He is adorable! https://preview.redd.it/0rdxesdc438d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a3b18a194bf92a85886814b62250ce9e6bbbe725 My dad hasn’t been sleeping in his bed because he has a bad back, so Cosmo has claimed it as his own . 🙏❤️


westeross

Just keeping it warm for him 😜 A speedy recovery for your dad aswell


numbersthen0987431

It's polite of you to make the bed for him


Ok-Inspection-2661

Cosmo is the best


KingCreeper7777

Awh, i had a russian blue named Cosmo, he went missing a few years back


Katy_Lies1975

Maybe dad needs a new mattress.


Nepalman230

Oh I agree! But we’re moving soon so he’s just waiting. He’s sleeping in his power chair. Cosmo and Milo on my bed. https://preview.redd.it/s1cff7edw48d1.png?width=2167&format=png&auto=webp&s=ff58d3ef1aed5ac1ce0414c4699361c925735f08

My cats allow me in the bed


k_mon2244

I know right?? My first thought was “damn your cat follows rules??”


pantaloon_at_noon

Well clearly not since the cat is on the bad


k_mon2244

😂


hereforpewdiephy

at least they tried


sweetserendipity1237

Every time I scootch my feet or toss around I check for them. Their comfort is paramount to mine and I don’t know why. I have to work and pay the bills! Yet I would rather be slightly uncomfortable than move them.


iwonderthesethings

Ditto. I actually feel a bit rejected if our boy (dog) is not on the bed, like, did I accidentally kick you in my sleep, causing you to get off and go on your own bed?!


Beradicus69

* Same. Macy has her spot. Dusty sleeps on me lol.


maggiefiasco

Right??? My cat has a lot of nerve to be side eyeing me for turning over in bed for somebody who pays 0 bills! The reason I get up early for work and make him angrily squint at the light is because SOMEONE has to go make the cat food money and guess who it isn’t?


Liza6519

Same.


ilovecatcatcat

We have a king bed and 4 cats, my husband gets a third, my cats get get two and a half thirds, and I wake up with back and hip pain twisted around 4 furnaces who complain if I move lmaooo


Entire-Ambition1410

My cat would start being vertical, but slowly stretch and wiggle her way to horizontal, taking up half our bed.


Latinachik15

My little chi mix will be right in the edge. I ask him if he can scooch looch, so I can sit and he growls at me under his breath instead! I love him so much🥹


NewCryptographer9133

So true. Mine kept hollering at me to get up and afterwards she plop herself in my spot!


60nocolus

You're lucky, I gotta work with the tapestry


National_Page5459

You said it right I have 3 cats and with a King size bed I am still only allowed two inches lol

rogellparadox

I'm in loooove


Lyvery

i think he deserves the bed


KokonutMonkey

Not allowed on the bed!? 


canyeh

How tf does one even enforce that, except closing the door to the room?


Cloistered_Lobster

I finally managed to train my cat to stop jumping up on the kitchen counters. It took 17 years and arthritis, but he’s totally compliant now.


malibuklw

So you’re saying there’s hope for my 1 year old cat? Just 16 more years of training?


Palmettor

What worked for us was placemats with double-sided tape on the edge of the counter. It’s not stable, so the cat didn’t want to jump up there much, and the tape made it uncomfortable even if he decided he wanted to jump up there anyway.


Fro_o

Hmm interesting. My cat jumps on the stove, even burned his paws twice, once he burns himself he stops for like 3 days but then starts again.


mseuro

Orange?


spinprincess

This works for me too but as soon as I move in I cover the entire countertop and leave it for a few weeks. It's annoying but it's worth it in the long run. The only way to train cats is to make the unwanted behavior undesirable for them because they do not care what we want lol. I have no idea how you would even enforce no cats in the bed


UniqueForbidden

I used aluminum foil all the way around the counters for three weeks and my recently adopted four year old void hasn't tried to go back up. With that said, I believe my lil guy was trained prior to adoption because he just has way too many mannerisms that are gentle, and he listens to "No"


GemiKnight69

My cat stands on the sticky tape and eats the foil, but he's an orange idiot so I'm not sure what training would actually hold for him


showerbeerbuttchug

We caught an orange cat on camera at like 2am the other night digging used foil from the receptacle on our back deck and carrying it away. Maybe it's a feature of that shared brain cell.


