CAT NAP
The famous Catnap; unlike dogs or humans, cats can spend many
hours sleeping relatively lightly.
Cats spend a great deal of their time sleeping. The average cat sleeps
for 13-18 hours a day.
The exact number can change according to the
cat's age and personality. Cats that spend the day alone at home
tend to sleep throughout the day.
Newborn kittens spend most of
their time sleeping. In fact, this is nature's way to make sure that
the kittens do not wander out of the nest, or make noise that might
attract predators while the mother cat is away.
As the weeks pass,
the kittens' sleeping hours gradually change to match those of the
adults.
Being nocturnal predators, cats tend to sleep during the
day and stay awake at night. Cats can spend many hours sleeping
relatively lightly.

If you try to wake a cat which is sleeping it
can go immediately from being in a deep sleep to being fully awake
in a matter of seconds. You can often see cats sitting with their
eyes half closed, or even wide open, enjoying a short nap.

Cats look for a sleeping place that feels safe and has the right
temperature.
During hot summer days, they will look for high shaded
sleeping nooks.
In the winter, most cats will look for a spot of
warm sunshine or a nearby heater.
The temperature also effects the
cat's sleeping position. When cold, cats tend to curl and put their
face between their paws to reduce body heat loss.
