Monday meowrnings are the purrfect time for cuddling your cats. Your alarm goes off, you groggily wake up and feel your cat's fluffy body curled up against yours. You hug them closer, and realize you can't find their head. After rubbing the cobwebs from your eyes, you see that they are relaxing in the shape of a twisty-bobcat-pretzel. If they can manage to be comfy like that, then we can stay in bed for a few minutes longer, right?

One of the most hissterical parts of being a cat owner is finding your cat sleeping (or even relaxing) in pawsitions that are not hoomanly pawssible to relax in. It's a running joke in the cat community that all of our cats come in both liquid and solid states, meaning that they can randomly become thick, normal objects to lift, or basically just a sack of bones and fluids. In their liquid state, we often say that they have noodles for bones because their bones seem to bend in any direction without any resistance. The only bad part is you don't get to choose when your cat is in its liquid or solid state, it's some sort of inner meowchanism that our hooman brains can't comprehend.

Because of the fluid state of our felines, we often find them looking like we didn't read the instructions properly when assembling them. More than that, they look like a hooman chiropractor's nightmare. Their spines are purrfectly flexible, with nearly double the number of vertebrae than we hoomans have. Even though it's relaxing for them, it can be slightly stressful for us. When you can't find your cat's head and can only see limbs, you can't help but think the worst for a few seconds.

There may be endless amounts of cat pictures on the internet, but these one below of flexible felines relaxing in hissterical pawsitions make us want to call our chiropractor, and then get back into bed. It's Monday meowrning, and we don't really need another excuse to stay in bed, but we'll take this one!
