The love of my life, "Baboo" is my 23 year old cat. He sleeps in my bed and folds himself into my arms, chest, neck, wherever, all night. Sometimes he separates from me by a few inches or goes under his own blanket which I also place for him to the side, should he decide that's what he wants. Occasionally he pees or even defecates while sleeping, that's why I cover my bed with plastic sheets under my cloth sheets - just in case. To me, when this happens it is only a very small inconvenience for me to immediately change the bed nice and fresh. I also get up a few times a night to take him to the litter box should he need to go. It is most important to me that Baboo has his time with me whenever, wherever, however, whatever it takes, pee & poop aside. Baboo's comfort and desire to sleep by me takes precedence over all else in this regard. I understand that what I have described above would be ok for only a very select few, but that's how important Baboo and my pets are to me. They are my everything!
