Sam has decided that his favourite place to sleep every night is between my knees. I always sleep on my back, and he starts out lying on my chest, purring, licking my face, sticking his furry face in my mouth, drooling on me, getting his head in the way of the television, kneading the blankets, and often licking the wool blankets. Its our special together time.
After he thinks I have settled down for the night, he looks around for a spot to curl up and go to sleep. Lately, that spot was between my feet, and now it seems that he likes it between my knees. And he is a big cat. I wake up in the morning stiff from lying on my back with a cat curled up between my legs.
So last night, I decided that I would lie really still, with my feet firmly together. Then, he could lie on my legs, or beside me, whatever. But I would be able to move a bit in the night without kicking a cat. And the devil; he stool on my shins, pawing and digging at my knees, trying to get into that nice comfy hole he is used to finding! I think that a 14 pound cat standing on your shins is probably more painful than stiff muscles from lying still on one position all night!
