I've been sharing my pillow with Puck for more than 14 years. Sharing my sleepy time, my dreamy time, my "I-can't-get-out-of-bed-time." Puck joined my family when he was 8 weeks old, and even then he didn't have a lot of kitten energy. He's always been kind of a sleepy time guy.
I never have to go looking for Puck. Puddin hides. Opie and Little Mess are free range kitties, they could be anywhere at any given time. And I never know which drawer or cupboard Darwin will be in.
But Puck .... he's usually on my pillow. Or near my pillow, or somewhere on the bed. And as I approach I hear his purr revving up, growing ever louder.
It used to annoy me, that loud purr of Puck's. I used to complain that I couldn't get any sleep with that buzz saw in my ear. But now, as Puck grows ever older, and the buzz saw grows slowly softer, I can't imagine falling asleep without it.
It's the best sleep aid there is.
