睡前不能做的事情之七-跟宠物腻在一起Cuddle WithYour Pets

As a child, I always wanted to have my beloved pet chihuahua sleep in my (twin) bed. And then came the reality: it’s amazing how much space a 6 pound creature can take up, and how grumpy chihuahuas can be when you disturb their slumber.

我从小就想让我的吉娃娃跟我一起睡。接着问题就来了：一个6磅重的家伙，占得空间一点也不小；而且，他们在睡觉的时候，万一被打扰了，脾气会相当暴躁。

The point is, sleeping with a pet in your bed can seriously disturb your sleep.

所以，关键点是：跟宠物一起睡觉的话，受到打扰的可是你。
