What body part does you cat sleep on?

Okay, for those of you who have nocturnal companions, what part of your anatomy does your kitty like to sleep on?

I've had several who would either like to be wrapped around your head or a meatloaf on your chest. Aya is a little perv and wants to sleep down in my crotch, really nestled in there (I did another post where I explained the reasons for her crotch obsession).

She also does the between the legs sphinx position facing me. When I'm on my side, (yeah rolling over is tricky with a crotch cat unless you want surprised claws to the groin), and then she sits behind my knees with her front paws and maybe head over the top.

Cats...

Since I'm a tummy sleeper, Sam is a rump/hip man. He'll perch up there and ride my bum as I roll over. Weird dude!

Tolly sleeps on my stomach when I'm reading on the couch, and curled in my arms in bed.

Mazy sleeps under my chin on the couch, and at the back of my neck in bed.

Jennie sleeps on my legs, on the couch, and against my legs in bed.

Fun thread!

Sterling wants your right arm. It's fine until he starts licking.

Domino sleeps on my head, Bobo sleps curled around my head and Little Miss sleeps eithe on my head or on my lower legs. Genna and Slinky dont like to sleep in the bed.

Harvey likes to wrap himself around my neck, and purr...very loudly, . Very sleep promoting .

Luke likes the crook of my legs or on top of my feet.

Danny doesn't sleep with us at night because Luke bullies him, but he loves to nap on my lap or around my shoulders while I'm sitting on the couch in the day.

Right on my bloody chest. She's not a small kitten anymore either. Likes to bat and/or bite at my nose while I sleep.

I haven't had an uninterrupted sleep at home in 3 years.

I don't know that I would have described it quite like that, but that's where Forest likes to sleep, too.

Tailer sleeps between us...front paws touching my back, rear ones touching DH's.

Cuddles and Prissy are the only two that are really "bed" kitties.

Prissy likes to sleep on me, anywhere on me, but I move too much for her so she usually steals a pillow and sleeps on that all night. When hubby is home, she usually steals his. She does seem to have a need to be near my head though. When I'm sleeping on the couch, she's perched on the back of the couch on whatever end my head is at. If I move, she moves.

Cuddles however really lives up to his name. When he gets in bed, he has to be curled up right under my chin, and heaven help me if I'm not petting him!
He's become very good at finding ways to make sure my attention is on Him. Once he actually falls asleep though I can slide him down to the crook of my arm or somewhere else. He's so trusting he just goes complelety out when he's sleeping on me and I can mold him into a pretzel and he wouldn't care.

Mira sleeps on my chest, or on my hip if I'm sleeping on my side; Kipper wraps around my head on the pillow (or on the other pillow if I sleep in after the fiance goes to work); my chihuahua puppy Milo sleeps in my crotch or nestled in against my tummy and thighs (as close as he can get to my crotch); and Missy has taken to sleeping at the foot of the bed, not on anyone's feet though. Callie isn't comfortable with sleeping with us yet, and the kittens are too little, but sometimes I take them out for playtime and fall asleep before I can put them back, and when that happens they curl up in my neck until Mira or the hubby-to-be puts them back in the pen.

They don't always sleep on me and some of them will come and go or just sometimes come to snuggle, but they do have preferences.
Blaze likes to lay on my chest with his head tucked under my chin. He also likes to put his front feet on my shoulders when in that position and knead and purr. Unfortunately sometimes he also drools.
Spot prefers to be on or above/behind my head on the pillow. I started sleeping with two pillows so I can have one behind my head for him to sleep on and one for my head. Even if I am not in bed Spot likes to be above/behind my head, for example if I'm sitting on the couch he will jump up and lay on the back of the couch behind my head.
Harley likes to be next to me or once in a while she'll lay on the pillow. Blaze also sometimes will lay on my pillow if there is room!
Mr. Grey likes to lay next to me or on my arm.
Church is usually not in the room at night but when he is he prefers to lay on my chest. If I'm on my stomach sometimes he will lay on my back.

Jamie prefers my left side, and stretches out from my hip to my shoulder/neck. He'll sleep on my right side, but complains.

Smudge doesn't like the bed. I think he's so large and boneless he needs more support that a waterbed can give him.

Tigger doesn't sleep. Seriously. Well, at least during the night. She perches on my waterbed rail and watches for me to awaken so she can remind me she needs to be fed at 3:30.

Nadette will "visit" my chest if I am reading, but one deep breath or twitch and she's outta there.

Clyde prefers his laundry basket.

Elsa sleeps on my feet. She's my only kitty that will sleep with me.

Crumbs likes to sleep on my neck, as close to my face as possible. I don't like waking up with a mouthful of fur, though, so we compromise and she sleeps on my legs instead.

Niko won't sleep on the bed anymore, since I tend to move around and accidentally kick her in my sleep.

Dusty sleeps on my right elbow when I tuck my arm under the pillow.

Squeak sleeps against my back.

Dharma, my non-lap kitty, will sometimes sleep near my feet, or near my head, but never touching or on me. I'm normally a side sleeper - Dante like to be touching, either rump to rump, on my feet, curled up behind my knees or directly in front of my tummy, and will often start the night perched on top of me, rear directly toward my head. Unless, of course, it's too warm for him - then he sprawls out all over the bed, including making sure his tail takes up as much space as possible, and giving me maybe four inches to rest in.

I am a side sleeper.

Topaz will lay near my head or up against my chest. I have to make sure I leave enough room for her majesty. Ari rarely sleeps with me (because Topaz bullied him, IMO) but has curled up on my side.

Years ago, when we had a lot more kitties, I once woke up (to the sound of my Mom laughing) with all of them perched on my side from ankle to ribs, with my soul kitty curled up against my chest. They were all there because it was way past breakfast time. I was ill and had already told the kitty by my chest that I would feed them when I was dang good and ready. (Mom's arthritis made it difficult for her to open the cat food cans or she would have fed them earlier.)

This is a great thread. I love this thread!!!!

When Ku Ku sleeps with me, she'd sleep either on my side facing my armpit or curling up right next to my stomach.

As soon as I'm in bed, she'd sphinx across my stomach and purrrrr. I'd have to pet her while saying "meowmy's going to sleep, good night, good night..." until I fall into sleep. I think she walks away as soon as I fall into sleep...I guess she tries to "meowmy-sit"?
