My favorite people are the ones who sacrifice their comfort so their pets sleep soundly. For example, I have no feeling in my left arm but Mo is snoring. Dreaming of her younger days of chaotic, psychotic, glorious play.

Shortly after this loon joined the family, he literally kicked me in the eye while sleeping, scratching my cornea. Spent much of a Saturday at urgent care.
You are one of my favorite people for that. Mine will occasionally share the bed with me but they like their space so they'll sleep anywhere I can't reach them for pets and cuddles lol
I wake up several times a night to put the blanket back over Billy, a.k.a. Prince William Anubis - happy to do this for my best boy!
Dogs are “the cat’s meow”. 🙂
If my hellhounds fall asleep in my lap I will not move for decades until they wake up. However I do have demons that will do my bidding so my job is secure.
I used to have a Malemute (easily 100 pounds plus), very aggressive who liked to sleep with his throat across my throat. At first I thought it was sweet until I realized his growling and barred teeth increased with the intensity of his dreams. Decided it was a bad idea & moved him to my side.
I spent 30 minutes yesterday writhing in pee agony so Jasmine could get the scritches she was asking for. The dogs rarely let her in my lap for that long, so it was extra special.
🥰🐾 thanks. He's an Alaskan Malamute. The 2 breeds, which are cousins, look so much alike. I rescued Quincy from an abusive situation when he was just 8 weeks. They didn't take care of him at all. In reality, he rescued me. He's 10 1/2 now.
Gomez is large and weighs 18 pounds, so when I'm in bed and he is stretched out across my feet it's like a fur-lined cinder block is crushing my ankles. I will complain as I'm limping later, but I certainly won't move him.
Related, every night when I sit down next to my wife to watch TV my dog stares at me until I lie on the floor to watch him chew his bone. It's coercion but I do it anyway
Every night my terrier pushes her feet into my stomach. I have to gently push her feet into my legs instead. 💛 And if either dog are upset she or the hound sleep on my head. 💛💛
My 50 pound Dal must be covered! If she gets up in the night and returns to bed, she pokes me with her snoot until I lift the top blanked so she can scoot back under.

I'm a favorite person.
Your cats would not hesite to use your corpse for substance. It’s the perfect relationship.
