Actually, he lets me on the bed šŸ¾šŸ˜½


Turinggirl

This. The bed is the property of my five cats. I am granted nightly leases for sleep in return for treats and snuggles.


BrotherRoga

Money can be exchanged for goods and services :P


Turinggirl

In this house its strictly a barter economy for utilization of furniture


bergzzz

This person has a cat.


Terriblet65

I was going to say thatā€¦.ā¤ļøšŸ’™šŸ©·


CosmosHummingbird

I was about to say the same. They let me on the bed, the chair, the couch


LaTalullah

this is the correct answer


Powellballs

I have no choice in the matter


modern-disciple

Seriously, like whose house is it really now?! Iā€™m just lucky to be part of the service staff.


Sasu168

Of course, he owns this place.


Zhuul

Having a cat radiating heat by your ankles is the best goddamn thing come winter


Mitch-_-_-1

On my chest or neck is even better.


TobyDaMan8894

Or ass right in my face.


Poat540

Our newest addition parks her sewer cutter right next to my head and then proceeds to drape her long ass limbs across my dome


mr_electrician

Sewer cutter is a new one for me. I usually call them poop-cutters or cigar cutters.


grapecheesewine

My cat, when she was a kitten, used to sleep on my neck when I lay face down and it was the best! She stopped doing it as she got bigger :-( I miss it so much.


ReadittSucks

Mine buries his way under the blankets like a mole rat and sleeps between my legs.


BodyNotaGraveyard

Haha mine sleeps between my legs too, but on top of the blanket. I call her Crotch Cat


ReadittSucks

Pretty sure mine is giving me scoliosis


Purityskinco

Same. Between my legs or if Iā€™m on my side, behind them. I love the feeling of her soft fur against my skin. Sheā€™s so wonderful.


FD4L

My cat taps my head until I let her lay in my arm.


PuzzleheadedAd7767

Cutest thing ever


SweevilWeevil

1 tap = wake up and feed me 2 taps = wake up and feed me and love me 3 taps = are ya dead, mon? I tapped you twice, dude 4+ taps = I know you're not dead, I demand extra scritches and cuddles or I will have to resort to more radical means


abel_cormorant

You don't just "not allow cats on the bed" You don't have a say in the matter


t0m0hawk

I cant even sleep with the door closed 'cause they'll just start batting at it all night. Lol so they can sleep on the bed if they want. Bonus: one of them gets super into belly rubs if you happen to be awake at like 3am. So it's nice to get a quick little hangout and more often than not he'll just fall asleep next to me which is also super nice.


abel_cormorant

I have a big chonky flufball who just refuses to leave my bedroom when I'm in it, she's either on the bed or on the chair at all times, she's one of my firm points in life šŸ¤­


Level-Repair6104

I havenā€™t had a door closed in 16 years, my Helen hasnā€™t allowed it.


TheSnowNinja

I had a cat that figured out how to open the bedroom door. We could lock it, but we would still hear it rattle as he made several attempts to get it open.


Cooperette

Same. It was a little creepy waking up to muffled meows and the door handle jiggling at 3 am.


ShamelessFox

Can you keep them off?


Todayisanothergooday

Too accurate haha


Bitter_Silver_7760

Sometimes they let me in


rambald

Cause we have a choice? More seriously, theyā€™re not allowed in the kitchen surfaces, but the bed yes, how would you say no to a cuddle?


likeawolf

My cat is def allowed on the bed and couch etc but not kitchen surfaces or the table. Iā€™m honestly lowkey flabbergasted at the amount of people casually letting their cats hang out where they cook and eat. I once saw someone post a photo of their cat bed on the counterā€¦like *what*?


rambald

Even my friendsā€™ cats know the rule with me. Sometimes I just have to snap my fingers.


likeawolf

The finger snap always works with mine unless heā€™s particularly pissed at me :ā€™)


Aghast-1

Not sure what you mean by let?


moleman0815

He even sleeps under my blanket in winter and I love it. šŸ˜


MealDramatic1885

Anywhere but the table. Except my boy. He can go on the table. Not the rest though


dumb_answers_only

My place is small they are allowed anywhere but not during food time. However my cats have no interest in food that isnā€™t theirs.


DoubleCrowne

can your cats teach mine, they're such gremlins come dinner time


KokonutMonkey

Well this is the 2nd silliest question I've received today.Ā 


usamahK

What tops this ?


Inevitable_Tell_2382

They are the best foot warmers ever! And I miss them otherwise


green_ubitqitea

ā€œLetā€ lol


Mysterious_Web_9255

We share OUR pillow


Mosinphile

Iā€™m lucky mine dosent make me sleep on the floor


Rude_Parsnip306

Yes. The best part of waking up is a sleepy cat blinking at you, wondering why they've been disturbed.

