A True Pillow Fight.

Pillow

So this weekend, Chris posted an entry that had a picture of his cat sleeping on his head. I made a comment Monday that my cat had done that for the FIRST TIME the night before. IT was soooo funny. The cat - you know - sleeping on my head. So funny and cute. But now? The cat - “Bambi” has staged a mutiny with my head and I am no longer allowed sole ownership rights to my pillow. MY PILLOW. This is a pillow that I traded with LilZoot because I didn’t like the new big fluffy pillows that go with our new big sheet/comforter set. I like old flat ones. So LilZ and I traded. So Bambi, does not want that nice fluffy pillow either. He wants MINE with the SK8TR boy pillowcase on it. For the past three nights, I’ve started out sleeping on my pillow, but woken up with Bambi on it, and me with NO pillow and a pained neck-region. So, what does a stern dictator do when his/her land is taken over by the village idiots? I give it to them of course. I put the pillow inside the cat bed and took another old flat one of the guest bed. We’ll see what Bambi does now…BHAHAHA.

(Any bets on him taking the guest bed pillow away from me now and ignoring the one I put in his bed?)

    Good Lord, have I not commented on yer blog yet, Zoot?

    I sat sat a kitty last year who has now gone up to kitty heaven. She loved sleeping on my chest, my head, my arm, etc., but I was able to coax her into sleeping right beside my head by putting a pillow right there. She loved it and I didn’t wake at 3 am with no feeling in my arms.

    She did however yowl to go outside every morning even though she had a littler box. That Marble. Cute & demanding as hell. I miss her.

    D’OH! It should be CAT SAAT, not SAT SAT! Oooops.

    Cat Sat.

    And the Littler box? Pretend I meant to say that.

  5. Chris Says:

    I’m going to guess that its not so much the quality of the pillow but the fact that you’re currently using it which is the driving factor here. So my bet? You end up pillowless at night again sometime soon.

    I’m gonna go with pillowless too. Very lucky in the pillow deptartment, neither of the cats I live with now are pillow stealers.

    Knowing that cat my vote is with
    pillowless also………….and
    if you don’t give it to her she’ll do that mountain lion immitation growl and you’ll just give it to her…..Yep

  8. scorpy Says:

    You’ll be pillowless, as well.
    My husband works nights, so it’s just me and the dogs in bed at night, and though his pillows are very available, they prefer to push me off mine. He says the same thing happens to him while he sleeps during the day.
    Animals! Almost as contrary as men, aren’t they? (No offense, guys.)

    You kill me. I love that you would give your pillow to your cat. I would totally do that.

  10. Ro Says:

    Well… if everyone here is right and you find yourself sleeping pillowless again you could always get up and go sleep in the cat bed… you’ll have your pillow back that way. lmao.

  11. Beth Says:

    Um. Cat? Gave it the pillow? I must just not be an animal person…I don’t even let my SON use my pillow.

  12. Beth Says:

    Maybe it’s just that my pillow? Is THAT snuggly.

  13. Sweety Says:

    pillowless!!!!

  14. Michelle Says:

    Yeah, you’re not getting the pillow back.

  15. Michelle Says:

    Of course, it ain’t living until Bambi starts GROOMING YOUR HEAD. You know, because hair products are tasty and shit.

    NEVER try to win a war w/ a cat…you’ll always end up the big loser!

    A long while back I slept over at my sister’s house. She has this meatball of a Himalyan for a cat. Every early morning the damn think would mistake me for my sister and WALK ON MY HEAD. It was all I could do from tossing it out the widow.

    Aww I love those little balls of fur though ;)

    that’s why I crate the puppy at night…I don’t share!

    I’d say you can pretty much guarantee that he’ll ignore the pillow in his bed and take yours. It’s not about the pillow. It’s about having your pillow.
