Here’s a shorter version of the cat co-sleeping summary: — Many cat owners love having their cats sleep in bed for comfort and bonding, as it reduces anxiety and releases feel-good hormones. However, sharing your bed with cats can pose health risks like infections (e.g., toxoplasmosis), parasites (fleas, ticks), and allergens that may trigger respiratory issues. Cats’ nighttime activity can also disrupt your sleep, leading to tiredness and mood changes. Medical treatments and parasite control can add unexpected costs. To co-sleep safely, keep up with vet care, wash bedding regularly, groom your cat often, ventilate your room, and consider giving your cat its own cozy bed nearby. While risks vary by region, with proper precautions, you can enjoy cuddling with your cat while protecting both your health and theirs.
