Welcome back!

No, this is not of a questionable nature.

When my husband and I sleep we find ourselves four beings in a two person bed. Our pets have decided to keep us company. I took a picture with our phone of my husband napping. He is ‘occupied territory’. There are two fur persons who are also sleeping. When we nap, we find that we have to move furry people before we can roll over.

This has gone on for so long that if my husband wants to nap, he expects to have at least one cat if not two with him to keep him company. One of our cats will even ‘tell’ him when it is time to nap by climbing onto his lap and yawning widely. Since he has heart trouble, we don’t mind the bossy cat demanding the nap. She has also been known to wake him up if he has trouble with his blood sugar dropping too low. He also has diabetes. This alone has saved him hospital visits. If a Diabetic’s blood sugar drops too low, severe medical trouble can occur, so it is important to monitor the levels each day. The American Diabetic Association has important guidelines for monitoring blood sugar levels.

Some people might not understand how close pets can get to their family. I am glad that ours seem to care a lot for us both. The attention they show is greatly appreciated.
