Why a cat sleeps next to you: this is not only a sign of love and attachment

Cats are quite independent animals, but quite often they choose to sleep next to their owner. What does this mean?

She claims that cats love warmth, so it is not at all surprising that an animal lies down next to a sleeping person. She just wants to be extra warm.

This happens most often in regions with cool climates, because even a long-haired cat may not have enough fur to keep her completely warm. In other parts of the house, it may be uncomfortable for the animal to sleep, and your body will act as a radiator. At the same time, the cat can not only sleep next to you, but also try to lie on top of you.

The AnimalWised YouTube channel also posted a video showing that cats, although they appear to be playful, are actually quite lazy. They can sleep up to 15 hours a day. At the same time, they lie down in the most incredible places, in particular, on a fluffy bed. So one of the reasons why a cat lies down next to a person is comfort.

Amy also notes that cats are constantly on alert, even when they appear to be relaxed. Relationships with an animal are very important, so if a cat feels safe next to you, it will lie on your bed.

The zoo expert added that cats are those animals that show most active at dusk. And therefore at night they may need an increased sense of security. Therefore, they lie down next to the owner, who can protect them in case of danger.

Sometimes this is how a cat shows its feelings towards a person. If she is sufficiently attached to the owner and trusts you, she can “allow” you to sleep next to her. If the cat climbs on the bed and rubs against you, it means that it considers this place its own, this is one aspect of marking the territory.
