tell the cops I didn't do it.
