We all need a 'Li-on' from time to time, but it seems that our feline friends need it more than most! In fact, our furry babies have to have between 12 - 16 hours of beauty sleep every day, which definitely explains the awwdorable (and at times surprising) pics in this list.

Fun Cat Fact: Did you know that Cats have been known to snore and prefer napping on wet and dreary days (just like us!)? They even dream (30% - 40% of the time), makes you wonder if they are dreaming about us……? Probably not!

From peaceful Princes to sprawled out Sallys, we have brought together 21 of the internet's sleepiest cats to make you 'feline' all warm and fuzzy inside. Still, with all this sleeping, you have to wonder, where do they find the time and energy for midnight zoomies?!

Now that is what we call sleeping in style. Spread out as much as possible, but ready to pounce at a moments notice. According to moderncat.com it is common for Cat's bodies to be rigid while sleeping as it prepares them for the pounce! They are even still smelling and listening while they are asleep!

Ohh, to be smushed on the sofa on a cold rainy day like this furry baby sounds like a dream. Did you know that in their first month of life, kittens go straight into deep sleep, skipping over the drowsy phase. This is why we have so many adorable photos of kittens randomly falling asleep.
