What do you guys think of your pets sleeping in the bed with you? 

Personally I let all my pets join me, they're pretty sweet about it and at the end of the day, i want them there too. Just take care to wipe those dirty paws.

outside

I always put my cat outside my room at night. I'm a very light sleeper and he likes to climb at night, knocking things off the dresser and shelves, and giving me heart attacks. So we have a system, when he sees me turn off the computer, he knows its bed time and we go to the kitchen where I bribe him with treats so he will let me sleep and not scratch at my door at night :) It works 95% of the time.

I used to let my dogs sleep with me, then my shih tzu got too territorial and I put an end to it. Now they each have their own beds.

It was all fun until...

We had no problems with the dog sleeping on the bed until he shoved me off of it. The day I grumbled at him a about it the dog decided he didn’t like that I grumbled at him. He found a way out of his day kennel and then literally dug a hole in my mattress while we were at work. Now not that I haven’t been wanting a new mattress and this made it convenient to convince the other half to get one but now he’s not allowed on the bed anymore and the door is kept closed.

My plan when we got our dog was to have him sleep in a dog bed on the floor, but he did not like that and I just let him join us in bed. He's so good he sleeps on a blanket at the end of the bed and I enjoy him there.

I have 3 dogs and 2 cats and they are always in bed with me. Why not? They're clean and I love having them with me.

We do it

My boyfriend and I rent our apartment, and have two cats. Both cats have the choice of whether or not they want to sleep with us, as we leave the door open. They typically do, coming and going as they please.

If they are getting into things they shouldn't or causing a lot of noise, then we will put them outside our room and close the door.

I personally don't see an issue with it, but I know not everyone's opinion is the same.

Dogs in bed

I think if you wipe them down or bath them regularly, there are no concerns about your pet sleeping with you. Studies have shown people who allow their dog or cat on the bed or sofa are healthier. One of mine climbs under the duvet while the older one sleeps on top of the duvet. They have their own baskets\beds but will generally sleep where their people are.
