to wonder how I have got it so wrong that dd is napping next to me

[SouthernFriedTofu]

in my bed. And that the sodding cat is asleep in her crib?

Sounds normal to me

that is what happened here too, ds started to sleep in my bed and the cat in the moses basket

ds i still in my bed nearly 4 years later and the cat has joined us

Bloody cat would never ina millino years fit in a moses back fat arse cat

I am going to sound like a right old fart but enjoy it while it lasts.

Do you mean dd napping or dcat in her bed TCF

heronsfly when shoudl I expect dcat to progress to a toddler bed...

It has lasted in our house, dds 2&3 age 12 and 14 are sprawled on my bed watching a dvd, and both of their beds has a cat asleep on its pillow !

FreudianSlipper Perhaps the cat simply misheard you, and thought you mentioned the mouses basket...?!

Actually laughed out loud at the mental image- then got a bit sad

Thats gross that a cat sleeps in your babys bed, they are the greatest harbingers of fleas.

TheDetective get your coat...

FabbyChic mine haven't got fleas, don't go out side and eat considerably less crap that they find on the floor than dd. Technically they should be disgusted to sleep in her bed...

Can't SouthernFriedTofu, the cat is sleeping on it

:) made me chuckle

my cat has not got fleas. though he does lick his bum and licks our feet

Sounds about normal to me. In cat's mind: warm? check. enclosed? check. nice and soft for my delicate torso? check. a suitable place for my precocious, grandious tendencies? check. perfectly legitimate location to snooze as this entire house is actually MINE. ALL. MINE? check.

YANBU

that you have a cat though, I grew up with them but can't have them in my top floor flat where I live now really.

bit grossed out about a cat sleeping in moses basket.... no matter how much they are part of the family they are animals. they lick they're arse ffs!

*their

To be fair, humans do just as gross stuff...!

the moses basket became his bed, ds moved to mine

now we all share :o i love being woken up by ds then the cat having his share of hugs too, he usualy snuggles in the middle to remind ds he was around first

Um scuzy could I kindly direct you to this thread if you ever have a stuck poo.

Lest you be under the impression that humans or indeed your fellow mumsnetters are not equally as gross as cats

nice and soft for my delicate torso

One of my cats has taken to sleeping on my head lately! Last night the other one dragged a folded double duvet cover off the bannister and slept on it - still all folded up. And hairy. Tut.

I bought a beautiful very comfortable kingsize bed last xmas me and dh have spent about three nights since then together in it usually contains at least one if not both my children sprawled out and me sleeping on the edge and dh in one of the childrens beds

I had a head sleeper! but he was a kitten who had been seperated much to young from his mother and woudl snuggle up and suckle your hair! :(

Dh took to wearing a rasta hat (with hair) his mum brought him from holiday to bed and I had a showercap. What if we had been robbed in the night!?
