My Jaz is definitely preparing me for babyhood! She sleeps on the floor in a bed next to ours and ever since we got her 2 years ago I have not slept a full night, as she needs to go to the toilet every morning anywhere between 1am & 3am. I wake up instantly at the sound of the shake when she gets up.
Well in the last week we have had 3 loooong nights of storms, and she is terrified of storms. About half an hour before they hit she jumps up on the bed, whimpering & licking me frantically to wake me up, we then snuggle up and she relaxes and goes to sleep. Then she's snoring and twitching away so then I can't sleep, yet I don't move her.
I know it's all my own fault for letting her sleep with us but after everything she's been through I don't have the heart to boot her outside, especially when I know how scared she gets. We did try for a little while making her sleep in the spare bathroom but all she did was cry & yelp & scratch all the paint off the back of the door. So that put an end to that!
And this morning amidst the dust-storm mayhem the little miss is yawning away and lazing on our bed. I found myself going in and closing the blinds and doors for her so she can get some sleep in the dark... Oh dear I think I need help LOL
