Everyone knows cats are adorable. But sleeping cats take it to the next level. They’re one of the more flexible animals in the animal kingdom, so they don’t mind taking a nap anywhere. And we mean anywhere. That makes for some hilariously cute pics.
Here are some of our favorites:
#1 A not so classic game of cat and mouse
Working hard or hardly working? This cat seems to really look up to the character he’s sleeping on. Maybe we’ll get this guy some lasagna when he wakes up.
This cat isn’t just hanging out. She looks like she’s hanging on with everything she’s got, but in her sleep. Can humans do that?
#3 Kitty catching a breeze
This doesn’t exactly look like the most comfortable place to sleep. Then again, when you need fresh air, you need fresh air. Hopefully the wind doesn’t blow him over.
#4 One man’s trash is another man’s treasure
We’ll never know why this cat chose the garbage over the very comfy looking kitty bed right next door. But one thing’s for sure, she certainly has aspirations of being a raccoon one day.
This cat looks super comfy sleeping on top of this cage, so it’s a good thing he never has to sleep inside it. Although, he’d probably be able to slide through those bars anyways.
#6 Current mood: This cat
It’s definitely not rare for a human to get home, throw themselves down on the couch and doze off after a long day. But this cat? This cat looks like he’s had a particularly rough day.
This must be kind of like what fish see at aquariums when kids press their faces against the glass. Except this time it’s a cat. And he’s sleeping. And there’s no aquarium.
#8 This town isn’t big enough for the two of us
We’ve all heard of cats who think they’re people, or even cats who think they’re dogs. But cats who think they’re lizards? The tank does look pretty cozy, though.
#9 When cats become their owners
Is this man taking a cat nap, or is this cat taking a man nap? Sometimes, we just can’t help but take on the characteristics of our pets.
#10 A cure for the common cold?
Imagine having a cold and reaching for the tissues only to find that they’ve been replaced by your kitten. You might feel better knowing your cat is by your side, but, unfortunately, you’ll probably still have a runny nose.
#11 These boots were made for napping
Ever put on a boot so comfy you wish you could just crawl inside it and have a snooze? Honestly, me neither. But it looks like this kitten is in complete bliss.
You can really see the struggle in this one, right up until the final moment where the cat was so tired that she just said, “Oh well, this will do.”
#13 This house cat is more like a yard cat
When someone falls asleep in the backyard on a summer day, people assume they’ve had a few too many. But when a cat does it, it’s adorable. What gives?
#14 Introducing the acro-cat
Safety net or no safety net, this probably wasn’t the best place to catch some sleep. Then again, cats always land on their feet.
#15 A Cat? A rabbit? A cat-rabbit?
This might be an optical illusion, but the way this cat fell asleep looks an awful lot like a crouching rabbit. You have to wonder if she did it purposely.
There are a lot of fun home decor options when it comes to dressing up your windowsills. Like potted plants. Or pictures. Or even fresh herbs. Bet you never thought of a sleeping cat.
#17 But isn’t this list about cats?
If you look really closely, you might notice that this isn’t just a photo of a dog. It’s a photo of a kitten using a dog as a blanket. Weighted blankets may be in style, but this seems like a little much.
Hopefully Amazon never sells cats. But if they ever do, it might just look like this sleeping kitty who made a bed out of a box.
#19 A tabletop piece of art
Is it making anyone else anxious that this bowl is so unnervingly close to the edge of the table? Because clearly it isn’t bothering this little guy. Ww would love to know how he got out, though.
We’re not really sure if the owners positioned them like this, or if they actually fell asleep like this, but it really doesn’t matter because it’s darn cute. Either way, this looks like a pretty decent way to hit the hay.
#21 Nothing like a good stretch
It’s always a good idea to stretch out in the morning when you wake up, and in the evening before you go to bed, except this cat looks like she forgot to go to bed.
Hanging out on the hammock
This cat is clearly hogging the hammock on a day when his owner could seriously use it. On the other hand, how could you possibly wake up a face like that?
It’s unclear if this cat is actually sleeping, or if he’s in a deep state of relaxation after a massage. One thing is for sure – we hope he has benefits because massages can get pricey.
Clearly, this kitten didn’t get the memo about how to fall asleep in a chair, but it actually looks like he’s really cozy up there. Maybe he’s onto something. Maybe we’re the crazy ones.
Do we think that this lady placed the cat on her head before going to sleep? Or do we think the cat nestled in after she turned in? It’s hard to say. But this is obviously a very special friendship.
Warning: May make a better bed than a video game. Sleeping cat not included. Batteries sold separately. Adult assembly required.
#27 Fish are friends, not food
Awake or asleep, cats sure do like their fish. Let’s hope this cat is dreaming of a world where fish and cats can coexist in peace.
#28 “Excuse me, can I get a to-go bag for this?”
If taking your house cat for a walk feels weird, then fear not! Introducing the Carry-Away Cat – a bag that lets you carry around your kitty in style. On second thought, don’t do that.
#29 Writer’s block is real
It’s better to fall asleep at the computer than to fall asleep at the wheel. Unless you’re a cat, in which case both of those situations are highly unlikely (but obviously possible).
#30 Good night, sleep tight
Some kids would do anything to not have to go to bed. It looks like some cats are just as stubborn.
#31 This house is a cat’s house
These dogs may be bigger in size, but even they know never to mess with a sleeping cat. Chances are they’ve been waiting to go down those stairs for hours.
Everyone has fallen asleep in the backseat of a car before, but can anyone really say they’ve fallen asleep on the hood of a car? This cat is a trailblazer and doesn’t even know it.
