Amber and Ruby usually sleep in bed with our daughter. Sometimes Amber decides to be too rough and doesn't want to sleep and that gets Ruby all worked up so on those nights Amber ends up sleeping on the loveseat in the livingroom. They are rarely crated now except if them lose their mind and decide to go on a rampage then it is back in the crate for a few days. Once they spend a night in the livingroom or the crate is all it takes for my girls to get it back together; they love sleeping with Kristana.
