I'm just lurking . . . but I agree with you! My dog sleeps in bed with us . . . we think we are going to get a bigger bed to make more room for BOTH us, dog and baby. Lots of studies have shown that children that grow up in houses with pets are healthier/have fewer allergies. Some people just don't understand pets. Of course, I'm a dog person and personally think cats are icky, but I know people feel about their cats the way I feel about my dog!
