I set up the garage (which is built into the house) with all 4 litter trays and Nova likes camping out on the old beanbag by the litter trays - It is the coolest room in the house though I suppose!

Mosi chooses a new sleeping place every few weeks/months. He pretty much rotates them now as he's slept just about everywhere! He's recently started sleeping on a particular shelf on the cat tree that he never used before.

Yer, you're right - she's well guarding it.

Just reminded me of another sleeping place - she's in there somewhere

- see pic.

I have a whole crowd of big teddies around my house, none as big as that though! And definitely none big enough for me to sleep on.

Bonnie looks like she's saying to me 'you keep away from my mr panda' in that photo

Aaaw sorry Claire - here's full pic of it - I fell in love with it years ago and when it was in the sale for 1/2 price I had to get it.

Bonnie just made me jealous, I wish I had a giant panda I could curl up to sleep on! Harumph.

to Purrs Canon - you will find cats do lots of things to get us worried and guessing if they are ok or not - little S*DS

My Bonnie sleeps in one place for a few weeks then another, then another, then another but always starts off in my bed.

Pics of just a few of her favourite places

Poppy and Charlie have both changed on the last week, Charlie under the dining table and Poppy on the sofa. Must be to hot for her this week in the windowsill.

I think Pepsi is definitely moving her sleeping place in order to find somewhere cooler. I bought a roasting tray a while ago which is too big to fit into our tabletop oven, I put it on the table in the living room and Pepsi has started sitting and sleeping on it

I was going to take it back and change it for a smaller one, but if she's using it to cool off with then I think I'd feel too bad taking it away from her

And Ai chan has now changed her sleeping space once again, now she sleeps with my DD along with my foster cat phillip.

Yep, occasionally cats do for some reason like to change their sleeping places. Ours have done this if they've found somewhere else which they prefer or when the weather changes i.e. if they are too warm/cold in that spot or sometimes it's hard to tell and often they've preferred a hard floor to a comfy bed. I would be more wary however if they were hiding away all the time.

Shiroi-Neko · « **Reply #10 on:** July 20, 2010, 20:41:41 PM »

It's pretty normal for cats to change their favorite sleeping places.
Ai chan used to sleep on my bed at night. Now it's the hallway floor near the bathroom.

Noah mostly sleeps on my bed when I am out, or near me when I am home. I'd like to think it was a personal compliment but as he steals my seat the second I get up to go to the toilet or the fridge, I suspect it is not.

canon · « **Reply #8 on:** July 19, 2010, 13:57:03 PM »

Thanks everyone, yes hes eating and drinking fine and seems his usual self. Its put my mind at ease now.

My boy Poot regularly changes his favourite place, it oftend depends on the weather as well. In all this heat he's been avoiding his comfy cusion and been chilling on the floor under the coffee table, as its cooler there I assume

This is what Pepsi has done, she always used to sleep on a cushion or on the arm of the sofa, now she stretches herself out on top of the little TV we have on Si's desk as it's quite cold on there, I think she's cooling her tummy off

At first I was going to put a cushion on there as it doesn't look very comfy, but that would kind of defeat the object for her I think. I always used to worry about Pepsi as she'd always sleep in places that looked uncomfortable like the arm of the sofa, especially when she has loads of nice beds everywhere

but I guess they must be comfy otherwise they wouldn't stay there

Mine all vary their sleeping places , usually where I want to sit is very popular!

I hope it's normal as my boy likes to change his sleeping places.

As a kitten he started off sleeping on the dog bed for ages. Then switched to his own bed under the radiator for a long while. Then it was the first landing on the stairs - either in the middle or leaning against the step. After that he progressed to the top of the landing, sleeping across the very top step. Then he brought his nap time back downstairs to his bed. Switched to the chair under the window. Then moved back upstairs to take over my bed. His current afternoon nap spot is on one of the dining room chairs. He seems to like one spot for a few weeks to a couple of months then just switches.

As for night time snoozes he used to sleep on me for the longest time, then moved out to the landing but has moved back into my room and spends all night fast asleep in his bed which is on the floor at the end of my bed.

to Purrs

My cats go through phases of where they like to sleep so I think it's quite normal for Thomas to have picked a new favourite place. As long as he seems to be his usual happy self and is eating/drinking OK then I wouldn't worry about it in the slightest

purrdy1 · « **Reply #2 on:** July 19, 2010, 11:13:30 AM »

i think cats are just fickle!

nothing to worry about, I dont think...maybe you could try and freshen his cushion up a little wash it and see if that makes any different....cats love a basket of clean washing!.....

canon · « **Reply #1 on:** July 19, 2010, 11:06:51 AM »

Hello everyone would just like a little information . Thomas is my first cat, hes 5 years old, since we've had him (almost 2 years ) hes alway slept/chilled on a cushion on the sofa. However the past 4 weeks he now will not go anyway near the cushion !! and sleeps/chills under the eating area on the carpet.... just wondering why hes all of a sudden changed to a different resting place?? Is this usual for cats? The cushion hasnt had anything spilt on it so no new smells or anything like that...
