I thought it would be fun to see how our cats sleep
Dante sleeps in positions that would put me into the hospital!

Aw, lalilamara, that picture of Maya and Bodhi is so sweet!! They look like they just couldn't be happier.
Here's Rizzo, trying to tell me that I need to buy him a bigger kitty condo:

OMG I'm in cat heaven. Nothing and I mean, NOTHING is cuter than sleeping cats. The positions they can get into would send me in traction if I tried it and their sweet angelic faces, are oh sooo adorable.
Here are a few of mine:
This is my Mooky at 9 months old. He opened his eyes when I came into the room.
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid82/p8984bbfb906e7b99946b8141f2f5209f/fae8c31f.jpg

http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid82/p1e362a7298550a802f3124ea0a30b0ef/fae8c32a.jpg
This is my RB C-Fer.

Pouncer's the king of stretched-out sleeping, but I love when he's a tortlelini!

When Sam and Daisy were little, they used to sleep all cuddled together.
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid66/pca914fa92e8866f8dbcec5a952dd5e45/fbde771e.jpg
Samantha is quite partial to sleeping on laps these days
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid72/p4adda165b5e6643c80d6437d6921b372/fb7fa33e.jpg
and cuddling into her mummy in bed.
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid72/pb376a00cfc350db9436823a08d6310ab/fb7fa344.jpg
Daisy likes to sleep in places that look hideously uncomfortable

Thank you guster girl. That's what attracted me to Chipper was his markings. That and the fact that he reached his paw out to me.:)
C-Fer's name came into effect when my hubby had a dog named D-fer....D for dog and we had a turtle named T-Fer....T for turtle and C-Fer...yup that's right....C for cat...Hence the name C-Fer.
SIRRABED, I think your "kitty sandwich" is soooooo adorable. I have never seen kitties sleep like that before. That beats all in my books.
BARBARA, I have seen the Tortellini before but never the Pretzel. That is so cute.

This is our little blind kitten, Pippin. He's a champion lounger. Notice he's all spread out. This is so he can take up as much of the bed as possible and leave very little for the other 4 cats we have. This is also about the only time his little tail isn't curled up over his back like a husky tail. He's totally relaxed!

And Peanut's new favorite spot. She sits up here every night now when I'm doing homework. I think she likes the heat from the lamp so I always tell her she's coming for her time under the heat lamp. ;)

He tends to sleep with his head upright and eyes open just a little bit - just so he does not miss any action!!

It still works, just a little different.
Abys are the best tortellinis. Sorry, Nakita ... and the Russian Blues of course ;)

This is for Berry...
*RUB*RUB*RUB*
Did you like that Berry?? LOVE those furry bellies! I would have buried my face in that belly but not sure if I would have lost some skin:D

Yes, naturally he would like it very much. And you wouldn't loose any skin because he wants to be rubbed all day long.

That's a world-champion fluffy belly for sure!!! You say that's Berry's favorite sleeping position? That means you get to see that wonderful furry underside all the time, and your house must truly be full of joy and cat hair! (which are, of course, closely related!) ;) :D
