10 Fun Facts About Cats' Sleeping Habits

A cat’s sleeping patterns greatly differ from a human’s. Cats love getting up before the sun has even risen (sometimes waking you up in the process), just to sleep all day! But there are more noteworthy facts about cats and sleep that you probably didn’t know.

During the lockdown, I adopted an awesome Senior cat that wrapped herself around my head at night. Her purrs, delivered directly into my brain, were better than any sleeping pills on the market.

My baby used to sleep most deeply snuggled next to me, usually under the covers. She stretched out on her side but always with her belly facing me. The trust she put in me is honestly the most humbling and incredible thing I can imagine.

My first cat was a white Persian. Saw the ad in the paper and picked him up during a bad Winter storm. Once at my house he settled in in my bedroom. I had a headache from the storm and hoped the headache would go away with some sleep.After 5 minutes he eased himself to the top of my head and started purring loudly. I thought he was sick and his lungs were making that noise. Not realizing it was a purr. Headache was history. The 15 years I had him he always sensed when I needed his nurturing. As to snoring- yes he snored and so did I. He would wake me when I was too loud by sticking a paw in my mouth! ha ha

My cat Luke had nightmares He had a bad past before I adopted him
He would stir in his sleep and sometimes cry out with a meow. I would wake him up and cuddle him. The nightmares diminished as he spent time with me

[michellecoleman]

My Kitty used to literally kick me in her sleep; I imagine she was dreaming about pouncing on little defenseless furry things.
She rarely snored but there was one time she was sleeping on top of me and woke me up by snoring directly in my ear.
I lost her just over a month ago and the little memories help.

My BP (best pet) snores ALL the time😂 she is a regular old tabby. 15 yr old. Didn’t always snore, only in the past 5 years or so. And she sleeps A LOT

[doomedsoul]

My Tortie is generally very independent and naps in random spots throughout the day. But when she actually needs deep sleep she has to be in my armpit and gets upset if im not in bed yet or im at work.

Our cat named "Big Kitty" would sleep right by our heads and would snore so loud that he sounded like a mini lawnmower! Also when he would go for vet checkups, he would stretch out and lounge around in the office as if he were the boss and owned the place! Everyone loved him! 🐱😻

[JeneenRose-Osborne]

I woke up last night around 1:30 with 3 cats cuddled up against me. 😂 I don’t mind their presence but it does prevent me from rearranging if I’m hurting. 🤷‍♀️

[KenMabie]

I've seen my cats twitch their feet a lot in their sleep

[liamseth]

💛💛💛💛💫👑 ...I love cats. I can be living in any part on this planet I will always want to have a cat with me. Home stay much better with pets mainly cats!

[terfalicious]

My cat Raleigh would always sleep on his back - all 22lbs of him! He wasn't fat - just a huge, long fluffy boy. He also liked to sleep on my head sometimes. I miss him terribly 😭

[XenonTetrafluoride]

As far as I can tell, my cat dreams about snacking, playing with toys, cuddling (she’ll be on her back and kneading the air like so many biscuits), and jumping. Just based on those little movements in her sleep.

Glad to have found this channel. New kitty owner here and you've given me a lot of insights into my furry four-legged friend. Because of your videos, my new kitty's anxiety has dropped enough that he's eating, sleeping and playing with his new environment. I was worried I'd have to take him to the vet on day three of ownership. Turns out, his things were just not in a "happy kitty" environment. Tip for other new cat owners : My cat was freaked out by the hum of the fridge and wouldn't eat or drink because he didn't want to be so close to it. Moving his dishes into my office "where I spend most of my day" has him eating and drinking!

I love it when I'm watching TV and my cat curls up and sleeps on my belly after kneeding me plenty first of course and having a good wash.she twitches her paws a bit and her whiskers twitch quite a bit when she is fast asleep sometimes rolling over onto her back.she always gets so relaxed she even sleeps behind my head on the pillow on my bed most nights.And wants her face rubs when I wake up.Sometimes when I wake up I feel her whiskers tickling my face and hear loud purring as she waits for her morning fuss.A life without my baby girl would be no life at all I love her so much she gives me a loving boost to get up in the morning she is so precious 💕

My cats have also made moaning noises like they’re about to fight another cat.

[annegillespie]

😻🤗 Very good info regarding sleeping 😴 😻😸😺😺

[tomascostanzo]

My parents' cat also makes noises with her nose when she's sleeping. I often think it's their way of snoring.

[ameliawarfield]

My cat Tiger-J snores a little. He likes to sleep on my bed.
