When I had cats, they learned real quick. I turn in my sleep, and their cries don't wake me up. So they'd sleep at the foot of the bed. They'd sleep at the headboard of the bed. But they learned real quick do NOT sleep in the middle.

Sorry Karmalee...

Whereas my body will always betray me in order to let tiny cats sleep comfortably! Even sleeping it will not roll so as to not hurt them. Then I wake up feeling like I slept on the floor cause I never moved and released pressure.

Ever since nursing school when I wake up in that post-REM haze my brain goes "reposition: right-side-lying to supine" then two hours later "reposition: supine to left side lying" then two hours after that down into prone. I'm like a lil half-conscious rotisserie chicken...

My daytime sleep schedule has hubs and I in a temporal bedroom divorce and he very much prefers things that way. Sometimes on the rare occasion that I have to sleep at night he storms off to the couch in a huff.

No it would be one of the several socially inappropriate nicknames patients have given me and which I will not be repeating here due to the extent that they correlate with my many physical deformities and are thus personally identifiable.

I have three cats. Solution is simple. Remove spine, rib cage, intestines, upper and lower hip bones.

Literally me right now with a cat on one side and a black lab on the other. I get like a foot width column of space on my bed, usually on a diagonal

I sleep with the cat tucked under one arm. I don't move in my sleep, and she remains in that position until morning.
