My Russian Blue Emma sleeps on my stomach mostly; every once in a while,
however, she will sleep on my pillow folded round my head. Very cozy and
warm on winter nights :-)

Quite a few of the cats I have known would sleep on my chest. Although
neither of the current two will. I suspect it may be related to the ever
diminishing firmness of this sleeping perch. :(

Smokey likes to sleep on my feet under the covers. Silly cat. Cali likes to
sleep beside me, sometimes under my arm.

My Cheeky sleeps on my hip, as in when I am lying curled on my side she
drapes over me from waist to knee. She is small, though, just 7.5 lbs on a
heavy day. Mico must love you!

My little yellow kitty, Jezebel, will sometimes sleep on my chest if
she's not sleeping on the opposite corner of the bed below my SO's feet.
She's just about a year old, and only a little over 7 pounds so it's not
so bad if she wants to use my chest as a perch.

My other cat, Ghoti (pronounced "Fish" -- you can figure it out) always
sleeps on my feet or between my knees. This is good because he's a
monster 17.5 pounds of black cat, and it's all muscle. I'd suffocate if
he wanted to sleep on my chest! Plus, I never have to worry about cold
feet.

Bug, our grey kitty, used to sleep curled around the top of my head when
he was a kitten, but now sleeps under the bed.

Tazendra, our newest addition, pure white, likes to find the highest
place in the house she can climb to and nap there. Every morning,
however, she purrs, poofs up just the base of her tail, and jumps in bed
for some serious finger-nibbling.

My 4 year old girl cat often sleeps on my chest, or just perches there and
kneads (yay for thick blankets!).  As a kitten, she would sit on my head and
lick/paw my hair, but I wasn't too fond of that and managed to convince her
not to do so.

It's really awkward when I'm lying on my side and she decides to sleep on top
of my waist!

Yes, both of mine do (not at the same time, fortunately).  Holly often does
that when I'm in bed (and other occasions will just claim a spot beside me);
Duffy invariably climbs on top of me when I lie on the sofa either to sleep
or to watch TV.  They are my true loves.

My cats all sleep in different spots...Cat5 will sleep cuddled up like
a child would do, or between the legs, Lucifer sleeps between legs or
on my hips, Miss Thang sleeps behind the knees and so does
Lancelot..but Lancelot also sleeps on the pillow above my head.

I am usually weighed down by 3 of them.  Then there are the two who insist
on getting under the covers (Mickey goes low, Callie goes high) and the
three who must sleep next to my face (and often squabble across me as there
is only room for two) and then there's the one who insists on laying across
my feet.  It does get hard to get a good night's sleep!

Of course this is only in winter.  In summer, most of them prefer to sleep
elsewhere.  Thank goodness.

My husband is a very nice person who lets his cats sleep on him. They
only do this when it's cold. Tribbles was so sharp that she could stay
on him while he turned over. We compared her to those people that get
into logrolling contests. she never lost her footing just kept her
grip. Nanette comes in in the middle of the night when the wood stove
cools off. She perches right on top of him for the rest of the night.
She's not as good as Tribbles was. If he moves, she has to get down
and climb up again. he complains about it but I know he really loves
it.

I had a cat who would sleep on my face.  I'd wake up smothering, only
to find he was completely covering my head and I had a mouthful of
hair.

One of my current cats doesn't sleep on me, but she kneads her paws
into my stomach if I'm laying in bed.  I think she's trying to give me
a hint ;)

Ho yes. My small-but-enthusiastic cat likes sleeping on my chest (in
the cooler months, anyway), with his nose touching mine. This is all
well and good, apart from:

1. If I move more than a micron, said cat will start purring and
attempting to shove his head up my nostrils. He might also do a lap of
the bed before returning to the chest perch.

2. In the morning he dribbles profusely in anticipation of food.
Having a cat with his head up your nose dribbling continually - well,
it's not quite as civilised as being woken by an alarm clock.

If it gets especially cold during the night, he'll often squeeze under
the covers and sleep under my knees. I have woken in the night with
apparently my entire weight on the little bugger and he's still
catching cat Z's.

Mind you, this is a cat of great sillyness. He likes sitting on my
shoulder while I eat and occasionally trying to snare a mouthful. Once
he was sitting on my shoulder while I was cleaning a litterbox.
Decided to jump vertically in the air, landing on my ear with all
claws out. Blood everywhere. My other cat cleaned up by licking said
blood. Symbiotic.

My other cat has more decorum anyway. He just settles next to my head,
and wakes me in the morning by jumping onto my bollocks.

My cat Icarus likes to rest on top of me. Isis also likes to do this as well
but it usually isn't for long.

Delilah sleeps between my knees and refuses to move at all.  If I have to
get up in the night, I contort all ways as to not disturb her. She also
sleeps under the covers with us the odd time but tends to bite my husband's
a.s so he keeps an eye on her.

Stella sleeps on my upper chest and throat... if I am on my side, she sleeps
on my hip. If my husband has his hand on me, she head buts it out of the way
and settles down where his hand was.

Well, I guess Mico isn't that unusual after all.  Thank you, everybody for
your feedback!
