How they sleep in funny positions...

[rosethecopycat]

I would like to see some pictures of how your cats sleep in funny positions.

Here's Snowy.

[Freckles]

Here's a picture of Jerry in the '60's. Was sitting up, then needed to nap.

This is the funniest position I've ever seen 2 cats asleep! I was so fortunate to get this pic, I still can't belive I managed. They are both in the dreamland... zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[rosethecopycat]

:D

That is WILD!
If I even lower my head for five seconds I get a head rush. How can they sleep like that? And why are they both doing it in the same way at the same time? Spooky!

LOL!! I agree - I wish I could find, copy and post one of the funniest pics I ever saw - but it's probably copywrited since it was on a calendar -
Two white kittens, in a cinderblock that was standing on end - one kitten in the top hole, head hanging over the endge, the other in the bottom hole, the butt hanging out - then they showed the other side of the block, yep! Butt hanging out on top, head sticking out on the bottom!! It was precious! Can't post the pic, but you all have good imaginations being cat people, so you can picture it mentally!!!!!!!;)

I think sleeping is for two or more cats like a yawn is for two or more people - contagious!!

Beats me, first I thought they were staring at something, but nope, sound asleep they were... :)

[lailamara]

Hope Bodhi doesn't have flatulance. Love Kasper and Kitty's pose. Too much catnip......maybe a catnip hang-overhttp://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid38/p48508f70b11fff3efb341f4e0e1c7a69/fd0f534c.jpg

Suddenly, when he least expected it, he fell asleep while walking through the living room. That's our GABE!

Well, what can I say, these two look so comfy. One more comfy than the other!

A pile of kittens. Graemer and Miley are the two hugging. Of course. Their littermate sister, Virginia, is to the right. The other furry things were Blue Abys from a different litter, being nursed by G & M's mom cat.

I think Casper & Kitty win this category hands down, but Graemer & MIley and all those kittens in a basket...how cute can you get?

This is of Ritzy and what I always think looks like a cat sucking its thumb, ....with that paw curled over the nose.

This is what we refer to as "kitty in the shoe" sleepy. We once had a black and white kitten (pre-ritzy) who would run crazy around the house, like kittens do, but she liked to play inside the work boots...she would dive in head first with just her little rear and tail sticking out, digging around for...who knows???

We were watching this once and all of a sudden, her backside just went limp and flopped over to one side...we thought, OH NO, she lost oxygen and passed out or died....
Nope, we gently turned the shoe over on its side and eased the kitten out, only to be greeted with a stretch and a purr, then right back to sleep.

So now, whenever we have a long day and are exhausted, we refer to it as "kitty in the shoe sleepy"...like you could just drop and sleep anywhere. I envy this in cats...wish it could be so simple for us.

[Cataholic]

Wow, GABE musta been really really tired!!! What do you make that poor boy do? Play all day???:D

[sasvermont]

All of my cats are capable of being wild and wooly one moment and sound asleep the next. I think this is known as cat napping. They do a power sleep for a short period of time. Actually, cats have very small hearts so sleeping is a favorite past time for them. I don't know about dogs.

Don't you just love all these photos? Seems as though every topic is requiring a photo of some sort.

I LOVE IT! I love seeing everyones' furry friends. I just know how much my three mean to me and it is fun to see that I am not the only one who spends way, way too much time with her pets and one who allows THEM to rule the roost.

Just wanted to comment on how great these pictures are>

[Tina]

Here is Ozzie's weirdest sleeping position...:rolleyes:

[krazyaboutkatz]

These pics are great. :) I don't really have any pics of my cats sleeping in weird positions. Here's a picture of Sunny.

Tubby & Peanut after passing out after a catnip binge.

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid35/pfab3dc7cd719aea4011c3e21f553da73/fd2f64df.jpg

Great pics everybody! Seems kittens end up in odd sleeping positions more often. Old guys and girls like T & P are usually asleep, so I don't get very many funny sleeping positions anymore. :( :)

And I agree that C & K get the prize on that one! That is just too funny!!! :D

[kohala]

Somewhere I have a pic of me and Grasshopper, both flat out on our backs on the daybed - I didn't even know Dadcat took the pic until he showed it to me!! We are in the exact same position, on our backs, all four paws spread eagled!! I've got to find it, even tho it's VERY unflattering!!

Ozzie does the best "liquid kitty" poses :)

And All Creatures, that picture with the cat pillow is STUNNING! even the same kitty pose as the pillow :)


T&P's mom - was Peanut "ousted" from the rug or does she just prefer the hardwood floor?