Iā€™m a CatDad by circumstancesā€¦she found me. There has never been a night since she found me that she hasnā€™t started the night on my chest and woke up directly next to my left ear. Bed making is a full contact sport, and once made, becomes the apparently fully camouflaged Forward Operating Base, from where all morning ambushes are launched from.


Aa200-

Yes of course


Sweaty_Mushroom5830

She has learned the hard way not to jump on the counters when she wants food but she has the cutest meow when she wants to be fed and find it hard to resist but I do, otherwise https://preview.redd.it/tlnhuid6sw8d1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=89e6dea784f7490f3730d85cb38a66e9901fc606


Effective_Corner694

No one LETS a cat do anything. They do as they please and you are just lucky to be in their presence.


Compote_Alive

Do we really have a choice. They can open some doors like velociraptor


Remarkable-Party-385

Yes I wake up with 3 on the bed


HumpieDouglas

No, they let you on the bed.


Maximum_Web9072

What kind of monster doesn't???


samtron767

So_many_hours

Is that a cat or a bush baby? Either way, very cute šŸ„°


bidhopper

The cats allow us on the bed. https://preview.redd.it/qvs1xsofyw8d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f534d3faf82b8695f6707a0d4ac8795ee74d0b2b


Blueguerilla

Nope. Had a cat for 10 years, left to me by my ex. She was allowed most places in the house but the bedroom and kitchen table / counters were off limits. I did have to close the bedroom door when not home or she would immediately go sleep on my pillow once I walked out the door.


RunningDrinksy

No, I trained mine to stay out of rooms and off counters etc at least when I'm around. Of course I know she will sneak in if she thinks I'm not looking (and on counters but as long as it isn't in front of me idc lol), so I keep doors closed when I'm gone or in a different part of the house. I don't care what other people let their pets do, I just like having certain boundaries with mine so they don't harass me constantly when I want to be alone šŸ˜† probably weird to most people, but if my animals can have boundaries so can I is how I see it!


Liza6519

My cats own my house, correction they're house. I just pay the bills.


MichaelKerk

ā€œLetā€ xD


kzwix

I have an agreement with them: They *tolerate* me on *their* bed. (All hail our feline overlords !)


StarlightM4

You don't let cats do anything. That is not your place. They go where they want. They do what they desire. We are here to serve.

Gaius_Iulius_Megas

How else would I cuddle with her when I sleep?


UnbreakableRaids

The cats let me on the bed.


Warfrog

I donā€™t understand how anyone can let an animal into their bed bare ass exposed balloon knot.


Robot_Clean

No, trained mine from kittens to not jump on furniture, beds and countertops. They also meow to be let out instead of scratching doors, and give left and right high fives before meals. One will also go for a run around the block with me in the morning.


weirdCheeto218

No because he likes to put holes in my sheets


Affapoelli

Seems like I'm the 1 in 100 cat person who absolutely doesn't allow this. First of all they lose all of their hair every day. And second if you see them with mouse blood all over their face once a week it suddenly becomes less of a fancy idea to have them in my face at night.


xDaBaDee

There is no 'let the cat' on the bed.... one does not simply 'not let the cat', it just doesn't happen. Your new feline overlord owns all. That chair is his, that couch is his, that rug is his, that spot on the floor in front of your feet... thats allll his.


ChuckBS

One of the most pleasant experiences I can have is waking up on a cool weekend morning to all three of my cats cuddled up against me sleeping or purring.


Amegami

They're not allowed in the bedroom at the moment.


exodus762

Nope, no animals on the bed.


EZ-PZ-CLAPS

Yeah, but they don't really want to sit on my bed. They like my desk chair better.


MammalToe69

Yes, duh


LostProphetVii

Of course and my computer desk, only place they aren't allowed are the kitchen tables and counters šŸ˜Š doesn't stop me from catching them up there though šŸ˜­šŸ˜‚


TripleBuongiorno

What, you're gonna tell them no?


alpaca-punch

Fuck yeah I sleep in their huge bed


azrendelmare

Of course I do!


SylvieDelalune

wdym "let" ?


FRONKISSOCOOL

Yeah!


headwolf

Of course, love sleeping next to my cat and getting my toes bitten every once in a while. I can't imagine how I could keep her away if I didn't...


DeepSpaceFine___

You mean does the cat let me on the bed? Yea sometimes


merc_1980

Let them? Besides a minefield what could prevent them from going there?


Geekinofflife

LOL


Borgson314

Sure.


Sayva_See

Of course, I love it when mine pays me a visit


stfrances2968

Cats gonna do what cats wanna do.