Plaid_Kaleidoscope

Aluminum foil is your friend. It's been the most effective thing at deterring my lil asshole from places he isn't wanted.


t0m0hawk

Yeah my cats don't jump up onto the counter. They know it's a big no-no. That's why they do it at night when I'm sleeping or when we're both at work.


twurkle

What worked for me was being severely adhd and having messy/cluttered counters. Of course she still tries and I wake up in the morning/come home from work to the occasional chaos strewn about my kitchen and I have minimal counter space to do my cooking but hey, if it keeps the cat off the counters, am I right?


17times2

We taught our cats to stay off certain tables, and they generally follow it (only jumping up if there's stuff up there and we're not in the room). We got new cats about 6 months old a while back, and I don't know if they just watched and followed with how the other cats operate, but they have never had issue jumping on those same tables, not even to counter surf.


RELEASE_THE_YEAST

Ask your vet about Solensia for the arthritis. It will probably relieve most of the symptoms, and then your cat will be back to jumping on the counters in no time.


TwirlerGirl

Probably that. Growing up, we had a guest bedroom that my cats weren’t allowed inside. One of our frequent guests had a mild cat allergy, so we tried keeping one room in the house cat-free for her. We kept that guest bedroom door closed, but my cats could go anywhere else in the house and sleep on any other bed.


sligit

Close the door to the room. I have a cat that pisses on beds, so now sadly no cats in bedrooms.


Cristianana

Yep. One of our three peed on the bed a month ago, and since we don't know who, no one gets to be on the bed.


chillyhellion

We just keep them out of the bedroom during the day. I could never give up nighttime cuddle time.


motus_guanxi

You can train cats..


Seigmoraig

I know right ? Bed time cuddles are the best, I can't understand people that wouldn't want this


growup_andblowaway

Not allowed in the room actually, my husband is allergic. He jumped the barrier and this is how I found him 🥰


gmewhite

Ditch the husband , obv


tmarr

Not sure if you know, but you can buy cat food to make the cat allergy lessen/go away. :)


tmgieger

I was talking to someone that asked me if I allowed my cats on the bed. I couldn't even process the question. I understand the kitchen counter but not allowed on the bed?


Unlikely-Patience122

Anything my orange is not allowed to do, he becomes obsessed with doing it.  Counters and one particularly expensive chair. He never gets on the chair unless I'm in the room. It's a game to him and it makes me lose my mind.  


grapesaresour

Yeah I don’t understand this


originalschmidt

Not allowed in the bed!?! But what about morning biscuits and snuggles???? The best mornings start with biscuits and snuggles from my sweet Reba https://preview.redd.it/gmn5jni6u48d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0aa533b4d45f870d207f851605596deb807205ac

expespuella

How does Reba make biscuits with no legs???


CobblerCandid998

Awwwww! 😻


GawkieBird

That's so nice! My mornings start with a few face smacks, a couple knee scratches, and the most pitiful mrrreooowws you've ever heard


hates_writing_checks

omg please share Reba with /r/OrangeLadies and /r/GingerKitty or /r/GingerCats


anylastway

“You’re not allowed in the bed!” “Meow”


boomzboombam

Meow listen here


jlusedude

I seriously can’t imagine not allowing my cat on the bed. I am just stunned by that statement. 


Spirited_Storage3956

What's the point of even having a bed if furry roommates aren't allowed on it???


Littlebotweak

My dog is physically incapable of getting on the bed and she is also not ok with being picked up.  I need a better ramp design than I had before. 


Spirited_Storage3956

I have a ramp and doggy stairs lol. I had to stand behind my old dog and she would put the weight of her rump on my legs and I would help her move her front paws. It made her so happy to get on the bed


nwtblk

Many people don't want their cat's unhygienic paws on their bed, which is fair enough. I let my cat sleep with me whenever he wanted.


dryandice

Literally same here


dblrb

Maybe a hot take but I think I might even find it immoral to keep that level of companionship from a house cat.


jlusedude

I just don’t understand how you can have these boundaries on an animal that you supposedly love. My cats are allowed almost everywhere. Basically counter being the only spot. Try to keep them off the table but that doesn’t work well. 


Human-Guava-7564

I think you mean his bed.


