Anyone have cats and want to share their charging setup for bedtime? I have two kittens (double trouble!) and I’m tired of finding my charging cord and sometimes even my phone on my floor when I wake up. I don’t have a wireless charger but unless it’s a stand, I think that would be worse. I can put my phone in the nightstand drawer but since I use it for an alarm, I’d rather not. Just need something that my cats will leave alone. Thanks in advance fir the tips!

It’s cats nature to do this, you could charge in the daytime and hide the phone or tablet at night.
 
Do the cats take the phone out of the drawer if you leave it propped open with a box of tissue or something?
 
I’m assuming you just plug the phone in and leave it to charge on a nightstand? A thought might be to purchase a pack of these. These are super sticky pads but they don’t leave residue on what they stick to. So put a pad down and just leave it. Then put your phone on it at night and press down lightly. It will stay put pretty good. If they get dirty from dust or cat hair...lol...they can be cleaned and are as good as new...

As far as I know, they don't. We'll see though. I'll give it a try. One of the kittens was definitely a pack rat in another life because she'll steal anything that she can carry off! Luckily, that has not been my phone though.
