Where Cats Sleep – Pet tip 250
One of the decisions that you’ll have to make when you get a new cat or kitten is where will it sleep? If you want your new kitten to sleep with you in your own bed then it should be no problem at all. Most kittens love sleeping with their owners and they will often press their bodies into yours for that warm cuddly feeling. If you’ve adopted an adult cat, it may take a little longer before the cat becomes comfortable enough to sleep in your bed. It may choose to sleep in another area of your bedroom, or it may choose to sleep in another room altogether. The trick is simple patience. If you are a kind and loving pet owner and interact and pet your cat, then eventually the cat will come around and likely jump on your bed to sleep when you least expect it.
If you don’t want your cat to sleep in your bed because of shedding, restlessness or other issues, then you have a few choices.

"... In Thailand the Korat is seen as being a good luck cat, because it has the colour of rainclouds, silver sheen as money, and eyes the colour of newly sprung rice - everything points towards wealth. This is the cat with five hearts, three of which are on the head. Looking at the Korat straight-on, you see the Valentine-shaped heart of the head, which can be gently traced around the head. The second heart is found by looking down over the top of the Korat's head, and the third heart is the nose. The other two hearts, which are not part of the head, are the muscular area of the chest when the cat is sitting, and the most-commonly-forgotten one, the heart inside the cat! In an old poem it is said that the Korat has body colour as the seeds of the sawat fruit, the fur is smooth with roots like clouds and tips like silver. The eyes shine like dewdrops on a lotus leaf. Things can't be described more poetically!"
Maverick is a lively and extroverted cat who demands close contact with us. He has a great degree of self-confidence and expects us to adapt our habits to his needs and ideas... Maverick follows us in EVERYTHING that we do - a cat that sleeps with us and thoroughly enjoys a good bubble bath! He loves and has a special sense of being around people - and enjoys participating in all chores. He loves to play - either with itself or a toy - but the best games are played in company with humans.
