No, I'm not nervous or anything, although there's plenty going on to be concerned about. So mom and dad have a Queen-sized bed, which offers plenty of snoozing room for me. Say, why do they call it that, anyway? Dad often refers to mom as Princess. He sometimes calls me the Queen Bee. He dressed partially in drag the first time he saw Rocky Horror Picture Show in 1978. He's been a Queen fan since way before cell phones, the internet, and amazon.com. Wait, where was I? Oh yeah, so they sleep in a Queen bed, and although I've gotten somewhat used to hanging with them in my not-too-cuddly way, my place is generally at the foot of the bed. I will say that it's usually on mom's side, since she typically keeps her feet covered by a massaging heated pad under the blankets. Hey, I'm no dummy. So anyway, with all that open space around them, one would think an ordinary cat would take advantage and sprawl out leisurely. They say I'm not ordinary, so I'm going with that for an explanation for these pictures dad took one recent morning.
I've heard them say that Cleopatra was a little more cuddly. They've often talked about how much of a snuggler old Orbit was. At my age, I don't think I'll ever be much for cuddling.
You know- old dog/new trick and all. Whatever. We're all different, right? I know they love me for who I am, and I'm still learning the same about them.

Smudge I know exactly how you feel about not being the snuggliest kitty in the household. I do not sleep with my humans. But I do make Lynn give me a leg time every evening for three solid hours while I Zonk. I think you look really good just as long as you don't forget when you're sleeping and roll off the bed. I haven't done anything like that yet but I'm sure it could happen to us kitties.
You are pretty "edgy", Smudge! Our Queen Tama was not cuddly at all when she was young but that changed dramatically as she became more mature.
Purrs,

Great photos, it does look comfy. Some of my cats are edgy and some like to sleep in the middle of the bed! I do like a cuddly cat :-D
You're your own kitty and like living on the edge!
You really do live life on the edge, Smudge! Eric used to sleep across the top of my head, but Flynn slept between us sprawled right out. Me and Ivor had the same position as you on either side of the bed hoping we didn't fall out.
You are expanding your territory, Smudge!
Next step; push 'em off so you get the entire queen-sized bed to yourself.
i only sleep wif dee mum win it izza cold, during dee summers and starting lately, i sleep on dee back ovva dee sofa
You are gorgeous, Smudge.
I agree 100%. :D
Deciding where to sleep can be a big decision.
I'm not much of a snuggler either, Smudge. But I do like to lie either right next to the Lady or by her feet. She's good with that. ~Murphy
I have never seen Rocky Horror Picture Show. I need to someday. And your parents love you just as you are so sleep wherever you want. XO
You just keep being you sweet Smudge, that's purrfection!
Just don't fall off the edge!
if snuggles aren’t your thing, so be it. It takes all kinds to make a world.
We sleep in a Queen bed, too. Most of our kitties sprawl in the middle, but Tara sleeps on the side like you do.

Hi Smudge and thank you and Dad for the good dental wishes
Each of our pets have brought such quirky and fun and loving
traits...I say being you and no one else is the best way to be
Hugs Cecilia
Charlee: "Don't worry, Smudge, your Mom and Dad love you just for who you are! I never snuggle in bed with Mama and Dada either and I am still Dada's perfect little princess. Just ask him, he'll tell you!"
Java Bean: "Ayyy, just as well, I like to get in between Mama and Dada in bed at night and I don't really want a cat sharing space with me there."
Oona: "Bean has no idea that Oona sneaks under the covers on the other side next to Mama every night. She will never tell him."
Wherever you want to sleep on the queen-sized bed is purrfect, Smudge. For what it's worth, we think you look very comfortable!
