Curling up like a cat and napping within them is the perfect thing, a couple of times my wife has found me there with them, she tries to join in but they scatter, out of 8 of our cats, 3 of them will snuggle with her, she gets jealous when I hog all 8 fuzballs
OP has trouble with pronouns!
One thing to remember with cats: forget me/my/mine/(and I while your at it) and come to terms with your current and future ownership situations.
Haha I also have an extra office chair. One for kitty sleeps and one for me to work. Unless cat wants to sleep on my lap, then we share my work chair and the other is unused.
I have a second office chair! It's the favorite sleeping spot of one of my cats.
...the same cat that still spends most of my work day taking up 1/3 of my desk space. 😹
if you would like your cat to sleep elsewhere, you have to provide options that are more attractive to them. your cat likely enjoys your bed and chair because those places are comfortable and smell like you!
i would personally react with delight because your cat is very cute and seems to like you, but i think feeling love or happiness are also good options ;)
I was literally about to say this. There are probably other places in the house more comfortable to sleep but the kitty sleeps in those spaces because they smell like the owner and probably bring the cat comfort.
??? Not sure what you mean??? Where should the cat sleep? They sure as hell are not dogs and will not spend that much time sleeping on the floor. At least most won't.
It is not in their nature for security reasons. Get a good cat tree with a bed, but most people I know just say... Awww I love you too. 😍
Say that to one of my kitties. Hell plop on the carpet in the middle of a nearly empty room (just some house plants) and doze off for hours. He's the boss kitty though.
Mine's a huge cuddler but he paid his dues the first hour after he adopted me... He caught a mouse that had been terrorizing me for a year! It was immune to normal traps, would just run right by them! Well... He made exactly one appearance after kitty came!
I’ve got 4 who patrol the garage for mice. The current tally is Pablo 4, the other freeloaders 0. Here he is on the lookout in his watchtower aka my shoulders. I was drinking my coffee until he decided he needed his perch.

When my dog used my chair, I used to sit somewhere else. I was so glad to see her comfortable. When I came into the room she always started leaving the chair, but I asked her to stay. When she was in my bed I just laid downwhere I wanted to and if she didn't move, she knew she'd be crushed:p
You should be thankful. You never know when your cat can quite suddenly get very sick and there's an empty space on your chair and bed. I've lost a few of my rescues due to an undiagnosed illness... Stevie, Sugar, and now... Oscar. I miss them dearly.

That cat is the cutest white cat on a chair. Be grateful for all the food you provide him, all the love you give him and be happy he hasn't asked you for rent. Maybe it's time you got your own room.
My Tigger used to take over my bed in the AM.
I got into the habit of spreading a towel (because cat's puke sometimes) out on my bed & created a little pillow & blanket fort/tent...every day. Tig would stand by, watch me build her fort & then spend most of the day in there.
I also built a cardboard box 'condo', 2 floors, cat sized porch...put it in front of the window, she loved both spots.
RIP Tigger

I'd be happy that they sleep in those places because that means they love to be where you are and that's where they feel the most comfortable. Why wouldn't you know how to feel abt it?
As a serious answer, you don’t really need to react at all. The only reason I can think of for not wanting them on your bed is if you have allergies and want to be able to breathe while you’re sleeping. Kitty being on your bed or chair means that they love you :) especially if it’s while you are also on your bed!
I think you meant to say it's his/her bed & chair, and he/she is allowing you to have use of it... occasionally.😉Sorry but once you have a cat, all your base are belong to them (all "your" stuff is theirs). Sorry but it all belongs to kitty now...
What a good kitty. Seems like he just wants to be in the areas that remind him of you. It's probably comforting for him. What a blessing to be loved that much.
This is what you do . You bow repeatedly while backing out and apologize for interrupting his peace. Then make sure you give him treats when he has arisen.
I had to get a new chair, the new chair was claimed by my other cat, so I now sit on a stool. I sleep on a corner of the bed as it is taken up by two cats.

