She likes to curl up against my stomach, but only if I'm on my right side. It bothers her if I turn over and sleep on the other side; for some reason she doesn't like to sleep on that side of me so I'm stuck on my right side if she's there. It's kind of like when your cat is sleeping on your lap and you can't get up to go to the bathroom. It's basically cat jail.
