My wife sleeps on one side with about a million pillows, and the cat sleeps in the middle. Over the course of the night, she slowly seeps further and further into my side, and if I get up to pee or anything she is in my spot when I get back. This is my life now.

The only solution I have found for this is to get a bigger bed. And if that doesn't work, keep getting the next bigger size until you have the biggest one

my ultimate goal is a 7 ft emperor bed but sadly I have run out of room already

A bedroom should just be completely made of bed. It's in the name.

I have had very very small bedrooms where the bed take >80% of the space. It's really hard to change the sheets and such. :( but cozy once its set up.

True, but the cat will keep stealing the goddamn lasagna!

You've inspired me to make a cat lasagna recipe. Keeping the salt down will be the biggest challenge but I'm thinking seaweed noodles, fishies and non brained olives (garlic and stuff that is in olive brine is real bad for cats but ilvues themselves contain the same psychoactive compound as catnip) and boiled fishes.

Oh wow, I had no idea cats could eat seaweed! I know they're obligate carnivores, but I guess seaweed is different from other plants?

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

It's the thing I'm not totally sure about, mostly in the amount. Cats will chomp grass when controversially outdoors and stuff, it's also salty af and it being from the ocean makes that most likely impossible to prevent. Carnivores do tend to chomp a minor amount of plant in the wild, a lot of herbivores also will totally snack on another animal if it's like super convenient. Deer and stuff will eat injured birds and squirrels snatch baby birds from nests.

I learned this as a result of some frantic googling after seeing a deer run across the road in front of me with bloody flesh dangling from its mouth. If my husband hadn't seen it too, idk that I would really believe it happened. Like a dog running around with a plushy, except a deer and the plushy is red tatters.

I used to grow wheatgrass for my most indoor (his choice: lazy) cat. Loved it.

Remember when people were trying to drink wheat grass. Bleh. Better for the cat.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

I've got a lil plant of that for my kitty to chomp

[–] Pluto@hexbear.net 2 points 2 years ago

They'll love that last part especially.