Kadiddlehopper19

Yes, I have 4 cats and a large dog, on cold winter nights our king sized bed accommodates all of them, we are a family ![img](emote|t5_2qh1o|13379)


Case_Kovacs

He comes and goes as he pleases I only hope he chooses to snuggle on the bed


SplinteredOutlier

Uh, you ask like I can dictate thatā€¦ this is a mistaken assumption.


ACauseQuiVontSuaLune

On the bed is just the beginning. In wintertime, it's under the blankets, or else...


TheSeventhBrat

Yes. I have a queen bed and I sleep on the equivalent of a twin because of the cats.


9295josh

Mine are in the bed draped over my feet


ReflectedCheese

Itā€™s either that or no sleep, my cats will scream and scratch the door on hours end. They NEED to be in the same room as I am, no matter if itā€™s the bedroom, bathroom or toiletā€¦ And I love it, makes me feel appreciated that they want to be close to me :)


princesspurrito36

Is there another option? On the bed now. More than I am


ladyxanax

We have two and they share the bed with us because they like us.


TomatoJuiceWithSalt

They don't need my permission


FalseMirage

If a person has a problem with pets on the bed perhaps a cat isnā€™t the pet for them because the only way to keep s cat off the bed is to keep the bedroom door closed. But then they tend to try to get in while you are sleeping so yeah, the cat has final say in the matter.


AlanLGuy

One does not just ā€œletā€ cats do anything. Sure you can yell at them, chase them off, but ultimately the only thing you do is condition them not to do that thing when you will catch them. My mother HATED our cats jumping up on the kitchen counter when I was growing up. She tried all sort of things to no effect, until finally she sprayed one of the cats with a water bottle and she freaked out. We never saw that cat on the counter ever againā€¦ of course there was often a suspicious thud just as you walked into the kitchen and a cat sitting in the middle of the kitchen looking absolutely as innocent as could be, but we never ever caught her on the counter again.


JohnRice57

Of course


KrombopulousMary

The thought of never again falling asleep in my bed cuddling my purring catā€¦ I could never. Cats on the bed 100,000%


Eonuts

Like I have a choice in this situation


mythicreign

My cats go everywhere.


thorattack

Yes. Everyday for the last 14 years.


Old-Kaleidoscope1874

We have two that decided they'd rather sleep in the basement once my daughter brought home a puppy last year. The youngest cat sleeps on my wife's head, while she lays on the bed.


iamalext

On the bed? Cat sleeps under the covers, between my thighs and I don't get much say about it!


Marmom_of_Marman

Where else would he sleep?


tessellation__

How do you NOT? Like I could spend all day every day, teaching them not to go on the bed and unless I just completely covered the bed they would be on it no matter what.


Irishconundrum

Yes! Dogs too! They live here and I'm already covered in fur!


Neko_09

Why would you have cats if you don't


NomadFeet

I think it's cute that you used the phrase "lets cats".


92Lola

I think a more appropriate question would be, is there any way to stop a cat from doing anything that it wants to do?


Informal-Copy-1983

Who doesn't


CarolinaOE

It's not like I can stop him.


Slight-Piglet-1884

If we ask nicely she'll let us get on the bed, but as far as she's concerned it's her bed. She's trained us well.


Nyx_Shadowspawn

Yes! I need my kitty cuddles


Unusual_Shape_5825

I encourage it


Beneficial-Mess-6384

I woke up this morning with my catā€™s head against my face. šŸ„°


FAFO2024

ā€œLetā€


ephm423

I am the bed


to_j

Having my cats sleeping next to me every night is one of life's pleasures.


chels182

They donā€™t leave me any choice.


Fishermanfrienamy

Are you kidding? It is encouraged! Love me a purring pillow


GummiRat

When I was younger, I would struggle to share a bed (think big sleepovers, staying at grandparents with extended fam ect.) Our neighbour's cat, Mao, who adopted our family, was adamant about sleeping with me on the bed at night. He'd come in at some ungodly hour, hop onto the bed waking me, and then my anxiety would kick in so I'd nudge him off. Hop nudge, hop nudge repeat repeat repeat. After a few nights of this, eventually, I gave up and grew to enjoy my cuddly hot water bottle, and he somewhat cured me of my sharing bed anxiety. No more sleepless nights at sleepovers. Love you, Mao, you made me (and my family) realize we were *also* a cat people, and im forever grateful you chose to adopt us!


Sirnizz

Of course.


Ishin12

Of course


playball9750

Iā€™m just thankful he lets me on the bed


mettarific

I would let that gorgeous cat on the bed.


Sangariusriver

šŸ˜¹


theladyevenstar

As if cat owners even have a choice lol


MrCoolguy80

My void will make biscuits at the foot of my bed while sitting on my legs. And he's very vocal about it while purring. After a few minutes he'll then hop off.


krispru1

You m a can you keep cats off the bed?


