It’s a Cat Thing / myLot

After I took this photo of my cat Ringo lying on the table looking so calm and collected I thought to myself what looks familiar. Then it occurred to me @CarolDM had posted a photo of her cats Dude and Brendel both lying with their paws extended. My Ringo was doing the same thing so I have come to the conclusion that this is a cat thing. Cats must think this is a cool way to sleep with one paw extended.

Chilly will do that too. Mama, Chinnia and Precious used to as well.

@RasmaSandra Yeah. Chilly's favorite is seeing how tight he can get.

It appears that cats to sleep with one paw extended. Funny thing is that I have never seen any of my cats sleeping that way though.

@RasmaSandra Most cats inside the home were street cats.

I’ve seen my cats in the past lay like this. My kitten was laying with his arm bent back in such an unusual way last night I should have taken a photo but I didn’t even think of it until now .

I think they stretch a bit doing that. Cats are such characters.

I agree. Doodles used to sleep with one or both paws extended.

Ringo is a cutie. Thanks for the tag. This is probably the post and photo you remember with my cats. They are too funny with their paws.
