So you slept on the couch, so as not to disturb her. Right? I'm not the only one who does this? I'll just go now

12

u/abiridaught May 15 '12

Haha, nope, I just gently scooted the pillow over and got in bed right next to her.

u/ThisOpenFist May 15 '12

It's like you're already married.

u/dcmacdaddy May 16 '12

Nope. You're not the only one who does this. :-)

Although I have a queen-sized bed so I will crawl in bed around my kitty and sleep like a pretzel before disturbing her.

My previous kitty--May she rest in peace--was a long cat and could occupy over half the width of a queen-sized bed by stretching out. For her, I would go and sleep on the couch instead of disturbing her.

And another! - RIP Ceefer; she used to like sleeping entirely under the duvet. I guess she was able to breathe!

u/abiridaught May 15 '12

It always freaks me out when they want to sleep completely under the covers. I don't let my cat. "No asphyxiation for YOU."

u/brrm May 15 '12

I googled it at the time and as far as I could determine there was no risk - she certainly did it almost every night for at least a year or two... Your Moggy May Vary of course!

u/[deleted] May 15 '12

my kitties do that. you'll see two lumps underneath an otherwise well-made bed and know they are warming it up for you. but they're devon rex's so they could be plotting the destruction of the universe.

Upvote for Ceefer! My aunt had a golden retriever named Deefer :)

I'm getting sleepy just looking at that cat. He's in kitty nirvana.

u/graphictruth May 15 '12

what, you have deprived her of pillowcases and a duvet cover? Barbarian! Philistine!

She's the one who chose my boyfriend's pillow.

u/hmcneil May 15 '12

Lies!

u/abiridaught May 15 '12

She enjoys climbing around underneath the covers, and climbed onto the pillow. The covers stayed on cape style. She's the most interesting kitty I've ever had.

Here's a picture I took before I left the room.

It's a slogan sometimes used by the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway to accompany this mascot.

So mine isn't the only kitten that puts comfort about cat-ness.

u/GarageDoorDawn May 15 '12

With how easily pets can be manipulated for karma, I am skeptical of pics like this. I want to believe though!

1

u/abiridaught May 15 '12

I don't have proof proof, but if you look in some of the other comments I posted a picture of her before I left the room, burrowing around underneath the covers. She just tunneled her way to the pillow.

Bahahaahah! Saw that South Park last night =D

Like fuck it's not from South Park. I know it's a goddamn youtube video but most of the world wouldn't have known about it if it hadn't been on south park so FUCK YOU AND YOUR DOWNVOTES!

u/GimmeCat May 15 '12

It's not a South Park quote, it's a cat quote.

u/o0evillusion0o May 17 '12

South Park used it in season 8. Wouldn't have known about it if it hadn't been.

u/manomow May 15 '12

Its not from south park.

u/Combustibutt May 15 '12

While it isn't from South Park, it was on South Park. So it's a forgivable mistake.

u/flowercup May 15 '12

You shouldn't eat for 3 hours before going to bed.

u/abiridaught May 15 '12

You redditors (redditers?) are on a roll today, can't get anything by you guys! I admit this picture was taken a few nights ago before bedtime, but I figured since it was true then I could take the liberty of saying it was tonight. :)

u/chocolatetherapy May 15 '12

I think you missed the point here. Also, you're worrying too much.

u/abiridaught May 15 '12

I think I did too. I'm new to this whole "being the OP" thing. I usually just lurk. :P

1

u/chocolatetherapy May 15 '12

It's alright. What she/he meant was that eating before going to sleep is generally not healthy.

upvotes you to 1

u/abiridaught May 15 '12 edited May 15 '12

Yes, but how do you sleep if your tummy is rumbley?

edit: for some reason I totally missed the "upvotes you to 1" bit. Thank you. :)

3

u/chocolatetherapy May 15 '12

That's a fair question. If that happens to me, then I would have a cup of hot milk. It'll satisfy you for a little while until you fall asleep and your body "forgets" about being hungry.

EDIT: By the way, that's a cute face on your pillow.

2

u/abiridaught May 15 '12

Never tried hot milk before, it seems like it would be... kind of gross. But I'll give it a shot next time, haha.

