Well, my 3 cats, though siblings, don't actually get along.
They usually sleep in different rooms.
George always slept on my bed, but I have noticed that since I turned one radiator on upstairs, in the 'middle' bedroom, he sleeps on my bed for a while (until he thinks I'm asleep), then sneaks off into the middle bedroom (where Mister cat normally sleeps) until about 6am, when he comes back on to my bed.
He and Mister now have the odd 'spat' for the best place (on/between the pillows right by the radiator).

When I go away, I have to explain to the lady who feeds my cats why there is a plastic/paper carrier bag in the middle of the floor

Betty always sleeps downstairs, in various places, a newspaper on the floor, paper or plastic carrier bag, very occasionally on the sofa or chair.
Her latest 'bed' (for the past month) is on an old fleece of mine on a dining chair, right by the radiator. The fleece was put on the dining chair as it didn't need ironing - it desperately needs washing (again) now!! :-S

Uzzi

Sadly we lost our girl last July aged 17 plus but boy do we miss her

we are both getting a bit long in the tooth so have said we wont take on another pet BUT its difficult to stick with it cos we both miss her like crazy and the house isnt the same without her

I do have her picture snoozing on our bedroom window sill as my screen saver ,I talk too her every time I log in and tell her I love and miss you

its funny though for some time after she passed I would see her out of the corner of my eye coming into the lounge ,and several times when in bed I felt a thump and felt my legs pinned down in the bed , I truly think she was still with us and hadnt moved on

You're lucky she lets you sleep in her house! I'm sure she think you're her maid.

Its a dogs life after all

Our girl cat Mirabelle claimed our bed as hers but also liked sleeping on the landing outs side the bedroom so she caught the warm air heating rising up the staircase .

I mean one has to be comfy after all lol :-D

My bedroom is a large area, a very large area. My bathroom is small.

I have a heater in the bedroom until Minx went into the airing cupboard so I moved the heater to the bathroom :-0

She and the heater are now back in the bedroom. Sometimes I worry about me :-D
