Cat Naps

I suspect cats nap lots because of the need to conserve energy. They are hunters and predators, so like a Cheetah, they likely sleep most of the time, in order to have those bursts of energy needed to chase down prey.

Of course, the modern housecat has probably forgotten about the hunting aspect of their lives, so the sleeping is simply their way of claiming every piece of floor and furniture in the house. I mean, there are a lot of chairs and couches, so they need to sleep a lot!

If you are unfortunate, you may wake the poor cat up. They are never impressed. I imagine that right after this picture, she took off, and began racing up and down the hallway as fast as she can go... I like chasing her back and forth. Keeps us both in shape :D

Boy she looks unimpressed...
