Sweetness of the day: cats that hug each other even in their sleep

The week should start with beauty, love, affection and best friends.

What would happen if we tried to sleep in the same position as cats can do? Most likely nothing. We would hardly be able to lie down like this – it seems that cats feel comfortable even in a completely non-anatomical position. But when they sleep together, they can only be envied. Because we also want someone to hug us during sleep, but in practice it turns out that this is terribly uncomfortable.

By the way, despite their reputation as loners, cats prefer to sleep in a company: with people, other pets, with each other. Sometimes they even put each other to bed: they hug and “wash” each other. True, often such cuteness ends in a fight: the cats inflict affection very persistently.

“Cats keep friends close and enemies at a distance. They rarely allow strangers to approach them, and even with other cats prefer to maintain social distance. If they are touched by a pet that they have not recognized as a friend, cats will never fall asleep, ”explains Celia Haddon, an animal behavior specialist, in a conversation with BoredPanda.

So, if your cats sleep together, then they are really best friends, and this only adds to the cute. It’s also a great picture for a photo. After all, cats demonstrate not only an abyss of tenderness, but also unreal flexibility, laying down next to them. Another paradox: if a cat sleeps with you, it seems that it occupies a good half of the bed – so freely it spreads out. But with each other, they often fit into a tiny basket. Miracles of compactness, and more!  

Well, we have collected for you several frames of incredible cuteness – a little tenderness will not hurt anyone.
