Before getting Bob I did a lot of research. One thing I read repeatedly was that I shouldn't sleep with a bird for the bird's saftey. When I read that it struck me as a pointless tip, as I could see that it be dangerous for the bird, but I could not imagine desiring to have one in bed with me while I slept.

Once I had Bob for about a month though I understood the warning. As I do want to sleep with my birds, and there is a chance that if I had not read the warnings I might have put good sence aside.

Oh well, I'm glad that I don't sleep with the birds as it is much safer for them, and I would probably sleep poorly if I was worring about rolling over on them in the back of my head.

Sorry for the pointless, rambling post.
 
Another reason research is always a great idea before getting any pet!

A bird could never sleep with me anyway - I apparently snore badly enough that it scared my rabbit on occasion - and she was several feet away from the bed, and on the floor!
