Sleepy Cats Pawsing Caturday Wherever They Are for a Much-Needed Snooze

Saturday is finally here, which means it's time to cancel your plans, find the comfiest spot in the house, and take some serious sleeping advice from the cats.

Nobody knows how to snooze quite like a feline. Cats can fall asleep pretty much anywhere, and apparently comfort is completely optional. Give them a soft bed specifically purchased for their naps and they'll ignore it in favor of sleeping upside down with their head hanging off the couch.

Then come the positions that make you wonder whether cats actually have bones. Legs are sticking in opposite directions, paws are folded underneath bodies, and heads are twisted at angles that would send any hooman straight to the chiropractor. Somehow, they wake up completely refreshed while we hurt our necks because we used the wrong pillow.

Saturday is the purrfect day to embrace that feline approach to life. There are no alarms to worry about, nowhere important to be, and absolutely no reason you can't spend an extra few hours curled up under the blankets. Your cat certainly isn't going to judge you. They've probably already squeezed in three naps before you even considered getting out of bed.

Of course, kitties aren't particularly concerned with keeping their weekend snoozing to the bedroom. A sink works. So does a cardboard box, the back of the couch, a windowsill, or one tiny corner of a giant mattress. If they can somehow fold themselves onto it, it counts as a bed.

We may never understand how these positions qualify as comfortable, but cats clearly know something about relaxation that we don't.

So clear your schedule, fluff your pillows, and follow the feline example.

Saturday is for snoozing, and these sleepy cattos are taking that responsibility very seriously.

Sweet dreams

This kitty has officially decided that whatever was happening today can wait until after nap time. Once those eyes close and the paws get tucked in, there’s absolutely no getting back to business. We can’t even blame them. A cozy spot, a quiet afternoon, and nowhere important to be sounds like the purrfect way to spend a Caturday. The only question is whether this will be a quick catnap or one of those naps that somehow lasts until dinner.

Snooze with a view

via hcocob
Now this is what we call a snooze with a view. Why settle for an ordinary cat bed when you can curl up somewhere with scenery to enjoy between naps? Not that this kitty is doing much sightseeing with those eyes closed, but at least they picked a prime spot before drifting off. We fully support choosing your nap location based on the vibes alone. A comfy place to curl up, a nice view, and absolutely nothing on the schedule sounds like the purrfect Caturday.

Too tired to care

via @Cheetah Experience
Cats have truly mastered the ability to sleep anytime, anywhere, and in absolutely any position. It doesn’t matter if they’re on a soft bed, balanced on the edge of a couch, curled up inside a box, or somehow snoozing somewhere that doesn’t look remotely comfortable. When a kitty decides it’s nap time, nothing is getting in their way. We wish we had that talent. Imagine being able to close your eyes anywhere and immediately drift off without a single care in the world.
