Cats are funny like that, ain't they? Thumper noticed that every morning, the dogs were getting a biscuit when I got out of the shower. So he started asking for treats too. And now he'll sit by his dish in the morning and wait for his crunchies. And it's so funny, he'll be sitting there all nonchalant, and when I get that bag of treats, his eyes get all big. :-)

The dogs each have a floor spot up in the bedroom. Belle the Younger will get up on the bed sometimes in the night. Zenith the Elder will get up on the bed if there's a thunderstorm. Thumper the Eldest Statesman sleeps downstairs in the summer, and upstairs beside warm people in the winter. He does this completely on his own. When he was a wee kitty, he would crawl up under the covers.
