Its well-known that cats love their sleep. After all, they dont call it a cat nap for nothing!
Your bed may not be the place of rest and relaxation that youd hoped for, but if youre a cat lover, youll put up with almost anything just to be able to cuddle up with your furry friend.
Take a look at the infographic below for some of the pros and cons of sleeping with your cat. These funny feline sleeping habits are sure to make you laugh. Global Animal

I’m seeing a blank page.
Takes time to load.
I never get irritated, but the wife does. Only thing bugs me is our big Siamese treating me as a doormat leaping over to get to the wife at night. Especially when he leaps short and lands on my nutz.
Being a lot longer of leg than the wife, I often get leg warmers restricting my ability to roll about. No big deal, decades of training have me equipped for that.
The current Siamese occasionally decides he needs increased cuddles and marches about my head at 0400 as a signal to lift the covers. He then proceeds to get under, curl up, purr, and give me love nips on the forearm.
No big deal, but the wife absolutely refuses to do that. She cannot go back to sleep, to me, it is a sleeping pill.
“According to research, 53 percent of dog guardians...”
Good Grief! “Dog guardians”?
Maybe I’ve been mistaken all these years, but we feed the mutt to GUARD US, not the other way round. The whole world is bonkers.
In my house, I’m the cat bed.
But cats are not nocturnal, they are crepuscular, most active at dawn and dusk. As long as you don’t try sleeping in past dawn there’s not really a problem with a mismatch in human and feline sleep schedules. Our cats sleep almost all night and almost all day!
Beautiful cat!
I love having my kitty sleep beside me! There’s only 2 problems:
1: I toss, turn, and kick in my sleep.
2: My bedroom is the room where the potted plants hide, because it’s the only room where they’re safe from the cat.
On occasion, Kitty and I take naps together on the couch, but those are rare.
Every one of them are true. Now multiply that x5 in OUR house. LOL
I am usually up and about before them. When they come in to the office and bug me to feed them around 0830 or so, I know the outside kittehs are waiting for breakfast as well, 99% of the time.
They are nocturnal, but seem to have internal clocks that synch with humans especially with feeding times.
I am a cat person, my wife is a dog lover ... therefore we own a dog. LOL! That’s how you keep a marriage going for 42 years. Nuff said.
That’s a great picture
A few months ago, I got my kitties a heated cat bed, since they're getting old and I keep the house colder than I used to. They still sleep with me some of the time, but they spend a lot of time in their own bed, too. It's the only item of cat furniture I've bought them that they actually use.
I actually stole that pic on post 6 from Google. Post 8 is my little Jones. It’s the same kind of cat, though. The Jonesy cuddlecutie. The only thing my Dad left me before he died.
That’s not a bad idea.
Cute kitties, too.
