Making the bed might be a non-negotiable part of your morning, unless you share it with a cat. In that case, it becomes a negotiation, and you’ll probably lose. One cat owner’s video of their peacefully snoozing pet makes a pretty solid case for leaving the covers exactly where they are.
Cat has the best nap of her life in owner’s bed in an adorable video
Uploaded by Instagram user @mibicket, the video shows a black and white cat sound asleep in the middle of her owner’s bed, bundled up snugly in the covers. The peaceful scene is enough to make anyone want to crawl back into bed themselves. The cat looks completely relaxed, nestled in a cozy spot that clearly belongs to her now. As the owner gently reaches over to pet her, she yawns and stretches, then drifts back into her peaceful slumber.
An on-screen message reads, “Why I couldn’t make the bed this morning,” and honestly, it’s hard to argue with the logic. Underneath the video, the caption reads simply, “fair reasoning.” One look at the sleeping cat, and it’s obvious that disrupting her nap would have been borderline cruel.
The video has gone viral across the platform, pulling in over 344K views and nearly 33K likes. In the comments, people were quick to praise the sleeping feline. “The Princess getting her beauty rest!!!” one person wrote. Another joked, “She’ll make it when she gets up.” Others simply admired how content and peaceful the cat looked, with one saying, “Bless her, she’s so content.”
On average, cats sleep between 12 to 16 hours a day, and sometimes even more, depending on their age and energy levels. In fact, kittens and older cats tend to nap more, and it’s not unusual for a healthy adult cat to spend most of their day snoozing. Their sleep patterns are influenced by their instinct as predators, where bursts of energy are followed by long periods of rest. So, while making the bed might be part of a typical routine, letting a cat enjoy her nap is, in the eyes of many, a completely fair trade-off.