If a cat falls asleep in a planter, will it grow a cat tree? Likely not, but either way it’s adorable to see this kitty try. Those flowers definitely didn’t stand a chance.
This cat tree doesn’t look terribly comfortable, but this cat was obviously exhausted enough to fall asleep just about anywhere. Hopefully, he won’t have to go through hoops to get himself out.
This cat has to be a little bit nuts to fall asleep a) like this, and b) in a wicker basket. As humans, many of us can hardly sit in a wicker chair, never mind sleeping in one.
#36 All the beds and couches were taken
This cat is obviously one that loves adventure and isn’t very high-maintenance, otherwise she maybe would have chosen somewhere more convenient to relax.
#37 Big spoon, little spoon
Who knew that cats cuddle? The tile they’re lying on certainly doesn’t look very comfortable. Hopefully, they’re keeping each other cozy.
There’s nothing quite like clean sheets or clean laundry if you’re a cat. Hopefully, this little guy doesn’t shed too much.
This house cat is one with nature. This, of course, might be quite a conundrum for her owner.
It’s amazing what you can find in the sofa: spare change, a hair clip, an old button, a… sleeping cat? This little tiger looks snug as a bug behind the cushion.
#41 Things are really heating up
This little fella looks content with his existence. Good thing he’s able to warm up in the middle of that winter wonderland.
This 5-week old kitten sleeping between two doors probably couldn’t decide on whether he should nap inside or outside.
#43 How about a back scratch?
These sleeping cats sure do know how to take care of each other, or at least they look like they do.
It’s scary to lose a pet, unless you find them adorably nestled under a heap of blankets. Then, it’s just adorable.
#45 Make yourself right at home
Cats show affection in interesting ways. In this case, this cat chose to show his owner how much he loves her by sitting on her face.
Cats may be able to fall asleep anywhere and yet one of the weirder places for them to fall asleep is probably in a bed. So civilized!
#47 There’s nothing worse than cold feet
When there’s a chill in the air and snow on the ground, no creature on the planet can resist the warmth of a fireplace, not even a kitten. Don’t you wish you were as warm and cozy as this little guy?
When people want a little warmth while they sleep, they might throw on an extra blanket. This little guy chose a heater.
#49 Never leave you cat out to dry
A human might look at this and think, “this is a good place to dry my clothes.” But a cat might look at it and think, “this is where I’m going to fall asleep.”
It’s hard to get the family together for a nice portrait. It’s too bad that all of their eyes are closed.
#51 Cats don’t just grow on trees
It’s nice when animals show real concern for the environment, like this cat. You could say she’s a real appreciator of nature.
#52 Twin meals, twin naps
It’s easy sometimes to get too into your food. For example, check out these cats who literally got into their food and then fell asleep.
To all of the people that say cats and dogs don’t like each other: how do you explain this picture? These two look like they haven’t slept apart in years.
You don’t have to be a wine connoisseur to know that this is adorable. How is this even possible??
#55 Rest, relax, and recharge
It looks like this kitten found the spot he was looking for to cuddle up and take a snooze.
This cat with her head buried in her hands looks like she’s at the tailend of an embarrassing moment. However, we’re pretty sure she’s just sleeping.
#57 What yoga pose is this?
We all know that cats are super flexible, but even an expert in yoga wouldn’t sleep like this.
#58 A little privacy please?
Clearly this owner doesn’t mind company in the restroom, because this kitten appears to have made it his bedroom.
If cats are made to clean themselves, then naturally a sink would have no purpose other than sleep.
If you’ve ever binge-watched your favorite show until you literally passed out, you can relate to this kitten’s struggle.
Some kittens are so adorable that you just want to put them in your pocket and take them home with you. It looks like this kitten fell asleep on the way.
Hopefully this door never closes, otherwise this cat is in for a rude awakening. For now, we’ll let him snooze it off.
#63 Unlikely cuddle buddies
We’ve all seen a lot of cats cuddling together, and maybe even dogs cuddling together, but nothing is as heartbreakingly adorable as a cat and dog snuggling up with each other.
We’re not saying who is or who isn’t in the wrong here, but it definitely looks like the cat on the right took over nap time pretty abruptly.
#65 The contortionist cat nap
This is simply another stunning feat in cat gymnastics. The most amazing part isn’t just the position – it’s the ability to fall asleep in it. Bravo, kitty.
#66 Once you see it, you can’t unsee it
Why are we showing you what looks like a shelf in a college dorm? Well, if you look really closely, you’ll notice that a cat has chosen to hide away from the world here while she naps.
Some days, it’s unforgivingly hot outside and there’s seemingly nowhere to escape from the sun. Luckily for this kitty, he can fit himself just about anywhere to find shade.
The last place we would look for a cat is in the barbeque. Then again, cats literally have no fear, so you never know.
#69 Everyone needs a teddy bear
Some kids can’t sleep without their stuffed animals. It looks like these cats are in the same boat.
Hours of playing on scratchers and chasing sticks is enough to tucker a cat out. This little guy is going to sleep well tonight.
An older cat might have fallen asleep on the table, or quite frankly, even the ceiling fan above it. This little kitten could only make it to the table legs.
Either this cat was so sleepy she could fall asleep anywhere, or she severely misses the tree that used to be here. We’re going with the first probability.
#73 They must have rehearsed this
These two cats look like two stone lions you might see outside an old library or government building. This is a very regal and artful way to catch up on sleep.
It’s tough to say how much gardening this cat did before completely passing out, but it looks like a very rewarding nap.
#75 A game of hide and sleep
Ready or not, here I come! This snoozing kitty might not be so hard to find.