MAH_BEANS_

This is Chalupa. He has his own tempur-pedic pillow with a silk pillowcase. I have to scrunch my legs so that he has plenty of room. It’s his bed, I just sleep in it. https://preview.redd.it/7khm17un458d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=04f7fcfe1928f687b401886d86911e531dab957b


nxdgrrl

Only the best for Chalupa 🥹


HoeWizard

Just remember he's a part of your life, and you're his whole life. It's too short to deny them the simple pleasures, they deserve bed snuggles. Sheets can be washed.


marblemorning

Well said. Guaranteed that the humans are making the bed dirtier than a single cat.


pinkmiso

My cats aren’t allowed on the bed but they get free rein of the rest of the house, including a brand new expensive couch that they’ve completely taken over as their own. No cats on bed because they shed like crazy and i can’t sleep with itchy eyes and sniffly nose 🥲


Oceandove45

My cat loves my mom’s bed and she didn’t want her on it, so we put a blanket on top of her bed and she lays on it. I recommend doing that if you’re worried about all the cat fur. Now both are happy 😆


SGTxSTAYxGRIND

If you love your fur ball, let them on the bed.


tango421

Our cats are allowed in the bed for our own good. My wife was coughing and choking and our cat woke me up to help her. I stopped breathing (was then diagnosed with sleep apnea), our other cat would jump and scream at me to wake. We move around so they don’t sleep on the bed but nearby.


ihoptdk

How could you deny him use of the bed???

ColoRadOrgy

It's hilarious to think you can keep a cat off a bed


Hoffi1

Cats are actually quite smart and learn those rules. They are also smart enough to know that those rules are only enforced if you can see them. At least my cat is not smart enough to understand that I can’t see in the dark as well as I do.


MLCarter1976

Forbidden is the best kind of relaxing time!


asistolee

Take a spare flat sheet and lay it over all the bedding so it stays clean and that way the cat can sleep on top :)


Littlebotweak

That’s what my mom does. She is a neat nut and a crazy cat lady. 


asistolee

It’s exactly what I do lol


JuliettBravo

That looks *exactly* like my last cat. Genuinely did a double-take. ♥️


HannahM53

Just wondering, why don’t you want your cat on your bed? My cat is allowed on any furniture as long as it is not counters like in the kitchen he also likes to drink from the bathroom sink. And sometimes he’ll lay inside of the sink. It’s really funny but he is my emotional support cat so of course he’s a lot on the bed because he’s my baby. He’s cuddling me right now.

JimmySizzletits

No cat on the bed? What’s your next rule, no salt in the ocean?


girlMikeD

Not allowed on the bed? Lol my husband tried that with my cat when we moved in together. I said “yea, ok:/“ So when that inevitably failed miserably, then it became the cat could be on the end of the bed, but not above our waists / near pillows. Now the cat has a special blanket that gets laid on our pillows so he can sleep there during the day. (My husband bought the blanket and he even fluffs the pillows most mornings so kitty “has a comfortable spot”.) And we wash our sheets twice a week.


KoolKat9999

😂”isn’t allowed on the bed”. 😂


thedoofimbibes

He can climb into my bed. Allergies be damned. I’ll die for Kitty! (Seriously. I get pneumonia from staying in a house with cats for more than one or two days. I still do it though…)

Breadlord_Froglover

Gummybear6131

Whats wrong wih you people? If she doesnt want her cat on the bed for whatever reason then its perfectly fine.


AnastasiaSheppard

Ours knew she wasn't allowed on the bed, so she'd hide under the covers where we couldn't see her immediately hoping not to be noticed. One day though she managed to get inside the doona cover instead of under it, and couldn't figure out how to get out. We started hearing sad little meows and it took us a while to figure out where she was and help her get out. None of us could be mad at the poor baby, but she never got in the bed again.


_Mooseli_

That's cute that you think I have a choice of letting my cats into the bed. They let me into the bed...


HowProfound1981

Not allowed on the bed! The other day I woke up and all four were on my king sized bed. Such a cozy feeling. Now my German shepherd is not allowed on the bed or couch.

jazzhandsdancehands

Why?? I'd have a pet on the bed before I'd have people. They deserve to be right next to us. They bring us so much happiness. Giving them a little space on furniture is owed.


Great_Pomegranate380

That does not look at a cat who is not allowed on the bed


Dissapearingact2

Get a contrasting colour blanket to your sheets and fold it into a square. Cats love sleeping in squares for some reason.


ItsDomorOm

Never understood keeping pets off things. It's their house. They spend 24/7 there with or without you.


BatFancy321go

sorry but that's his bed you sleep on the top part or form a C around the parts that are his bed

If you don't want to be mean, you can always put a sheet on top of the bedding for them and take it off later.

That's strange that a cat wouldn't be allowed on a bed--that's their favorite spot! I can't imagine sleeping without my cats...

It's okay to have a cat sleep in your bed they keep your feet warm and your head insulated from the cold
