In the kitchen
Good morning!

My question today is easy:

What size bed do you have?

We have a queen bed and with seven cats, there hardly seems to be room for us sometimes. It's not too bad if they're all curled up, but when they start stretching out, it gets cramped.

And they won't move at all. BooBoo likes to stretch out at the crook of Rick's knees and if Rick dares to move, Boo will actually hiss at him!

We have a king (waterbed), so there's lots of room for both of us and Jamie. Jamie prefers to sleep right on top of me anyway, and he's heavy!

We have a queen but even with only two cats many nights it doesn't feel like enough! Although both of ours really like to stretch out, and rather than get hissed at if we move, we get attacked....

Queen. Between the three that sleep in bed with us, plus Franklin when hes allowed in bed it gets seriously cramped...and HOT! Like living inside a volcano hot!

We have a queen size bed. Rob wanted a King or California King, but I told him he couldn't escape from me forever
And I didn't want it making the bedroom look/feel smaller. It can get a little bit crowded when the 3 kitties come join though.

Queen as well. My parents were upgrading their bed, so I took their queen bed. Better, now that Monet can stretch out without digging his claws into me for me to move!

It's a waterbed we've had for a long time (replace the mattress three times, I think, now), and it's a California king size. Plenty of room for kitties, as long as their claws are dull!

We have a queen sized loft bed, only the two younger cats can jump up to it.

Queen! And it's just DH and I in there. I wish we had a king sometimes; but I like having the space to move around in our bedroom. We started with a full size bed when we got married. DH is 6'2"....he hated it! LOL!

Our last house would only hold a queen. As it was I couldn't really open my dresser drawers properly.

Maybe someday we will upgrade; but our bed is really comfy and we have several sets of really nice sheets. We did for our full size bed too and it was sad at first to give up the good sheets!!

King. We had two twins side by side because thats what we could do afford, decided to upgrade and thought queen would be ok-but all night I wanted to kick him out so I could semi roll over. Returned that to walmart(was online to door purchase) That was a funny scene!

VERY happy with our bed now-plenty of room to snuggle/freedom to sleep how I have slept for past 29 years

We have a queen size. Bedroom isn't big enough for a larger bed (well maybe, but it would really be tight) --- most of the time one or both of us is hanging over the side because we don't want to disturb whichever cat is sleeping with us -- and several times we've both come close to falling out of the bed!

I was beginning to think we were the only ones with a full size bed

It's an antique, golden oak bed with a 5' headboard, a 3' footboard, and side rails that I found years ago. I love it.

We have a queen size bed. We used to have a double and that was squishy. Someday we will have a king size. A queen is too small with 2 dogs sleeping on it too.

We have a King. DH and I are both bed hogs, so we can't really sleep in anything smaller. A Queen is REALLY tight. If we have to stay at a hotel that only has double beds, we have to get a room with two beds and we sleep separately.
