21 Purrecious Pictures of Cats Showing Off the Fine Art of the Lazy Sploot

Sploot alert! When a cat flops down like a fuzzy pancake with their little back legs kicked out like they're about to launch into a jazz split — that, my friend, is peak sploot.

Why do they do it? Who knows. Who cares. All that matters is there's suddenly a long, leggy loaf sprawled across the kitchen floor like they pay rent and own the place. 

One minute they're zooming at 100 miles per hour, the next they're fully melted into the ground like a scoop of tabby sherbet. It's the ultimate drama queen move. "Oh, me? I'm just exhausted from knocking your water glass off the table for the third time. Let me just… collapse gracefully."

Some cats go for the full sploot, legs behind like furry baguettes. Others give us a lazy half-sploot, one drumstick tucked in, the other out like they forgot what they were doing halfway through. Either way, 10/10. Would admire again.

Sploot on, kitties. The floor is your stage, and your beans are the show.
