Have you ever woken up next to a cat that's not even YOUR cat? We have heard those elusive stories in the past, but they are indeed quite hard to believe. Well, this reddit user can say that yes, yes he has. After falling asleep next to his wife, u/sami73 woke up to find that in his wife's spot, a cat was sleeping peacefully. This situation begs the question, has this happened to anyone else? Any other comedic instances of cats visiting their neighbors and setting up camp?

After doing some research and further developing our theory that cats are secretly evil geniuses, we discovered that this actually happens quite often. Reddit users shared their own hilarious instances of finding cats in their homes that were definitely not THEIR cats! Sometimes, as a cat, you happen upon the neighbor's house and just need a snuggle buddy. What's a cat to do?

    Well, he sure is a cutie patootie. We sure hope OP allowed him to contniue enjoying his beauty sleep before he was eventually returned to his home. Maybe OP will even consider getting his own feline cuddle buddy!

    Font - 360inMotion · 13h I used to wake up to my neighbor's cat in my bed as well back in the day, until I found a tick biting into my stomach one morning. D: To be fair we were in a wooded area, and Diablo obviously didn't mean to bring in pests on purpose. After that I found a better way to block the windows, but I was still certain to provide him nice ear rubs out on the safety of our front porch.

    Devlish Diablo at it again, though he obviously did not mean to bring any pests in, he was just looking for a snuggle buddy. What can you do? Sometimes, stuff happens. Consistent ear rubs out on the safety of the front porch sounds like the right way to go about this situation, though.

    Font - External-Assist-8441 · 11h My male cat refused to be an indoor cat and chewed through the screen one night. He was gone for a week but chubbier than when he left. Finally he came hone during a thunderstorm totally soaked so he probably got locked out of his new digs. Then I just closed the glass door and he tried to claw and chew his way out again. But couldn't of course. He held a grudge! 4 14 cbelt3 +1• 11h Heh... we had four mini panthers (solid black, two short hair, two long hair). B

    Font - External-Assist-8441 · 15h Cats will do this if you let them out. I even heard about two families who both thought it was their cat because at one house he spent the days and at the other the nights. So he cheated on both families and doubled up on food. I insist that cats are crazy smart. 6 Reply 1 147 3 cbelt3 +1• 11h There is a lovely children's book "Six Dinner Sid" where this is the theme. It's adorable. 4 30 3 +

    Font - S Ali550n • 11h That happened to me once. I was staying the weekend with friends who had a dog, not a cat. Woke up in the middle of the night to a cat sleeping on me. I woke everyone up.. turns out their cat disappeared about 6 months earlier and had a way to get in-out through the attic. Decided to come home once to sleep on me and then ran off in the middle-of-the-night commotion and never came back again.

    Font - unclesam2000 +2• 18h 1 Award One of our old cats was famous for doing this in my neighborhood. One of my friend's mom worked as a night shift ER nurse and slept during the day. Jack would keep her company 3 or 4 times a week. She got so used to it that when Jack passed away she had trouble sleeping. I can't remember how many times various neighbors called because they found his collar under their beds. G Reply 1 815 + ehlersohnos +2 • 14h That's incredibly adorable. Jack sounds like he wa
