Oh I have a black cat too in Manila. He used to sleep beside me (and the 3 other cats we have). I don't usually allow them on my bed but I can't help it when I'm asleep. Most of the time, I just wake up and they're all cuddled to me! My siblings usually laugh at me when they see that.
I normally wake to my cat lying next to me. I gave up a long time ago trying to stop him jumping on my bed.
Harlene has already told me off and said when she comes here the cat isn't allowed in the bedroom!!
