All my critters are kept in my room or in the room connected to my room. One of my cats is ALWAYS in my "Animal Room" She doesn't bother anyone. She just likes sleeping on top of the water heater. Then when she hears someone either in the bathroom or I go in my room then she meows like she's stuck in that room and doesn't know how to get out. lol. My room is in the basement, so the ceiling is basically all open and she gets up into the ceiling through the laundry room to get to my animal room. My bedroom door is always kept shut, so my dogs are never around my other critters.
