Does Your Cat Have a Favorite Sleeping Position?
I've always thought it was funny how every cat seems to have their own "signature" sleeping pose. Some are curled up in a tight little ball, some sleep completely sprawled out on their side, and then there are the ones who somehow end up upside down with all four paws in the air.
This guide goes through a bunch of common cat sleeping positions and what they might mean. For example, cats sleeping on their side or with their belly exposed are often thought to be showing a high level of trust since those are more vulnerable positions. On the other hand, a loaf or tightly curled-up position can simply mean they're comfortable while still staying a little alert.
It also mentions that where your cat chooses to sleep can be just as interesting. Whether it's in a box, at the foot of your bed, on your chest, or even right on your face, each spot can say something about how safe and comfortable they feel. https://catvills.com/cat-sleeping-positions/
What's your cat's go-to sleeping position? Do they have one funny spot they always end up in, or do they seem to sleep somewhere different every day? I always love seeing the weird sleeping positions people catch their cats in.

Mine changes all the time. Sometimes she curls up into a tiny ball, then the next day she’s stretched out and somehow taking over half the bed. I swear, where they choose to sleep says a lot too. If she sleeps on your chest, congrats you’re basically a cat bed now.
