So, kitties love to sleep with their owners, but why do they choose the weird and wonderful positions?
I’ve heard pet parents complain about everything from sleeping on your face to sleeping with their back towards you.
As always, there is a reason behind the strange things your cat does. Once you hear what they are, you’ll probably be a lot more patient and indulgent with your whiskery companion.
Your head has a strong scent that appeals to the animal. Maybe it’s your shampoo or your unique smell, but your cat associates that with you and wants to be as close as possible.
The owner’s chest is another popular naptime spot for felines. This is mostly because this is where they can feel our breathing and heartbeat.
Turning his back to you means that your pet trusts you (he doesn’t need to “keep an eye on you”). To interpret further, this behavior may indicate that your cat will protect you.
By facing outward, he will be on guard duty for any incoming dangers.
