LOL!   I still don't let my cats sleep with me but I am having to alternate
between bedrooms.  I have to use whichever one where there is not a cat
sleeping on the duvet ;-)

Rita has learned that if she sleeps on the table next to the bed, on
the comfy pillow
that I have put there for her royal butt, she is much less likely to
be rudely kicked or
thrown off the bed while I roll over or otherwise disturb her sleep.
So, she comes
over to get pets, then climbs up there to sleep, and she's still there
(or again)
when I wake up in the morning.

Ketzl often changes the radio station I'm listening to by walking over the
remote, and for a while he was making long-distance telephone calls by
stepping on the quick-dial buttons or the redial button on my desk phone. I
think he was trying to make me consent to getting him his own cell phone.

Melisande can get me on my feet instantly from a sound sleep
by making hacking-a-hairball sounds when she's sleeping on
top of me on my best duvet!

Our four kittens just jump all over us in a hailstorm of tiny paws and
if that doesn't get results they'll climb the pile of foam cushions
on the trunk at the foot of the bed and pull them all over on top of
us.  They don't do subtlety.

Zeke used to have a route he would follow in the middle of the night
which involved bouncing from a chair to a desk to a bookshelf unit.
And before leaving the desk, bounce off an Apple Stylewriter.  These
had the power-on buttons on top.  He managed to hit them every time.
*thud*  BOING!!!  whizza-chunka-chunka-chunka-clunk-clunk-BEEEEP!!!
I don't think he ever managed to set off the diagnostic page print
function but we didn't leave the manual around where he could find it.

I have been awakened on several occasions by a cat stepping on the
"On" button on my clock radio.  I have also had the reverse happen a
couple of times, where the cat brushes against the volume control and
turns the radio down so far that it doesn't awaken me when it goes
off.

I once came home to my TV blaring at full volume. Someone had stepped on
the remote while I was at work. I don't leave it in standby any more. :)

lol! Daddy, you're missing the Ben and Jerry cartoons! Wake up and
lets see if the cat can catch the mouse this time.

I like your phrase "Cats leave pawprints on your heart"

Onyx used to do that to me--though it was by perching on top of the tv
and leaning ever so slightly on the power button. In addition to waking
me from time to time, it also proved a most effective method when I was
too engrossed in a television show to pay him the attention he felt he
deserved:) "Want to watch that? NOT." -step on button-
