This is why the simple answer, which would be to close the bedroom door to them, wasn't in consideration. :-)Cranberry Morninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10758563068581561194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-75395694171489475112012-01-13T21:00:02.507-06:002012-01-13T21:00:02.507-06:00Lionel is such a beautiful cat.

Since the rollout of the new feature on the 11th, I haven't even been able to access my blog! So I couldn't post today. And I don't even think anyone can comment on an older post, I'm not sure.

Last night was MUCH better, and now I feel really stupid for thinking that I could cover one of Lionel's favorite resting places with pots of herbs! Lionel still spent a lot of the night on my pillow, but he also spent time snuggled up on the polar fleece blanket on the window seat, now that the herbs have been moved from it. I had a great night's sleep! :-) It's amazing what better sleep I get when the cat is not licking my forehead!Cranberry Morninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10758563068581561194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-90415925485193984962012-01-12T10:14:11.318-06:002012-01-12T10:14:11.318-06:00He loves you, and it sounds like you love him, eve...He loves you, and it sounds like you love him, even if he is disrupting your sleep.

And still, I'm going to reject Sam's offer to take Lionel, even for a few nights. ;-) I did get a nap on the couch this evening and now I'll go to bed and see how the night goes. There is one more factor I hadn't considered, so I hope my remedy there helps the situation: At the end of summer I had brought in all my herbs and placed them on the window seat in our bedroom. Lionel had loved lying there and now it's all covered with plants. I took most of the plants off today and put a comfy polar fleece blanket on the window seat. I'm hoping that it's irresistible to Lionel! :-)Cranberry Morninghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10758563068581561194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-7030354053159778282012-01-11T20:21:01.963-06:002012-01-11T20:21:01.963-06:00Your Lionel and our Ginger must be cut from the sa...Your Lionel and our Ginger must be cut from the same cloth!

I finally just pushed him off and that was hint enough so that he settled down beside my head and slept. He's very clingy this year - that is something considering that he is a ferrel kitten that I adopted when he fell in my window well 16 years ago.Ruth Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15649059834123681889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-89181411881900705432012-01-11T19:19:54.510-06:002012-01-11T19:19:54.510-06:00Hi Judy,

Had to have my sleep. We brushed them, clipped nails and gave extra treats on the weekends. They were also out of their creates to play with cat toys all day. When I was at home and not asleep they played outside of their create. If you cannot work it out with him give this a try.Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07287238810628574373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-50189372510204728692012-01-11T14:29:46.803-06:002012-01-11T14:29:46.803-06:00Lionel is so cute, I wouldn't have the heart t...Lionel is so cute, I wouldn't have the heart to keep him out of the bedroom either.
