“To Sleep: Perchance to Dream”

Hamlet, Act III, Scene I

Yesterday we were all excited (and relieved!) to learn of TomCat’s securing his new Cat Box, with the move planned in about two weeks.

Over the years, TC has shared with us the travails at his other domiciles of inability to maintain a comfortable environment. It seemed to always be too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter. He was never able to obtain a Goldilocks climate of “Just Right”.

Understandably, this has wreaked havoc with his ability to enjoy a good night’s sleep. But from his updates, it sounds like the new Madrona Apartments will provide the relief needed!

This is reassuring news, because we all know that Cats are known for their ability to sleep in any place and any position – and I’m here to provide proof.

It’s summer – so a grill is a great spot to catch a few winks

And we all know there is NO box too small that it won’t accommodate a (determined) critter.

Obviously a cat-lover had a hand in designing this cup holder

This beat-up old gym shoe might have had an “olfactory factor” adding to this guy’s snooze

This is definitely a prickly location

And who among us hasn’t sat in a classroom with a teacher who has had the same effect on us?

“No, really … I’m exercising!”

“VROOOOMMMM!”

I think this one is dreaming of Thanksgiving drumsticks

The next two prove that there are really FOUR different states of matter: Solid, Liquid, Gas and Cat

And while we’re talking science, who knew cats could defy gravity?

Monorail Cat

“Rubber Ducky, You’re the One …”

“Tell her to cut down on the bleach”

“Geez … this is getting old.  Hasn’t she ever heard of Swifter?”

There’s celebrating, and then there’s CELEBRATING!

But there could also be a gutter (quite lieterally) with your name on it!

    • It is indeed a happy occasion, and I can – I suspect we all can – testify to the positive effect that appropriate atmospheric temperature can have on sleep.

      I can’t, though, testify about the effect of those positions on the sleep of those cats.  Except that, yeah, they do do that.

      Besides making cats into their own state of matter, it’s been said that God was a little overworked the day he created kittens, so to save time, he gave them just two settings, “off” and “crazy.”

      (BTW, can we trust that no news is good news about the ultrasound you mentioned having last week?)

      • WRT my US, I’m in the 99% range that it’s nothing.  But I’ve not heard from my PCP yet.

        Having read the report, I’m not losing a wink of sleep over it. 

        (But as a pediatrician, I’m a tad more than a little bit out of my age-range of expertise.)

  2. Cats sure can find the darnedest places to sleep – and the darnedest sleeping positions!

  3. Really like all of the photos. So cute. 
    Must be so nice that cats can sleep in any type of conditions. I wish I could.