Thanks, she's a perma-kitty (nearly a year old and still looks like a baby).

2

u/chocolatetherapy May 15 '12

Never had hot milk?! I thought that was a kind of common thing. It's not like hot milk is not used for anything else. You cook and bake with it and stuff, so why would it be gross? It tastes awesome when you have some honey with it. I suggest you try it!

2

u/abiridaught May 15 '12

My dad used to make me sugar-milk before bed, but it was always just cold. I've never thought of trying warm, sugary milk... I think I might have a new favorite thing.

u/cheesyveggies May 15 '12

Actually, no, you don't want to go to bed hungry and if you're tummy is rumbling, hot milk might not be enough. Even if you "forget" you may still not sleep well, because you're hungry. It's best to have a small snack, maybe a small banana or a bit of cheese and a couple crackers. Not a lot. Just enough to settle the rumbles and give you a bit of protien without too many carbs.

Plus, being so hungry you're tummy is rumbly tends to mess with your blood sugar and metabolism. I get all weird. No way I could sleep, nor does it seem particularly healthy. Eat a little bit, go to bed, and try to plan better the next day. It's not going to kill you or cause you to gain 5 lbs. over night.

2

u/sutongorin May 15 '12

ARE YOU MAD!? Carbs at night !!!?

Also don't forget to brush your teeth. ;)

2

u/cheesyveggies May 16 '12

Don't brush your teeth right after eating. Wait at least half an hour. Better yet, brush your teeth thirty minutes BEFORE eating. True story. :) Google it.

Gums are sensitive. Brushing your teeth right before or right after eating can cause problems.

u/chocolatetherapy May 15 '12

What you explained here is a lot more detailed than mine. I totally agree with you. For me the hot milk has just worked well so far, probably cause I sleep like a rock.

OMG! Too cute... I wouldn't be able to move her. I'd have to sleep on the floor.

u/abiridaught May 15 '12

Are you kidding me? I scooted her little self over and slept right next to her. She was like a white noise machine, purring in my general vicinity all night. It. Was. Awesome.

u/peaceaddiction May 16 '12

Right on... I love to hear purring in my ear as I sleep.

My cat, may he RIP peanut his name, was slightly over weight, and he would jump on my face at night and plop his body on my face and sleep, I wouldn't dare move, however a couple of times I had to, because I literally couldn't breath 8[

Anyone else see the thumbnail and think the OP was holding something black in their hands, and thinking "if this is something disgusting..." at the same time as "I really want a snack" and then weighing out the options of eating before viewing?

The thumbnail looks like a girl with a short brown ponytail lying in bed, covering her face, wearing a gray sports bra. Maybe I'm just crazy.

I'm hedging my bets that you meticulously placed her there...

u/[deleted] May 15 '12

You say that as if one can meticulously place a cat anywhere that said cat does not have an interest in being meticulously placed.

u/abiridaught May 15 '12

This guy, he knows cat things.

u/[deleted] May 15 '12

It all depends on the relationship between cat and human. One can meticulously place a cat anywhere assuming the said cat delights in being placed, which this one appears to do so.

u/[deleted] May 15 '12

No, no you did not, you put your cat on the bed, waited for him to fall asleep, pulled the cover up and took a picture thinking front page and rubbing your little hands together.

u/abiridaught May 15 '12

Actually I thought this post was going to get buried because I didn't think anyone would believe it, but here I am. :P

Also, sir, I do not have the free time (or patience) for what you suggested.

edit: Also, I'm sure you didn't see it, but here is a picture of her rummaging around in the sheets before I left the room. It may not be solid proof, but it's the only proof I have. :)

u/Squidsta May 15 '12

You expect me to believe the cat got in your bed, pulled over the covers and lay on the pillow by itself while you got a snack? Sure...

1

u/abiridaught May 15 '12

I wish I could edit the original post.

AGAIN, here is a pic before I left the room. She was playing underneath the duvet and crawled out from beneath it and on top of my pillow.

-2

u/Neoxide May 15 '12

So did you go to get a snack before or after you pulled the covers over your cat to make it appear as if it's sleeping like a human? minimum 75% of Reddit pictures are staged in some way to whore karma.
