One time I accidentally left my bedroom door opened and gone to work, come back with a slightly trashed bedroom and poop stain on my bedsheet because they found an uncharted land that day. So no, not me, i don't have the mental energy to deal with those thing again. Plus my allergy will probably kill me.

When it's time to go to sleep I call my cat and he comes willingly.
I'm just too triggered by having to have my bedroom door open all the time when I lived at home.
is this about airflow? that really is valid, people don't get enough fresh air inside imo.
about the cats, yeah, they definitely deserve a spot next to you.
edit: i checked and yes it's about co2 buildup. keep the air moving, open that door.
I would like to but damn those birds are loud starting from 4am
Omg, the mocking birds here are insane. I wake up early naturally, but those motherfuckers are SO LOUD they wake me up even earlier.

Experts: open their cage door too and this problem will resolve itself
Just use Teflon cookware.

It's a fire prevention thing to keep doors closed, if a fire breaks out when you're asleep it really can make the difference in you surviving it. But, the cats aren't going to let me do that, so we all go down together.
Fire likes oxygen. As it turns out, so do lungs.
That's what the smoke detectors are for. They are mandatory where I live.

You could just sleep with the window open, rather than having the cat jump on your belly at 3am waking you up and scaring the hell out of you.
I don't live in a climate that supports that. My cat can come and go as she pleases. My other cat won't come in at night because it's not his territory.
Yeah, getting a good air quality monitor has made me understand the value of open windows. The co2 levels are so much higher with the windows closed
My window faces a busy road. Air quality is definitely way better with the window closed.

If you give a pet a good home, I won't judge you. Me personally, however; I would sooner sleep outside than keep my fuzzy kitty from curling up in the crook of my arm, placing her paws in my hand, and resting her little head on me so she purrs like crazy before we both drift off to sleep...
I sneezed by just thinking of that :(
My cat FINALLY figured out that I don’t want her on my chest to sleep. She jumps up in the middle of the night and nestles into my arm and purrs herself to sleep. It’s so cute. And I’m allergic to her. It’s worth it.
It doesn’t matter which side of the door she’s on, she wants it open.
we all want what we can't have
My cat is exactly like that, such a precious little cuddler...
Except that she wants to lick my face constantly. And that is not conducive to getting any kind of sleep. So she gets shut in a different room at night.
My wife used to wake up tired some mornings and not know why, until I pointed out that the difference was whether her cat was nibbling on her shirt all night.
cat is just trying to prevent all the spiders from climbing into your mouth and you lock her out.
Those spiders are excellent nutrition!
How am I supposed to get proper gains without my little nighttime protein snacks?

I would let my dog in bed with me but he twitches ad barks in his sleep
These advertising companies have gone too far
People living in single room apartments: Fuck me, right?!
Well you're sleeping in the kitchen so you're already fucked
Actually, my kitchen is separate with a door and everything. I'd count it as a "real" room if it was large enough for a table.
I have a bitchen. It's a bathroom kitchen toilet combo.
The bed comes down from the roof on a pulley system so, yep, I'm quite posh.
And now the cats present, 3am zoomies ahead of a big day
