My late lamented Lollypup (a 50 lb. lab/collie mix) would settle in behind my knees as I slept on my side and stay there, settling me down well for a full night's sleep. I should try putting a large plushie there (yes I have a couple) and see if that helps.
Now that we've upped the housecat population to 3, rousing fights happen several times a night. The first two rarely fought, maybe because they are littermates, but the recent addition of NewSpunkyKitten has made my bed into a battlefield. Disturbingly, my... err, crotch, is the favored spot of all three cats leaving me either a) pinned and unable to move or b) waking up to a hissyfest between my legs at 3 am.
