Interesting bed time rituals
Lady, my shepherd, likes to rake the carpet at bed time. I always wondered if this was a nervous habit as she was a rescue that had been abused.
CiCi, my loveable pit bull, likes to pull/curl up part of her bed, before sitting on it, rather than leaving it flat. Her bed time ritual is to turn around three times before curling up to sleep. Do dogs have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)?
Both dogs seem to whimper in their sleep (limbs twitching, like the cats) as though they are having a bad dream, in Lady's case, perhaps about her life before being rescued and becoming my pampered pet.
The cats like to "knead" the covers, so I only buy non-snag fabrics for our bed (they get old towels for their beds - easy to throw in the wash). All the cats will twitch in their REM sleep, even making some crying whisker twitching mouth movements/sounds. Always wonder if they are chasing prey or other cats.
I had one cat who liked to pull up and chew on the carpet!Private Reply to Marielena Alvarez (new win) |
