I am the same as you, if my babies are not there, i cannot sleep, i use to let my Ali sleep with me too, that was hard work, cause he was far to big to go to bed.....i feel safe with my Yorkies at my side...they are so alert...the smallest noise they let me know....My 2 Persians sometimes come on the bed too.....I wonderd why i have been single for so long
I love my babies so much....i have to have them next to me
