Get a Cat to Sleep With You

Do you ever want to sleep with or cuddle up to your feline pal but they're too distracted or disinterested? While you can't make a cat do anything, you might be able to encourage them to at least think about it!

Steps

 * 1) Gently pick your cat up and cradle them in your arms. Pet them softly.[[Image:Get a Cat to Sleep With You Step 1.jpg|center]]
 * 2) Slowly rock back and forth while humming softly.[[Image:Get a Cat to Sleep With You Step 2.jpg|center]]
 * 3) Continue rocking until your cat's pupils are small and their eyes are beginning to shut.[[Image:Get a Cat to Sleep With You Step 3.jpg|center]]
 * 4) Slowly put the cat into place. It helps if you're already in your sleeping position as getting into bed or lying on the couch will cause movement that may awaken them easily. Otherwise, wait for your cat to look drowsy and once your cat is almost asleep slowly get into your position.[[Image:Get a Cat to Sleep With You Step 4.jpg|center]]
 * 5) *Don't be surprised if they wake up and jump off. Cats don't enjoy disturbance and many don't want to be forced to do anything they haven't decided to do![[Image:Get a Cat to Sleep With You Step 4Bullet1.jpg|center]]
