I got back into bed and looked/felt under the covers but he was not there... so in my 1/2 sleepiness, I thought he went under the bed. I went to pull the covers back up and they were stuck. I yanked them and heard a groan. I threw them back and reached down the foot of the bed under the covers where the sheet was tucked into the mattress and Fletcher was stuck down there! LOL

Poor boy, he was totally stuck and could not get out. Funny thing is he didn't make any noise, even when I was calling his name.

Awwww..... That made me Laugh Out Loud!! Sounds like something that
would happen to Riley!! Glad he got out okay.

Yeah I remember! . If I try to keep them out I'd have to crate them. Hey are adamant about sleeping there!

This crossed my mind, too!

Personally, this is why Tatiana does not sleep with us. She's small (3 lbs), and we have a large Cal King size bed with king size comforters and blankets. I was worried she may get trapped under the large, heavy comforters, and I wouldn't know in my sleep.

She sleeps in a exercise pen by my bedside. She's close-by. All I have to do is reach down (while lying in bed) to pet her.

It happened again this morning! I found him dangling in the sheets right above the floor! LOL Poor guy. I think he likes it though. I went to get him out and he looked up like at me like "why did you wake me up????" LOL
