MODERATORS
Two of my experts, pictured here, also agree.
So far I've only seen experts making the same claim and no counter arguments, so therefore I will mark this as true until proven otherwise.

This has to become a meme template
Hahaha you really know my cats, don't you! They are trash cans. They eat everything. They come home with neighbor's trash. When I bake a bread and leave it to cool down, I find it half eaten while I smell their diarea. They always act like I never feed them. Spoiled brats. And they were born in captivity, with parent born in captivity. So it's not like they learned to survive on the streets. They have zero survival instinct.
Also, the text with the dark 3-color is on point. She's the biggest attention whore, drama queen and diva. She eats the fastest and then tries to steal the food from her sisters. She managed to break in into the room with full bags of food by grabbing the door handle and then she managed to dig open the really thick food bags. She then started to growl to keep her sisters away from her loot, because 8kg of kibbles is not enough to share, everyone knows that.
Also, I like you name :)
On the internet nobody knows you're a feline.
If you give a pet a good home, I won't judge you. Me personally, however; I would sooner sleep outside than keep my fuzzy kitty from curling up in the crook of my arm, placing her paws in my hand, and resting her little head on me so she purrs like crazy before we both drift off to sleep...
It doesn’t matter which side of the door she’s on, she wants it open.
we all want what we can't have
My cat is exactly like that, such a precious little cuddler...
Except that she wants to lick my face constantly. And that is not conducive to getting any kind of sleep. So she gets shut in a different room at night.
cat is just trying to prevent all the spiders from climbing into your mouth and you lock her out.

My cat FINALLY figured out that I don’t want her on my chest to sleep. She jumps up in the middle of the night and nestles into my arm and purrs herself to sleep. It’s so cute. And I’m allergic to her. It’s worth it.

is this about airflow? that really is valid, people don't get enough fresh air inside imo.
about the cats, yeah, they definitely deserve a spot next to you.
edit: i checked and yes it's about co2 buildup. keep the air moving, open that door.
It's a fire prevention thing to keep doors closed, if a fire breaks out when you're asleep it really can make the difference in you surviving it. But, the cats aren't going to let me do that, so we all go down together.
That's what the smoke detectors are for. They are mandatory where I live.

You could just sleep with the window open, rather than having the cat jump on your belly at 3am waking you up and scaring the hell out of you.
My window faces a busy road. Air quality is definitely way better with the window closed.

Who are the experts? Arsonists? Doors safe lives.
Somehow you're the only one mentioning this and yes I've only ever heard sleep with door closed to buy time in a fire.

People living in single room apartments: Fuck me, right?!
And now the cats present, 3am zoomies ahead of a big day
Well you're sleeping in the kitchen so you're already fucked
I have a bitchen. It's a bathroom kitchen toilet combo.
The bed comes down from the roof on a pulley system so, yep, I'm quite posh.

I’d love to let my cat sleep in my room. He just won’t be reasonable about it and let me sleep. So the door stays shut.
We keep our doors open because we have young kids. My cat knows this and abuses it. And by the time my kids are old enough to start shutting their doors, Bruce Willis probably will be at the end of his rope, and I'll wish he was still around to abuse it.

I have a CO² sensor. When I sleep with the door shut, the CO² climbs up to and levels out at >1800 ppm.
I have a noticable headache the following day when I do this. I've tested it for nine days and now I've got a doorstop which prevents me from closing the door completely by accident or with drafts
Brew vats of algae in your room. Creates a ton of oxygen and is really easy to care for.
That's the most engineer ass answer I've ever seen.
High Co2? Algae can solve that. How much... Well a vat should do, better make it two just in case.
"Why yes, I do keep vats of algae in my bedroom why do you ask?"
It's my emotional support vat of algae. I keep it in my bed.
There was a video from a guy that tested that. It didn't go as well as he hoped.

Actually experts recommend keeping it closed in the event of a fire lol
Journalists mean "capitalists" and "rich people" when they say "experts". Journalists are just "writing what they're told to", which makes them complicit.
Why the fuck would rich people care about this? This place is fucking ridiculous sometimes.
One time I accidentally left my bedroom door opened and gone to work, come back with a slightly trashed bedroom and poop stain on my bedsheet because they found an uncharted land that day. So no, not me, i don't have the mental energy to deal with those thing again. Plus my allergy will probably kill me.
Holy hell, take care of your cats man.
Nothing serious, just that one of my cat love to scoot their butt onto fabric surface, been to vets and doc said there's nothing wrong with him, so i just have to deal with it. 🤷
Should we take care of him, or "take care of him"?
I sleep with the door open because I live by myself with my cats and my dog
My wife wanted to get a golddoodle dog. Supposedly those are so friendly that it would go tell the robbers where you put your money and your favorite drinks.
