Cats may not have busy weeks filled with working or studying, but that doesn’t stop them from taking advantage of the weekend to have a cat nap. Or two. Or in fact, several.
It’s hard to say whether a cat’s weekend routine is any different from their Monday to Friday routine, but it seems to me that our cats pick up on the more laid back feel of weekend days. Saturday and Sunday are the best times to just chill out and catch some z’s.
Lots of places can be fun to sleep. But the weekend means that mummies and daddies that work (or study) during the week are home and their laps can be taken full advantage of. This weekend Sampson decided to take advantage of both our laps at once!
A sleepy, cuddly cat is certainly a good weekend companion, even if their choice of bed can be at times a bit inconvenient. There’s only a certain amount of time that one can bear to stay still as a kitty cushion before pins and needles or the call of nature mean that poor cat has to go and find somewhere else to sleep. And isn’t that always the worst insult you could ever pay them? How dare you move when a cat is trying to sleep on you!
Love,
Lady Joyful
Are your cats more cuddly at the weekend than during the week? Do they like to take advantage of a soft lap to sleep on?
Mind checking out my new Poetry? https://iamjishnu.wordpress.com/2015/10/25/my-goodness/
Oh, I really like this Lady Joyful … 🙂
Our cat Lilly is napping the whole day but for slowly walking in HER garden and of course to take some food / go to the litter box. In the morning there’s a quarter of an hour stroking and that is in fact every day. I don’t notice any change on weekends – perhaps she’s sometimes an hour later because it’s so quiet outside … 😉
Lilly sounds like a lovely, peaceful cat 🙂 Thanks for commenting!

Voi noita kissoja. Uskomattoman samanlaisia tavoissaan. Oh those cats, their habits are so similar. “How dare you move when a cat is trying to sleep on you!” This sentence is so true every night. This morning the Great Kosmo had put his head to my hand and were snoring, as usual, really loud.
Niin, on ihan totta! Meidän Sampsonilla on usein sama idea kuin Kosmolla. Sampsonkin on äänekäs kun kuorsaa ja kehrää. Kiitoksia kommentistasi!
Cats are wonderful!
They certainly are! Thanks for commenting 🙂

WE have one cat, Frankie, that will leave everyone alone till Saturday then will mob people and make them sit down. He has been doing this for 12 yrs 🙂
Frankie sounds like a sweetheart 🙂 Thanks for commenting!

Ah, rambunctious kitties, eh? I’m sure they’ll settle down at some point 😉 Thanks for commenting! 🙂

I’m still waiting the at some point! Winter is coming and the kats get nervous as they don’t like it: no sun no party 😛
Ciao

This is been a rare weekend for me in which I have been home Spinner is stuck to me like glue & always sitting near me. If not he is nearby staring at me.
Aw, what a sweetie! Thanks for commenting 🙂
I think we could all take a leaf out of the cat book on a Sunday. In such a busy modern world we often forget the value of rest… maybe we should make like the cat! 🙂
Ooh, that’s a very good idea! Thanks for commenting 🙂
My cats are cuddly every day. 🙂
How lovely! 🙂 Thanks for commenting.

My cats take advantage of my lap whenever I sit down however it seems that when I sleep I make a better cat bed. I have one on each shoulder and the remaining three position themselves from my neck to my toes. Did I mention moving is frowned upon.
That sounds both delightful and frustrating – delightful cuddles, but a frustrating inability to move! Thanks for commenting 🙂
Yes but I am accustomed to it by now it has been going on for 5 years
On the weekends, and weekday evenings. my lap is cat territory. And nothing makes me happier! 😀
Lap snuggles are wonderful, aren’t they? Thanks for commenting 🙂
They certainly are! 🙂
I have 2 feline princesses, and one at first glance anyway, looks like this one in the pic.
Upon a closer look, Daisy is a flame point Siamese. She’s a white cat but, all her points are cinnamon, and she has the typical striped tail.
The other is a regal looking long hair black cat.
I love my felines!!
They can be snuggly……for a price. Temptations.
Your cats sound very pretty! Thanks for commenting 🙂

Cats are more relaxed and therefore sleep more at week ends because their human house companions are at home. That makes them happy, feel loved and cared for and cats feel more relaxed and sleep more when they are happy. I got this information from the protagonist of my book: “The Cat That Became a Footballer” – http://www.amazon.co.uk/BECAME-FOOTBALLER-Astralia-Wisdom-Works-ebook/dp/B00A3UHN8E
Well that is exactly what I was thinking 🙂 Thanks for sharing the information!
