Should you let your pet sleep in your bed with you? Considering that 66% of US households and 53% of UK adults own a pet, it's probably a question that you've asked yourself, and it can be quite a divisive issue. Some people are quite firmly of the opinion that pets stay off the bed at all times. At a guess, I'd say those people aren't cat owners, because cats will sleep wherever they want and there's nothing you can do about it.
Me, I'm generally good with sharing a bed with a pet – within reason, of course, by which I mean as long as they stay on top of the covers. Pets under the duvet is an absolute red line for me. Most nights, my partner and I are joined by one of our cats, and it's mostly fine, even if it means that I often find myself shoved a little too close to the edge of the bed for comfort.
