Why do my cats sleep on me every night and not my husband?

Every night they sleep on me. Even if i change what side of the bed i sleep on they can find me and will sleep on my back or my legs. It was funny at first that they liked me better then my husband but now its kind of old. My oldest cat is 21pds and he sleeps on my back. I'll push him off during the night but it seems he knows once im back to sleep, he'll jump right back up there and i'll wake up and he's on my back. Its starting to give me a back ache throught the day. My other cat is about 15pds but she'll mostly either sleep on my pillow or on my legs. I dont even remember the last time i woke up and they both were on me. why is this? i dont know how much longer my back can take it!!! i know i can shut the door to the bedroom but they will scratch and cry for hours...i've tried it before.Why do my cats sleep on me every night and not my husband?
They think you're they're mommy! Have you tried getting cat beds and toys outside the room? It will take some patience but you can shut them out if they have somewhere to go. They'll cry and scratch the first few nights but should get the message.Why do my cats sleep on me every night and not my husband?
Mine do the same thing! I thought it was because I'm warmer, but really, I think I just toss and turn less. I found that mine will lay on a certain blanket (furry) instead of me as long as I put it on the foot of my bed. Maybe you could try the same thing. Go to a fabric store and get a yard of some different furry/velvet-y fabrics and see if they like any of those better than you!





Good luck!
Do you move less than him?


Do you cats have a history of being abused? (my dog hates short skinny men; she was from a shelter.)


Do you have restless nights, anxiety, bad dreams or anything similar? (cats are intuative; they go to whoever needs them the most-I cry alot at night and my kitten always seems to know what hurts, my head or back or whatever)
Are you the one that feeds them?
You are the softer warmer human so they sleep on you. I too am a cat pillow.
omg they really love you @_@ my puppy dose not love me he love my wife when i let him sleep with me he jump out of my arm and go to my wife
I would love to go with the being warmer theory, but I am freezing all the time.





My kids take turns feeding them in the morning, so that's not it.





I have the same problem, and my back is toast, so I now go to the chiropractor once a week. The only difference is I have 4 cats. 2 of them are 14lbs. one is 16 lbs., and my baby is about 12 lbs.





I prefer to think, it is just cuz they love me so much. I did have my vet say, it could be since women have mammary glands, and they are attracted to the scent.





I think they just like be more than my hubby.
my opinion is the fact, from experience , they love you and hate you at the same time.


my kittie maggie whose obese *** is on me all night is trying to suck the very life out of me dont take it personally!!!!
It probably likes your scent, voice and clothing better than your husbands! cats love comfort
Im sure you give your cats 100% more attention than your hubby does. Cats will love anyone who pets them and feeds them. Ask him to give them more attention so they can love him more.
