Do you allow your pets on your bed?

Many people have pets and most of the time I find that most animal owners allow their pets on the bed and others tend to have a strict rule that the pet they have should not be on the bed.

When I had my cat, she was always allowed on the bed as I knew she felt safe there are that is where she wanted to be.

Are you someone who allows your pets on your bed or do you not allow it at all?
 
We don't really let our parrots wander around the bed due to them shitting on it. Birds just go where ever. Instead we keep them out for short intervals and put them back so they can eat, drink, and crap.
 
Not at all.
Never with the dogs.
I used to with cats; but I've developed a 'bad attitude' about cat hair on the bed, especially the pillow. So, with the "current" cats, whenever a paw would touch the bed or I'd catch one on the bed I'd shoosh the cat off. After a few weeks of that and they miraculously have responded. :)
 
When we had our cat, Benjamin, he'd often sleep on missus bat's pillow.
 
Yeah our pet cat (Toby) tends to wander around, h e likes to lay on the side of the bed and then knock stuff off the side table xD
 
Our dog is way too old now and has arthritis, but in the past we let our dogs and cat on our beds.
 
Yes I do, my cat loves laying in bed with my spouse and I. He will often lay by our feet though, but sometimes we accidentally kick him. He doesn't seem to mind too much though, lol.
 
Hell yes. It feels wrong without my kitties either sleeping on top of me or on my pillows.
 
Hell yes.
One of the best parts of having pets is the cuddles. :D
 
No, no, never and the dogs weren't even allowed upstairs in the bedrooms.
They had their own beds downstairs and I've never believed animals should be allowed in your bed

Old Chinese proverb:
"He who lies down with dogs
Gets up with fleas."
:D
 
I have cats, they allow themselves...

This is true. Cats will do what they want. I'm surprised these owners of this cat haven't realized that.

 
Yes i don't mind, i sleep at the couch most times, and you walk on my room and see my cat there sleeping :sleep:
 
Yep I share my bed with the wife and two very big dogs.

There is a down side though... They will come and paw at me to get under the cover... then 5 minutes later shoot out from the cover cause they heard something. They will then investigate and come back.. Guess what they do then... HEY I WANT UNDER THE COVER AGAIN. lmao
 
Right now we don't let Barb in our bed but that's because we have to close our door as there is a window near the outside of our bedroom and the light shines right into our room if we don't close our door. We are going to be getting a curtain so that we can keep our door open. Once we can keep our door open we will let Barb sleep with us again. It's just annoying when the cat wants in and out multiple times during the night so right now it's easier if she just doesn't sleep in the room. Though once we get that curtain put up she will definitely be sleeping in our bed again. I miss the kitty cuddles I won't lie lol
 
Cat's on my bed right now lol.
