| They actually have their own separate crates and have been sleeping in their own crates when we were all sick . . .that was about 3 weeks ago. Whenever I am sewing, I put them on an expen right next to me and they play for a while and then get sleeping. I decided to bring down Tiger's crate, but just the bottom one so I can see them when sleeping. They seem to enjoy sleeping together as Annika always gets nappy before Tiger and I notice that Tiger eventually joins in. They are so adorably cute.
At night, the now sleep in the laundry room because of habit. Again, each on their own crate and separated (Annika inside the pen and Tiger out). over the weekend though I decided that maybe it is time that they be in the same place so I put Tiger's crate inside the pen. I noticed Tiger going in his and Annika joining him . . .it has been that way for 2 night now and seems to be working so great. In fact, Annika does not yap when I walk away after I turn off the lights as she is fine snuggling with Tiger in his crate. And in the morning, no more midnight poopies for her as well as it looks like she sleeps straight through the night without waking up. It used to be that by the time I get to the laundry room they are both waiting for me but these 2 days they are just stretching out when I get there.
Sleeping arrangement will be this way from now on. The furbabies will only sleep with me friday and saturday nights when I am off work. The new arrangement seem to suit them so well that I guess I will have to adjust, even if I miss then both with me. Tiger never sleeps straight at night and therefore is very disruptive. I did not care before because I only had him. Now with Annika, she snuggles in bed with me but Tiger just wants to play so I constantly have to get off bed but then Annika wakes up and am scared that she might fall off the bed as I go get Tiger . . . she just likes to me near me . . . |