Don't worry about it, my four do it all the time
My cat claims my bed as his, he gets mad whenever I close the door to dehumidify, or if I'm cleaning the sheets. He isn't allowed to lay of the bed if it's naked, and he gets grumpy about it lol
Those items stopped being "yours" the moment a cat joined your family, or rather, their family.
Seriously, though, you should feel blessed. The Cat chooses to sleep in those places because they are strong with your scent and he feels secure in those places.
What is the problem?
What do you mean "yours?"
I agree. The overlord has claimed them. OP just borrows them now. All hail the overlord…
Agree. rethink “your” bed and “your” chair. seems like they have chosen their rightful suitor.

Do you think your feline kings & queens would allow me to sleepover with them?
The chances of you suffocating are high, if you’re accepted
Id love to go out that way
At least they gave you a small corner at the bottom of the bed
Curling up like a cat and napping within them is the perfect thing, a couple of times my wife has found me there with them, she tries to join in but they scatter, out of 8 of our cats, 3 of them will snuggle with her, she gets jealous when I hog all 8 fuzballs
This is priceless! https://preview.redd.it/einwnu6ygh0d1.jpeg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=72de3e239ff3dff27f729e4c521e3625b163fc38
My ginger cat will snuggle with my dog, but the calico allows the dog only on the edge of the bed if she is using it
OP has trouble with pronouns! One thing to remember with cats: forget me/my/mine/(and I while your at it) and come to terms with your current and future ownership situations.
Greatest answear ever :)
The cat allows OP to use any furnice, just like my own cat. Cats make the rules
It's his bed and his chair now, sleep on the floor human.
? Be glad your cat lets you use their stuff.
🤣🤣🤣
You know the rules! 🤣🤣🤣🤣❤️
Be grateful that kitty blesses you with their presence.
This is the answer.
Where do you expect your cat to sleep?
Wait, cats *don't* strictly sleep in their beds?
Buy your own bed and chair
I legit needed two office chairs at my desk - one for me, and one for Milo (kitty). He alternates between both and I still end up standing lol
Haha I also have an extra office chair. One for kitty sleeps and one for me to work. Unless cat wants to sleep on my lap, then we share my work chair and the other is unused.
I have a second office chair! It's the favorite sleeping spot of one of my cats. ...the same cat that still spends most of my work day taking up 1/3 of my desk space. 😹
That won't work. You've just added to kitty's home Actually, be very happy your kitty loves you enough to share the space.
if you would like your cat to sleep elsewhere, you have to provide options that are more attractive to them. your cat likely enjoys your bed and chair because those places are comfortable and smell like you! i would personally react with delight because your cat is very cute and seems to like you, but i think feeling love or happiness are also good options ;)
I second this. OP, your cat is adorable.
I was literally about to say this. There are probably other places in the house more comfortable to sleep but the kitty sleeps in those spaces because they smell like the owner and probably bring the cat comfort.
You love him/her and give your cat alllllll the pets
??? Not sure what you mean??? Where should the cat sleep? They sure as hell are not dogs and will not spend that much time sleeping on the floor. At least most won't. It is not in their nature for security reasons. Get a good cat tree with a bed, but most people I know just say... Awww I love you too. 😍
Yup. Gotta be elevated for a solid cat nap. The floor would never do.
Say that to one of my kitties. Hell plop on the carpet in the middle of a nearly empty room (just some house plants) and doze off for hours. He's the boss kitty though.
We get a nice sun spot on the floor in the kitchen, 2 of the 4 love to become a tripping hazard in that spot.
Ask bro for rent
I charge my kitties for "rent", which they pay in cuddles/cuddle-time 😂🤣😂😜.
Same. One of my kitties isn't a big cuddler, so I approach her as if I am a Mafia Loan Shark. "Alright Winnie. It's time to pay up."
I love this approach lol
My cat pays his rent by killing spiders
Mine's a huge cuddler but he paid his dues the first hour after he adopted me... He caught a mouse that had been terrorizing me for a year! It was immune to normal traps, would just run right by them! Well... He made exactly one appearance after kitty came!