[rosethecopycat]

Oh My God!

That is a cat pillow! I thought it was a real cat!

Thanks Tuxluvr, for pointing that out.

I oughta get new glasses...

[ramanth]

I've got some great shots of Reebok sleeping in odd positions... need to find the pics.

But for now, here is Onneka. :)

I do have a few pictures of my cats sleeping.
Here's Narri, my male cat, very tired :)

[-Panther-]

Here's another one of him :D

[Former User]

Wow, Narri is a white copy of Casper, Casper sleeps exactly like Narri in that second pic.

No, that's where her catnip ended up. I think Tubby eats it, but Peanut just licks it so it ends up everywhere. :rolleyes:

It's not usual to see them sleeping so close to each other either. Amazing stuff that catnip. ;) :D

Whenever two or more of my cats are in identical positions we say "They're DOING THAT!" :D

After studying the wrong pic for the longest, deciding I was definitely going blind, I happened to go back up to the first pic, and realized the "cat" I thought you were talking about was the "pillow." ROFLMAO!!!!!

OHHHHHH! THAT's what everyone's talking about!!!! Great pillow; clever cat! Even cleverer photographer:cool: :D :cool: !!!!!

Yes, please, can we get our Finlandians to translate...what a cool language! I tried to find a translator on line somewhere but to no avail.... Lut, Niina, ?? Please help this mono-linguist learn a few words in another language :)

[tuxluvr]

The beauties are back...I just love those kitties, and can NEVER see too many pics :)

[All Creatures Great And Small]

Onpa outoa kirjoittaa englanniksi toiselle suomalaiselle
Okay, I found a Finnish translator online but it didn't translate all the words. I'll take a stab at it anyway - is it something about how it's weird to write in English also? I'm tantalized now; I must know the meaning of this phrase! ;)

[Efrat]

ok... so here are more ( I just needed an excuse...)

Tsoomi and Kfitzi

http://www.entermyworld.com/catslove/miscpv/gtsep00b1x1.jpg

Had enough? :D

[All Creatures Great And Small]

No, I don't think we could EVER have enough of these beautiful kitties! I love the picture where their heads are stacked - makes me wish I had multiple kitties so I could look at scenes like that every day!:)

Ok, she's not sleeping, but she's not awake either :D

[ramanth]

Not exactly a wierd position but it's odd for Chance to cuddle with any of the other cats. :D

Scooter is our tail-less wonder. :)

Yep, have to agree with that one. They are such beautiful kitties. I didn't realize Gucci had a white tummy. :)

And the one with Milki with his head against the bottle...Tubby sleeps like that all the time (without the bottle) and then as he gets deeper into his sleep his head goes down so he's resting his head on his nose - if you know what I mean. It's such a funny position that I call "Nose to the Grindstone." I'll have to see if I can get a picture of it one of these days. The problem is he always hears me coming and lifts his head and ruins the shot. :mad: :D

[Vermontcat]

These pictures are all great!
Here is a photo of my cat Samantha that I had posted not too long ago.
She has no other cats in the house to curl up with so she curls up into a "furball".

i am ashamed to admit this, but the first time eddie curled up into a position where i could not see his head...i panicked, checked his rear end, and for a moment, thought he broke his neck.

needless to say i checked the other end and found that he was o.k.....

She looks just like my Abe. What a joy to be able to see all different kinds of furbabies. (You can tell I dearly Love Cats of All kinds colors and size.

katma sutra?

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

I got a picture of Tubby with his nose to the grindstone. ;) Turned out kinda dark, so I hope you can see how he sleeps on his nose. Seems rather uncomfortable, but he will sleep this way for hours. :rolleyes: :D
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid39/p80cfdc4b55b6e0e2a65a1dddc3ab846f/fd07d9a7.jpg

Oh, and you may have noticed quite a few pictures of Tubby on this one particular chair. What can I say, this is his most favorite spot in the world except when he's laying next to me. :)

[rosethecopycat]

My previous cat Milo, RIP at RB,
use to sleep face down all the time. I only have snapshots of him, I will ask my husband to scan some in. And of my very first cat too! Qat. RIP at RB. You all won't believe that markings on this Tuxie!

This may take some time. I never see my husband.
:( ( I had a dream last night and I forgot his name:eek: )

As usual: this could be Filou.
I wish I had a tail which I cut put over my nose when I go sleeping. It looks so absolutely comfy.

Sleeping cats ??Since Maya and Inka are sleeping away half of the day , I have plenty of those pics ..!
Watch Inka's tail:D :D
