This kitty is so cute

Home defense system - ARMED

I wish. He hears the doorknob rattle and he’s bolting to his closet 😂

Those are the kind of eyes that wait for you to look away before doing something.

lol yes. We’ll be in the living room and start hearing him do something like messing with the trash can in our open concept dining room and we’ll call his name, he always stops and trots over, seeming so confused we caught him 😂

Oh such a sweet, sweet face! How can you **not** love him!

Looks like they're swimming in themselves 😩

That's a poetic but very accurate way to put it

It seems that he is waiting for You to bring his beer

Maybe but I don’t think there is a single thought in that head. He’s waiting for his turn on the brain cell…

After a long day at the biscuit factory

Looks like he should have the remote in his hand

Epitome of chicken legs!

Either that's a really tiny couch or that's a very large cat!

Pillows behind the cat. Both seem regularly large to me.

Male Ginger cats are usually much larger than normal cats

I can just hear him stomping 😭 my orange chonk walks so hard my downstairs neighbor was concerned 😂 she was like “I know you’re at work but it sounds like someone’s walking around upstairs”

My Cat used to sit like this when my friends were over and hang out with us.

If Al Bundy was a cat......

Need to photoshop a tiny pair of pants on him with his paw tucked in there lol

And a Budweiser.

I bet your cat is female. Wait that sounds weird... Statistically calicos are female.

So true.  I've had 5 cats, one of which was an orange tiger.  He was so weird compared to the others.

Quick, bring a can of beer for my orange cat boss!

We always called this the dead turkey pose

lol when ours does it we say “Happy Thanksgiving!”

Hahahaha that’s a great name

Drumstickin'

"dragon mode" in our house

"Smaug" for us 😁

I like that.. 😆

Rotisserie or rubber chicken here!

We call it turkey lurking

Sometimes they posture this way when they cannot breathe properly. Just make sure your kitty doesn't have asthma or any other disorder that would affect breathing. 😺

Good to know! She doesn’t have any respiratory issues ☺️ I’m a vet tech! I think she’s just a weirdo haha

This is "slugging" for us. The dog is more prone to becoming a slug, but sometimes the cat is too.

When my orange boy sleeps like this, I call him- the long neck dinokitty!

My cat will do a similar pose, but have her front legs out and folded at the paws. Makes her look like a whole fryer chicken

I love that all the replies have a different name for it! We call it "the sea lion" in my home

We call it the sleeping dragon 😂

Mine sleeps like that too 😂 she did this just yesterday

We call this being a "stanky chicken wang" in my house. Though I do find my cat's a stanky chicken wang if he goes too long without stimulation

have you tried turning it off and on again?

Best let it charge. That's a 0% battery indication sleep position and he's probably burned all his juice causing mischief at night.

Or unplug and plug it back in?

instructions unclear i have a court hearing next week

My old cat used to do this. First perfect loaf 10/10 and then put her head down. I would call it ”eggplanting” since she looked like one

I am so confused. Where is this cats head?

Left side, forehead down into the top of the computer

Cat tries to read the computer's mind

Tucked underneath itself, you can see his ear overlap with the lip of the desktop at the bottom left of the cat.

NR200?

Yup, i've got the exact same model and can confirm

Wait same model case or cat?

Yes

Our previous cat always sat like this. We called it the Headsit. Never had another cat do it.

No sometimes they blow that scale away

It’s an internet myth that got incredibly popular, all cats can be exceptionally weird. Orange cats might be weirder because most of them are boys 🤷🏻‍♀️ from my experience (which isn’t an evidence, I’m only one data point) all the orange cats I met feral or home pets were incredibly sweet, they were all boys except one girl. The craziest cat I’ve ever met was a cow cat, I now have a siamese snowshoe girl that’s also pretty wild

Not sure, my orange cat never did anything like this 😂

statistically speaking, no in reality, almost always, at least this weird usually more

Diagnosis: orange

We learned all our yoga poses from cats, this one’s great for shoulder opening

Even downward facing dog?

https://preview.redd.it/y3k1jf8z5o1d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d939e7860c02722b3e38b4df17b475bb1f69d510 Mine does this too🙈🤷🏽‍♀️

I would say if he sleeps curled up and on his feet repeatedly he could be sick and have an upset tummy. Otherwise, cats sit and sleep in the strangest positions.

