Pets on bed- a hindrance?

i had a dog for 15 years which slept on my bed each night, i didnt realize i never had a dream untill shortly after she died… which was about her, and i think that perhaps her sleeping on my bed each night DID cause me to not sleep well, and or remember my dreams.

My cat sleeps with me, and I dream a lot…
Actually, the warmth from her body makes me more relaxed.

Weevil, perhaps you only do remember the important dreams - like the one with your dog, since I guess she meant much to you…

its true, i do have alot of dreams about my dog. but mostly just dreams about lost love, god, or the occasional pleasant dream with random mystery women.

So, yesterday night I decided to WILD. I lay on my back because I find it harder to fall asleep then, and my cat jumped up and lay on my stomach.
It all ended up with I found it very hard to breathe because of her weight (I think?), and I had to break off the whole thing just when I was soo near lucidity.
