Where does your cat sleep at night?

I have a 16 week old cat and as cute as he is, sleeping with him in the room can be a nightmare. When he's on the bed, I can't sleep properly because I'm so worried about myself or my partner rolling onto him! This means I never sleep deeply because I'm always on alert. He also loves to climb on my pillow leaving me no room.

On the other hand, I feel absolutely awful for some reason shutting him out of our bedroom or downstairs! He has places to sleep, eat, drink, play and toilet of course, but I can't help but feel bad for not letting him snuggle with us.

I am 32 weeks pregnant and do realise that when the baby is here he won't be able to be in the same room anyway because he of course will inevitably jump into the crib.

So where do your cats sleep (or not sleep!) in your house? Hopefully I'm not being cruel and it's just my pregnancy emotions making me feel bad Grin I

Boycat sleeps on my bed or the spare bed. Girlcat on my bed cuddled up against me. Last night I was holding her paw and she put her other paw on top of my hand. Smile
Sometimes they will sleep one either side of me, especially if it's cold.
Sometimes boycat will decide he wants to be where girlcat is and makes her move!

Mine sleeps on a tall cat tree in my room. Occasionally she will sleep on the bed but I toss and turn which disturbs her royal highness - so that doesn't last long.
