Cat Bed Or Your Bed? Cat Napping With Your Favorite Feline

When my cat sleeps on my side of the bed in the corner by my feet, oh, the gymnastics that I go through getting in and out of bed!

Many times I had leg cramps and almost screamed, but managed somehow not to wake up or “disturb” the sleeping angel!

We all are suckers for our beloved pets, or so it seems.

I love cats but I am allergic. Getting cat stuff, like petting a cat then touching my eye, makes my eye itch insanely, and the white of my eye swells up like gelatin. Rinsing my eye seriously in the shower is a cure, but it is still scary. My sister has the same allergy.

Well then, don't touch your eye!

I had that problem as well and had to make sure I kept my hands away from my eyes after petting our kittehs. I guess after being around them for so many years now I am no longer reactive to their dander and fur. I also take Singulair for allergies, so I'm sure that helps, too. I can't even imagine my life without cats! Itchy eyes or no itchy eyes.

No downstairs in my house. The war goes on. ;^)

My barely 8 lb. Stella manages to somehow take me from near the middle of a king-sized bed, when she settles down against my side at night, to me hanging off the side of the mattress in the a.m.. My back starts aching and I wake up to find that she has done this and I have no memory of moving there!

No cat in bed, thank you.

However, an easy chair, a throw blanket, and a cat on my lap is the best possible combination for a relaxing nap.

The cat does his part responsibly. He comes trotting over when he hears the footrest go up on the easy chair.
