Pixie slept in a crate right next to my bed until she was 6 months. I started taking a few naps with her when I was sick and that was the end of the crate. I don't mind bc Daisy sleeps with us as well. The more the merrier!!! lol
I do put Pixie in the middle of the bed near my head, and I am a light sleeper so I check her throughout the night and cover her if she seems to be cold. she always wakes me if she has to pee by licking my face

even though she has stairs for the bed and could go pee by herself on her pad. She feels the need to have company when she pees, maybe she is afraid of the boogie man!!! lol
