In the winter Thumper sleeps behind mommy's computer, where the fan blows warm air.
 
Adventures with Thumper...

So, our bed has a headboard with a shelf, reading lights and a couple of small cabinets for putting stuff like the TV clicker, glasses. The mattress is on a platform with drawers under, sort of a captain's bed. There's an open space between the sets of drawers and under the headboard. It's Thumpers secret nest to hide in case of "stranger danger." (When the doorbell at the gate rings she runs for her BOL and hides till the all clear.)

Sometimes I sleep on my side with one hand under the pillow and my fingers at the head of the bed. Usually the mattress is snug against the headboard, but I guess it slid out about an inch or so. This morning when the "Thumper alarm" went off and I didn't want to get up at 4:30 to stir her food, I heard her messing around under us, in her nest. Then YEEOWWW!!!

She grabbed my fingers with her claws! She let go when I screamed, luckily she didn't actually scratch me. But now we have a new game, or at least she does. I'm not sure how enthused I am about it though. LOL

We have the "Tiger" alarm!! Tiger goes after the dog's tail, a cat and dog wrestling match then takes place, humans are awake, Pearl gets up and feeds animals! If it's like 3am they just get treats (you know, to reinforce the bad behavior) and Bear and I go outside so he can pee! No animals get breakfast before 5 am, I aim at 5:30!

Yeah, I created a monster with the catnip treats in the bedroom. Now at 9 pm she is sitting on the bed waiting. Which reminds me I need to hit our dealer, I mean the Dollar store, I'm terrified of what happens if we run out. ;)
