I had a small playpen next to my bed when Gizmo was little. I could reach over and pet him and comfort him during the night and he knew we were there, but he wasn't in bed with us. Maybe a compromise like that might help? I know of others who do the same thing except using a crate set on the end table.
They are stubborn little things, aren't they?