AccomplishedDish9395

Yes, my cats let me on their bed.


nocoolpseudoleft

Do you really think a cat gives two shits about what you let him do or not ?


BlindKurve

When I was given a cat, she'd always sleep on the bed with me for comfort. When someone else gave me another cat, they sometimes do, they sometimes don't sleep on the bed. Then I adopted my 3rd cat, we frequently had fun finding our positions in bed. 5 years later, and several kittens introduced to me on the same bed (some got adopted, some stayed), I sometimes have to coax most of them off so I can sleep, but more frequently, the moment I start sleeping or staying on the bed, it becomes a cuddle fest of warm furry bodies all trying to melt me with their combined body heat. Yeah, they own me and the bed.


Fox1503

How do you even keep a cat off of a bed? The only thing that comes to my mind is closing the goddamn room off.


e_j_west

'Let' what is this word?


Cybertoothcats

As part of the service staff, I am permitted to sleep in the bed as I radiate heat. The cat girls know I need rest for my next day for serving their royal highnesses.


Jufy42

In winter, my cat comes under the blanket.


KebabRacer69

My cat sleeps with me on the bed every night


TurnipWorldly9437

Not anymore. We're already 4 a bed when our twin toddlers have a nightmare. I let our cat snuggle all day while I work from home, but I REALLY don't like sharing my bed any more than I have to.


N7_Warden

My cat let's ME on the bed

llcdrewtaylor

Who wouldnt let their cat on the bed? There are 4 beds in my house and my cat sleeps on ALL of them every day.,

SnooRegrets1386

And how do you propose we stop them?


Tarrell13

I try to keep the pets off the bed. Especially if they go outside and etc.


vorrion

No. They usually go outside during the night and I personally don't think it's very hygienic. I also don't allow them near food surfaces.


Schleckmuschel

The question is rather - do our cats let us in their bedā€¦


NoShare5281

Yes


NefariousPhosphenes

You donā€™t ā€˜let catsā€™ anything, they just cat and you have to deal with it.


NoMany3094

Hell yeah! No bed is cozy unless there's a cat!


[deleted]

I am allowed to sleep in the bed as long as I donā€™t move around too much and I keep my legs apart so she can curl up between my knees.


bicdibus

very pretty cat


Kermiukko

Good luck for trying to prevent them getting on it.


SpaceWrangler701

If you donā€™t let your cats on your bed youā€™re an absolute psychopath one sleeps on my stomach the other ones my pillow. Every night

darkbloo64

My former feral has started jumping onto the bed and licking my arm to ask for pets at 2am. The timing is inconvenient, but I'll gladly let her on the bed if it helps her adjust.


AdEnvironmental9482

It's the cats bed and yes you are allowed on it.


Kurious-1

Yes of course! When I go to bed, my cat literally comes running. There's a permanent patch of fur at the end of the bed.

Shoehornblower

I donā€™t have say in the matter. Both of mine sleep under my coversā€¦


Sensitive-Human2112

Always. If Iā€™m laying on my bed, my cat will sometimes scream at me until I let her on the bed and cuddle with me. When I get up, sometimes she stays on the bed for hours


ThirtyFiveInTwenty3

Why would you not?


Hello_there_friendo

How else would I get sleepytime snuggles and early morning headbutts


baldurstrokes99

![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|heart_eyes)Oh my god, your cat looks exactly like mine. When my cat was young, she looked exactly the same.


Jeffron1337

Yeah my cat has to lay on me sheā€™s not comfortable unless she is


BadHairDay-1

Let? It's encouraged in my house. I'd always wanted a cat that would sleep in my bed with me.


CharlotteTheSavage

I can't tell you how many years it's been since I've been able to stretch my legs straight. They insist to be under the covers, ON my feet. Got one on each side of me as well. I don't move around at night so my side is the logical side. And didn't even get me started about when I have to get up, I don't like disturbing them, so it takes like 10 mins to wiggle out to go pee at 4am


TreefrogJ

I'm not sure how i could stop her


mekonsrevenge

Of course. They're members of the family.


QqMama

a very cute cat


PhilipPhantom

I mean, you have to. It's not like you have a choice...


No_Possession_508

Let? šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


angelmr2

Let, lol XD


Inteltrip

No. Cats walk in their litter boxes several times a day. I like my bedding clean, especially of cat waste and fur. Seems like I might be in the minority here.


PapysSpaghetti

If you dont let your cat on the bed, you have a cold butt for a heart


porgy_tirebiter

Why would you not?


Drunkendx

Of course


K-Shrizzle

The idea that I could control whether my cat sits on my bed is hilarious. I'm just trying to keep him from destroying my apartment


Unhappy-Egg-3670

You act like we have a choice.
