Where is your kitty now? If you’re reading this content on a laptop or tablet, there’s a strong possibility it’s trying to snuggle right on top of the screen. If Fluffy isn’t around, it’s probably dreaming or waking up from their ninth cat sleep of the day. Cats are known for their love of the couch, but there’s more to this luxury than meets the eye. Do you have any idea that cats sleep for 16 to 20 hours per day on average?

The first thing to know about cats is that they are most active between dusk and dawn. It means they sleep most of the day and become active when the sun is down. If you’re taking a new feline home for the first time, this might be pretty shocking. Your cat will investigate and get into mischief right away, generally when you are fast asleep! Your cat, on the other hand, will be winding down for a full day of slumber as soon as the rest of the world wakes up for action.