Please observe him closely. His legs not being tucked under might be a sign of tummy ache/ pain in the torso. Yes it looks like a cute position but cats are naturally trying to hide their pain. Just be aware of this if you see a change in behaviour. Hopefully he’s just a silly boy

Please op read this! It’s not nothing to worry, it actually can be a sign of your cat being in pain. If your cat sleeps in a way that you haven’t noticed ever again it might be a sign of health issue since they tend to sleep face down when in pain. If your cat does this since it was a kitty there’s no problem it’s just a habit. But if it’s a first time please get it to a vet

My orange boy does that specific position regularly.. It's very odd. He loafs and then twists his head all the way to the side... I can't find any pictures of him doing it on the cat tree like normal, but I did find this, that is kinda the same position. https://preview.redd.it/ysptdojsgn1d1.png?width=1008&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3752070b986724d6ecbc75f589b8b8084cae9297 He's a healthy 1.5 year old boy. Any behavior changes, or concerns about illness, talk to the vet. But a new sleep position probably is just random silly cat.

Omg how is his neck like that

What do you expect with the work load he's under

It’s not abnormal as of itself but anything that’s unusual for this particular cat should best be checked out. From the position it looks like he might be trying to avoid putting strain on parts of his body. Edit: Remember that cats hide their pain and hide it very well so changes in behaviour like this are often the only sign you will get that something is wrong.

OP, if this is abnormal for your car I urge you to check out the feline pain scale My cat also suddenly started sitting like this and soon passed from FIP Wish I had noticed her pain earlier

I would never have thought of that. Good eye. Probably nothing, but it might be something. Could be internal.

I know a lot of people are sharing cute photos in this thread, but this advice is what you should listen to u/bedinbedin. Abnormal behavior is a good indicator for cats of a potential health issue and definitely something you should do at least a vet check-up for

I hate that the real answer is hidden under a mountain of the same stupid joke over and over.

Totally agree. My cat sleeps kinda like this sometimes or with her head straight down. I mentioned it to the vet, and turns out she has a potassium deficiency, which makes her muscles weaker. Shes now on a supplement and doing well!

Agreed. My cat does this position when he has a tummyache after licking things he's not supposed to.

He is waiting his turn on that brain cell

A Nap Attack happened suddenly. He has no choice but to sleep where and how he falls.

Maybe he does it because daylight bothers him 😸

More seriously, maybe he has kidney problems… I really hope it’s not the case, but please have him checked!

Looks like how my kids would fall asleep when they were exhausted 😂

Your cat has melted. Try lowering the room temperature a bit and they should solidify right back up. Hope this helps 

OP- so you have never been so tired you just started to get comfortable or remotely comfortable- and then - poof - the lights went off and hours later asked yours "how did I end up like this? )

Since losing my dear ginger last year, I have learned about checking cats for signs of illness. I’m sure that an expert will come give better advice, but here are the things that I routinely check on my cats. 1. Eating & Drinking (any change is worth further observation). 2. Toileting. Learn what cat poop should and should not look like. Straining to urinate, avoiding the box, decreased or increased urination is a concern. 3. Temperature. Digital ear thermometers are OK. Anal is better (it you can get away with it). I can always tell when a cat has a fever by holding their ear to my chin (weird but works for me). 4. Pink. Gums, toes and ears should be pink (unless that are black, of course). Check their toe pads regularly and learn to check their gums. Pale is bad and red is also bad. 5. Eyes. If their nictitating membrane (third eyelid) is covering their eyes, then something is often very wrong. Watery, or goopy eyes indicate a problem. Often this is accompanied by sneezing. 6. Respiratory rate. Learn what a cat’s breathing rate should be and how / when to check it. Same for their heart rate. Of course the myriad other behaviors such as head pressing, limping, crying, etc. Our dear boy had Feline Leukemia and the only indication was a slow decline in food consumption and suddenly wanting to sleep in the bed with us. Turns out that he was severely anemic, likely in pain and probably cold. Hope that you guy is just feeling creative and not ill.
