Let’s examine why your pets like to sleep in bed with you.   A Relationship Like No Other The relationship between humans and pets is a fascinating example of co-evolution, dating back thousands of years. The earliest known domesticated animal was the dog, which humans began taming around 15,000 to 30,000 years ago, according to archaeological and genetic evidence. These early dogs likely descended from wolves that became attracted to human settlements for easy access to food. Over generations, wolves that were less fearful and more tolerant of humans would have had an evolutionary advantage, gradually leading to the domesticated dogs we know today. This process of self-domestication laid the foundation for a profound interspecies...

Bed-sharing among family members has been a centuries-old practice driven by economic necessity, cultural traditions, and practicality. Ancient cultures valued communal sleeping as a way to foster closeness and strengthen bonds within families. Living and sleeping in close quarters brought families together both literally and figuratively.  During the medieval period, cramped living conditions made bed-sharing more of a necessity. Entire families, including servants, slept in the same room on beds or raised pallets. As living standards improved in the 18th and 19th centuries, individualized sleeping arrangements started to emerge, and this gave birth to the “master bedroom” concept. In the 20th century, home builders accommodated the trend of individualized sleeping with multiple bedrooms for a single family.
