Cats' sleeping positions and their meanings can tell a lot about the health of your furry pet.

Here's what the most common positions cats prefer to rest in mean.

This position is typical for animals in the wild to protect themselves from danger.

Back pose

The pose of a cat lying on its back with its paws spread out in different directions can be called the most serene.

In this way, the cat demonstrates that it is surrounded by care and attention. At these moments, the cat feels protected and has nothing to worry about.

The pet trusts the environment and allows itself to relax as much as possible.

Side pose

A cat sleeping on its side with its paws outstretched is not worried about its own safety.

In such a situation, the pet completely trusts people and does not feel the need to be on guard.
