Could be or maybe she is mellowing in the fourth year Just seems a bit weird to see Bernie with the upper hand as she has ruled him with an iron fist for so long

Re: A shift in power maybe?


Ok panick over. Eva has been very vocal this evening, I just picked her up for a cuddle and she almost had my face off
Next she decided she did want a cuddle after all and jumped up on her own, she has just jumped down and took chase after Bernie.
I hope he enjoyed sleeping on my pillow last night coz i dont think he'll get the chance to do it again for a loooooong time
Fancy being pleased at having the nasty side of the Diva back again

I think she just missed you, whenever I went away on hols, the cats alwas shifted sleeping habits......getting closer I was once told that your pillow smells of you more than any other part of the bed as your skin comes in contact and they are literally just "feeling" safe sleeping here they can smell you.................this sounds bad written down but sure you understand. It makes them nervous unsettled loosing contact with you. They are literally just reafirming your/their scent in their "gang/family"
Thats how I always looked at it.

Re: A shift in power maybe?


In our house, where Merlin sleeps is determined by how warm it is. If it's cold, Merlin is always with us - usually in the middle, like a chaperone! Although if he goes to bed at the same time as I do, he usually goes to sleep on top of me and I have to doze sitting up until he decides to move down the bed, then I can snuggle down.

If the house is warm, Merlin usually sleeps in the lounge on OH's chair. In fact, Merlin will evict OH from his chair when he (Merlin) thinks it is time for him (OH) to go to bed and for Merlin to curl up and go to sleep!!!

Smudge very rarely was allowed on my bed. It was Merlin's territory, the exception being if I was ill and then both cats would come and be nurse!!!

Re: A shift in power maybe?


See Bernie's place has always been at the foot of the bed, often humping my feet before settling down for a sleep
Anyway, I went to bed last night and found Bernie on the pillow again. He got off as I got into bed and Eva then jumped up to her rightful place on my chest for a cuddle. She then settled down beside me. Then a very sneaky Bernie walk up over my body and onto the pillow again
Eva didnt stir though as she would have normally chased him off.
