Why won't my kitten sleep in my room anymore?

A Siamese Ragdoll! What a cutie! I always wanted one until I found a Maine Coon at the pound when I was 20 and she took over my life. ("Yeah, I'm sitting on your head while you read the paper/drive the car/etc. And your problem is...?" 14 pounds of ego! TIP: Brush, brush, brush her. Make it fun and enjoyable now and later on your life will be much easier!)

OK, so about your question. RELAX. All cats rotate where they sleep during the day and night. It is very normal. My vet suggests that it is a tie to their wild roots -- move where you sleep for protection from fleas/parasites, predators, go to new "hunting grounds" etc. My "kitTeens" are perfect examples of this: one week Grace sleeps in a box on the floor, for two weeks on my bed, then on the red couch, while Dr. Crumpet is on top of the TV, in the hall, both on the bed with me for one night (I know because I woke up in the middle of the night from the weight of both of them on my legs), etc. Dr. Crumpet seems to move from one human bed to another to assert her dominance -- she's definitely the Alpha cat and will be the 'queen'.

I do know your kitten is almost certainly not sleeping the entire night through on anyone's bed at this point. While we humans get in our 8 hours, cats get up and move around, play/hunt, etc. She actually may be sleeping in your bed for part of the night and you don't realize it! That's definitely true for my two princesses. (I may fall asleep with them on my bed, and wake up because Dr Crumpet is standing on top of me, but that doesn't mean anything. The proof is the messed up living room in the morning. Hmm, broken picture frame, paw prints on the kitchen counter, someone was licking the cake on the table... must have um, been raccoons. They, um, came in through the chimney... riiiiight.)

So let your little sweetie pie grow up and be herself... and don't worry about it. It's definitely not personal, and the whole medicine thing is in the past. If, after a couple of *months* she isn't on your bed then try cuddling her more -- or alternately be cool and give her space because she's a cat and you can NOT try to push it. (My son tries to make the cats sleep on his bed and they are like, all, No Way Man, like, we are wild and free and you are not cool.) She's growing up and you have to respect that, even if it is sad. It's part of Life's journey and fun in it's own way!

Can I sleep at the airport?

I missed my flight and went to costumer service and got a new flight in the morning. Could I stay in the gate area until morning? I don t want to have to buy a hotel room near the airport and I was dropped off so I can t drive anywhere or sleep in my car. Also so I don t have to go through airport security again.

Why do you get a DUI if you sleep in the backseat of your car drunk?

You won't necessarily. The court has to consider the totality of the circumstances. Most states make it unlawful to "drive or be in actual physical control" of a vehicle while under the influence. The "actual physical control" clause covers situations where the car is not moving. A car that is parked and running, parked and stalled, or is otherwise immediately capable of being driven may be in actual physical control of an intoxicated person. There was a case in Nevada in the 1970s (sorry, I don't have the citation) where a Nevada state trooper found a man asleep in the back seat of a car parked well off of the roadway. The engine was off and the keys were in his pocket. There were no empty containers of alcohol in or around the vehicle, although the occupant was clearly intoxicated. There was no evidence that someone had walked away from where the vehicle was parked. The trooper arrested the occupant for DUI and obtained a conviction. The rationale was that the occupant had to have driven the car while intoxicated in order to create the scenario. He was immediately capable of starting the car and driving away while he was still intoxicated, and was thus in actual physical control of the car while intoxicated. I have arrested and obtained a conviction on people who were passed out behind the wheel of their cars when they got in them after drinking, and fell asleep while waiting for the car to warm up. I've also busted them when they passed out at an intersection, stopped while waiting for a red light to change (those are usually pretty evident, as there will be a long line of cars backed up behind the drunk's car). If you're too drunk to drive, stay away from your car.