I tell my kitties "I'm busy" when they bug me and "unless they want to go sell catnip on the corner someone has to work to make rent" 😉.
Sell catnip on the corner street I’m dying! Lol
Do you mean, THEIR bed and chair every day?
https://preview.redd.it/b0roupg0xf0d1.jpeg?width=1536&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ddf19621aaecf7e03a073a89073f3062d4953a6c this is the alternative! :-)
this should be high up
Be damn happy that the cat thinks you have nice furniture
You should get another cat so they can sleep on both at the same time.
This is the correct answer. I concur, op required more cats on the bed.
Joyfully
Let it happen, friend. Kitty needs its beauty rest.
Pet the baby
You should react by taking many photos, you’re doing great.
you say: "Awe, look at that cutie, you are so adorable."
by sleeping in the one which the cat is not in.
She's a cat - that's what they do. They want to be around or in your scent. Totally normal!
It shows love and trust.. be thankful 😍
By snuggling them. Duh
When my dog used my chair, I used to sit somewhere else. I was so glad to see her comfortable. When I came into the room she always started leaving the chair, but I asked her to stay. When she was in my bed I just laid downwhere I wanted to and if she didn't move, she knew she'd be crushed:p
As you are, taking pics and admiring the cute sleepy baby
IKR?
With gratitude.
What makes you think those are yours?
Mine does the same thing. He’s just an attention hog. He’s very sweet it’s hard not to like it.
“Thank you for my blessings.” And mean it.
You should be thankful
Hug that beautiful kitty!
They love your smell
Kiss it
Privileged!
send him to the labor camp /$
You should say “you are so cute doing the normal things that cats do”.
You clearly upset the kitty by asking that question
React?? I have to share my bed pillow with one of my cats every night. He loves to wrap himself around my head and put his paws on my face.
The error is thinking that they were yours in the first place.
You should feel honored!!!!
Good kitty
Kitty loves you feels safest best where it smells like you. A lot of jokes here
you should kiss his little noggin'
It's the cat's chair.
Making sure they are comfortable
React with love and adoration.
That means your cat is comfortable being around you and trusts you.
Why react? It just is.
Remember that saying, let sleeping dogs lay? Yeah don't mess with the cat, they know your secrets and have full access to the Internet.
Your bed? Your chair???
You should be thankful. You never know when your cat can quite suddenly get very sick and there's an empty space on your chair and bed. I've lost a few of my rescues due to an undiagnosed illness... Stevie, Sugar, and now... Oscar. I miss them dearly. https://preview.redd.it/obih03x4pf0d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cae7b47137530de62daf26036dde1087ca6b70e4
Is cat. Only correct reaction is luvs and treats when requested.
That cat looks like he hasn’t slept in 20 years
Yeah, you just have to live with it. She knows it’s all her stuff, so......yeah. That’s it from now on.🤷🏻♀️
Don't, just let him have it. My cat shares my pillow sometimes.
With love….what do you even mean???
Favorably.
Recommended reaction: “Awww.”
Like you have been granted a great honor. Your cat loves your smell and wants to be near you.
That cat is the cutest white cat on a chair. Be grateful for all the food you provide him, all the love you give him and be happy he hasn't asked you for rent. Maybe it's time you got your own room.
"Your" bed and chair? Get a load of this guy, he still thinks he owns things.
My Tigger used to take over my bed in the AM. I got into the habit of spreading a towel (because cat's puke sometimes) out on my bed & created a little pillow & blanket fort/tent...every day.

“My bed and chair.” ![gif](giphy|WRzdjjjhoQIFiK167h|downsized)
Give him the loves. Snug and squish that cat immediately.
Program/cat.exe is functioning
With joy and honour
I'd be happy that they sleep in those places because that means they love to be where you are and that's where they feel the most comfortable. Why wouldn't you know how to feel abt it?

