Title: Matching beds.... why not?
Post by: tigerbaby on April 23, 2008, 13:16:50 PM
So, yesterday I thought it would be a great idea to make a bed for Jameson to match ours! And I'm pretty happy with the result - whatcha think?
Jameson doesn't care for his new bed though, what a surprise!  :Crazy:
(OH thinks I'm absolutely mad... surely I'm not...I'm completely normal by MY standards. He he!) .... oh.. and I do work full-time by the way!  :evillaugh:

Leo will certainly need King Size! I got him a Pyramid type bed. 3 Months ago maximum.. & he just can't fit now. He hangs out of it!! He only just fits in his carrier that I take him to the vet in.

It's made out of 2 cardboard boxes and some sticky zebra print paper!

And of course he still hasn't gone near it!

OH is learning. Every night Jameson will place himself on OH's side of the bed and get grumpy when poor OH trying to sneak under the cover. Jameson then places himself in between us, on top of duvet and creates a little wedge for himself in which he sleeps in on his back with all his paws up in the air. He looks very cute, but he's a real pain in the  :censored:

Ah I do love how my cats can read my mind....they also lay in between us!  :evillaugh:

The cat bed is super...hows about spraying with a bit of catnip? If it dos'nt work for Jameson then maybe the OH will succumb!  ;) :rofl:

Yep, cats really don't want you to be close to anyone but them, do they? Old Mog was an utter nightmare when I first got together with my partner. She insisted on sitting in between us when we watched TV and sleeping in between us at night - I'm surprised he stuck around! :evillaugh:

So after a few weeks of ignoring it, I turned around last night to find him sleeping in it. Hope it's not a one-off thing, as this morning I found him stretched out on his fave sleeping spot again.

Be grateful, my previous cats Suki, Cleo, Jade & Sam all slept on the bed, with me and my then OH.  Their preference was me unfortunately, I lay on my side, Cleo on top of me, Suki under the covers in my lap, Sam on my feet and Jade on my head.  You were not permitted to move at all, and if you did, they just gave you a few seconds and there they were right back in the same postions. My present cat, Jake,  prefers to be back to back wih me.
