You can learn a lot about your cat's health and mood by the way it sleeps.
We'll tell you what positions cats sleep in most often and what they mean.
Ball of Balls
Cats like to sleep curled up because it helps them retain heat and expend less energy.
In addition, by curling up into a ball, the cat protects its internal organs.
This pose indicates that the cat is either cold or anxious.
Loaf
If a cat sleeps on its stomach with its front paws tucked in, it means that it is alert and ready to repel a threat at any moment.
This posture may be a reaction to a change in the environment.
On the side
When a cat sleeps on its side, it is relaxed and feels completely safe.
It is in this position that cats sleep and dream most soundly.
On the back
If a cat sleeps with its belly open, it trusts its owner infinitely.
