Why does my cat sleep so much?
Similar to their non-domesticated counterparts such as lions and tigers, cats sleep a lot. On average a cat may sleep between 12-20 hours a day! Cats are predators and it takes a lot of energy to play and hunt all day. Typically a cat will spend most of the day sleeping and will be awake at night since it’s better to hunt in the shadows. Though a domesticated cat will adapt its sleep schedule to its feeding schedule.