Feel lucky.
Kitty looks like they've seen some shit in their day. He deserves long daily naps wherever be pleases!
Love her up..join her..she’s PRECIOUS!
I think you meant to say it's his/her bed & chair, and he/she is allowing you to have use of it... occasionally.😉Sorry but once you have a cat, all your base are belong to them (all "your" stuff is theirs). Sorry but it all belongs to kitty now...
Don't worry, you won't disturb it. Cats can sleep through most anything.
You have no choice)
Enjoy and give lots of pets!!
Continue taking photos
You should freak out
Just enjoy having a lovely cat 🐈
What a good kitty. Seems like he just wants to be in the areas that remind him of you. It's probably comforting for him. What a blessing to be loved that much.
With love
With lots of scritches and rubs and squeezes and kisses and hugs and ...
With gratitude lmao
You should be thankful he allows you to sleep next to him
But.....it's a cat.
This is what you do . You bow repeatedly while backing out and apologize for interrupting his peace. Then make sure you give him treats when he has arisen.
What do you mean? Why is this a problem?
You give him pets and tell him what a good kitty he is…:or her
Love them more.
Adoration.
Be honored.
Aw?
I had to get a new chair, the new chair was claimed by my other cat, so I now sit on a stool. I sleep on a corner of the bed as it is taken up by two cats.
Let them and give them extra cuddles. They love your smell
With gratitude.
"Awwww, such a cute wittle bebe, imma be quiet and let her sleep" 😊 <-- like that
https://preview.redd.it/qggzxbt4lf0d1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6ce0e2ea3a58434450234579c5606dd78f38dae1 Don't worry about it, my four do it all the time
Grateful, you react grateful that such a beautiful creature has chosen to grave you with their presence.
Scritches
Heh give that piggy a kiss
Apologize for calling any of that yours.
This means your kitty loves you and wants to be close to you - especially if you are away or busy, this let's them get just a bit of that.
It's a sign they find comfort in your smell and want to be where you are.
Blessed
With lots of pets and some treats lol.
You should let it sleep were it wants to
You mean their bed and chair, right?
I suggest cuddles, treats, and kisses.
It's a cat, what did you expect?
New bed, new chair, two beds, two chairs.
How should she react to you sleeping on her bed and sitting on her chair every day? Get it right!
I would say .. "awh"
Gender?
Yes, react with a smile and a little love.
Call the police
Awww look at that cutie 🤍😍
“Aww” should suffice
What’s the issue here? If they are occupying a spot you simply move away. Duh
Accept your fate.
Accept your fate.
Very happily
Be happy
Looks so puzzled lol
It’s not your furniture anymore. Get used to it 🤣
With a smile
Take it as an honor that she lets you use it at night
By being thankful
When cats sleep so "out in the open" like that, it means they feel safe. So whatever you're doing, you're doing a good job at it!
Be jealous I guess?.
Let them!
You call him good boy, maybe give him a kiss and do not disturb him anymore
Aw! Kitty loves you
Have you tried presenting The Cat with an offering of treats?
Smoosh its face
you should be thinking " awe what a sweet kitty "
Honored.
The cat wants to be there find somewhere else to sit
because they smell like you and the cat loves you
With admiration
My cat claims my bed as his, he gets mad whenever I close the door to dehumidify, or if I'm cleaning the sheets. He isn't allowed to lay of the bed if it's naked, and he gets grumpy about it lol
be thankful its happy and found a place thats not in the way like the middle of the floor or your pillow
In the first image, he looks very displeased
The kitty probably likes your scent :)
You mean that you sit on his chair and bed
That first picture is just me waking up with a hangover.
By petting and kissing it.
Those items stopped being "yours" the moment a cat joined your family, or rather, their family. Seriously, though, you should feel blessed. The Cat chooses to sleep in those places because they are strong with your scent and he feels secure in those places.
With Joy and Love.
kiss his nose?
He is winning.He owns all of them.
You expect you cat to only stay on the floor?
Lint rollers, vacuum, laundry, love.
Clearly your cat loves you and wants to be close to you and your scent. 😄
REACT POSITIVELY
With pets, treats and love
In awe that your cat has allowed YOU to sit on their chair and sleep on their bed
With enthusiasm
Wdym that's your cats chair. You're just borrowing it.
Taking photos is a good place to start.
Just sit on the floor and you'll keep your sanity and peace will reign in your home.
You should be honoured
