Imagine: it's the middle of the week, nighttime, you're sleeping, everything is lovely, then suddenly BOOM. Something crashes in your house. If you're first reaction, instead of fear of an intruder, is a resigned sigh and muttering the words: "3am... again..." congratulations, you're a cat owner, and your cat is having some zoomie time.
We don't know precisely why our little crazy furballs have these intense fits of energy at the absolutely worst times, but they do. And though when they wake us up from our precious sleep in the middle of the night on a workday, we might want to cry ever so slightly, but... at least we have a little cat demon to cuddle.
Is this a thing for other people's cats as well? Mine also sometimes has running fits right as she exists the litterbox. What is it exactly that happens in there when I don't look? What makes him lose his mind like that? Do I even wanna know or if this one of those cat secrets that should forever and always stay a cat secret?
It's especially bad when your cat is chonkier than most. When mine gets the zoomies in the middle of the night and starts galloping around the house and across my bed, full speed and full force, not only does my furniture goes flying, but when he runs over my stomach, I literally get my breath knocked out of me. Still love him though. So much.
