Your Cat’s Sleeping Position Can Tell You What They’re Thinking

A cat that’s curled up with their tail in a graceful swoop around their body and their head tucked in toward their chest is doing their best to conserve body heat. They’re also protecting their vulnerable organs. Your cat’s wild cousins do it, and it’s a natural instinct even the most pampered house cat can’t suppress.

Your cat may not be worried about a rival animal sneaking up on them in their sleep, but they could be protecting their jellybean toes from prodding fingers. A curled up cat usually wants to be left alone.
