Our two cats would love to sleep with us but they are not allowed. This is partly because they often catch things at night but they also sometimes have boisterous games of chase up and down the hall and across our bed. They don't appreciate late breakfasts either so the bedroom door is firmly closed! They sit leaning against the outside!!

Cats all sleep on the bed with us. Fine when they were kittens, but now they’re bigger we have less space...

My little black cat comes to bed with me and snuggles up on the bed next to me.

All is well until around 5am when she starts podding about and wanting to sit on my head.....I'm afraid that's when she gets chucked out of the bedroom with the bedroom door firmly closed behind her.

No pets here but if we had them they certainly wouldn't be sleeping with us.

My pet has been sleeping in the garage since the end of October. I wouldn't fancy a tortoise in my bed for months on end!!!! grin

Don’t have any pets, but if I did they wouldn’t be sleeping with me.

Absolutely not. No cats upstairs. A big enough chore to stay on top of cat hairs downstairs.

And if so, does it help you sleep? Or do they keep you awake?

Feel free to share pics of them too!
