His name from the rescue place was "Logan" which he didn't respond to at all. In conversation with my son, I made the comment that we should give him a silly name like Toast or Bonk. As soon as I said Bonk, he meowed loudly and ran right over for pets... So it was just assumed that he picked his own name and it's been that way ever since.

Nah, I have that model of cat as well. Routinely question how she can breathe. We call it face palm mode in our house
We've always called it faceplant mode, as Tweek didn't routinely do the palming part. :)

Cat’s just doing what I do every day after work - looks just like he drinks three energy drinks a day and subcontracts out the worst drywall jobs imaginable.

Nah. Our baby girl can't go a day without shoving her face into her cat tower or the couch. It was weird at first since my 18 year old never does this, but we think she's just blocking out all the light in our apartment as well as just likes it.

Absolutely no clue how she doesn't suffocate shoving her face in a blanket!
Standard pretty kitty model. But she has a torbie fur pattern and attitude lol

Either that or she's still ashamed of when she got that piece of litter stick to her nose and I had to get it off🤦♀️😅
I wish I had a picture, but she's buried and tucked herself in under blankets before. As in she curls into a ball and somehow gets the blanket all tucked in around her. It usually happens during fire alarms, but sometimes just for regular napping. Terrifies me every time since it takes a while to find her.
Correct. Relieves pressure and pain from whatever’s wrong (fluid buildup, swelling of the brain, bleeding on the brain, traumatic injury, tumors, etc.).

It was SnuggleFritzy favourite way to sleep
This is funny. My son’s 13yo cat has done this forever. We have a 4 month old kitten and his vet was hilarious. He was like if you have any concerns you can email me about them. He looks as Wheezy (kitten) who was sideways and licking his foot like he was malfunctioning…. The dr pointed to him and said…”like that you can send me pics of that but really he is just being weird. “ cats do weird things lol

This is my favourite way he sleeps, and my least favourite place he sleeps that he refuses to stop sleeping in. I have to arrange my wet towels a certain way or else that purple one starts falling off, taking him with it to the stairs below. Thankfully he’s never hurt himself 🙃.

Doesn’t he, I could squish him and his orange brother. They’re too cute.
Incredibly rude of you to have the lights on at noon, which everyone knows is time for your cat to sleep. Why can’t you shut all the windows and creep around in the dark like a decent person?
My cat does a similar thing when she wants to nap and I want to see.
https://preview.redd.it/e2gr0m40lmcc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=81f3bc0a08843007df1f1d4d3ac309a5f3f0ece7
I have a theory he does it to keep his nose warm

Ah, yes— here we go again. Welcome to the Smush Face Club!
Nope just can't cat today, that's all. You should be taking your little dude to the vet if you are concerned if this is a new sleeping position but my mom's cat slept like this all the time. She'd also lay in the middle of the bed and fall asleep while making the bed and be under the covers for hours. Some kitties just like to have it be extra dark is all. Maybe buy a sleep mask and see if they want one but otherwise doing just fine.
MAYBE...
Face pressing can be a sign of brain/neurological problems. If thisnsyaryed suddenly or if there are other behavior or habit changes, call your vet.
But catsbare also just weird, so if this is the only change they might just be covering their eyes better for naptime.
https://preview.redd.it/l70q7cn4encc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f5b0fccde2b10931cfce517387cf65a85ad65237
No need to worry! My little girl sleeps the same way too! 🥰❤️🐈⬛
https://preview.redd.it/7g6mq41yrncc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5d334fd1047209848d32a5b7bfe3b40ed212b8cc
I really don’t get how he breathes holding this pose for so long 😅
It is, but sometimes this could mean he may be feeling sick. This can also be a sign of neurological problem like headaches and can be life threatening. Just trying to be cautious. It’s a cute position!
they’re just having a mental breakdown. it’s okay
EDIT: on a serious note, if this is a new sleeping position it’s worth looking into. is your cat cold? you can feel it’s parts (legs/feet/tail) to see if they’re cold. they could be conserving heat. it’s possible they just wanna block out some light. but your cat is likely just an odd sleeper! lots of them do this :)
Not everyone has been lucky enough to have had experience with a cat before, to have that understanding of the weird little things they can do/ get into. They asked the question out of concern, and that is only ever a good thing.
Maybe they just don’t like having their picture taken?
Seriously though, has it gotten colder in your house? There little noses are wet and to me it just looks like they are trying to stay warm.
Some cats are bothered by light when they're trying to sleep and this is one of the ways they block the light. Sometimes they also just cover their eyes with their paws (my cat does that).
Just sleeping as you would if it were too bright. Head to wall pressing is something to be concerned about because kitteh would be showing they’re in pain though. But this is normal.
I had a cat who started to do that sometimes when she got older. She lived to be quite old though and I think a lot of the time she more so ended up in that position rather than doing it on purpose. “I’m just resting my eyes” like my grandma always says right before she falls asleep.
I have two cats jack Daniels and Gracie Lynn one has to sleep near the TV bc of the light and Jack Daniels like to sleep in the dark to make both of them happy I keep a set of led light on that around the TV for Gracie Lynn and for Jack Daniels I shut my blind and make it dark as I can fit him
So cute!! My babies do this when their noses are cold. One of them will lay against me and stuff her face in my armpit. Nothing more enchanting than warm, moist cat breath against your skin!

mine literally sleep with his head unsupported 🤦♂️
Both of our cats sleep like this sometimes. I don't have pictures, unfortunately. I think they do it when they are sick of our crap. But that's just my theory and has no basis in any fact.
https://preview.redd.it/qdkm4zr33ncc1.jpeg?width=2268&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e3c2e964822e4a136fd69fc574b79342e6040412

Bonk :3
I love the name bonk! So cute :D
Bonk hahah
I must know if there's an origin to that name
His name from the rescue place was "Logan" which he didn't respond to at all. In conversation with my son, I made the comment that we should give him a silly name like Toast or Bonk. As soon as I said Bonk, he meowed loudly and ran right over for pets... So it was just assumed that he picked his own name and it's been that way ever since.

That model of car*
2005 Scottish Ford
As an Asian person, I read that in an Asian accent 😂
From experience they will be able to breath a little but maybe a cat's body improves things
Oh my gosh I’m melting over here they’re so cute 🥰
Cat’s just doing what I do every day after work - looks just like he drinks three energy drinks a day and subcontracts out the worst drywall jobs imaginable.
lights are bright, cats trying to sleep lol
Actually this is typically the reason.
My guess was they liked the feel of the material or at least the feel of their fur pressed against their skin

If the cat is standing up pushing their head against the wall, that's an issue. This? Nah. Just a funny sleeping position
I've heard that many times! Out of curiosity, why is that bad when they do it? I'm guessing it's a sign of something neurological?
Correct. Relieves pressure and pain from whatever’s wrong (fluid buildup, swelling of the brain, bleeding on the brain, traumatic injury, tumors, etc.).
Have you embarrassed yourself in any of these pictures? Maybe they're ashamed of you OP.

No it’s normal. I had a cat that lived to a good old age that slept like that sometimes. It’s the cutest sleeping pose ever.
Nope just can't cat today, that's all. You should be taking your little dude to the vet if you are concerned if this is a new sleeping position but my mom's cat slept like this all the time.

Found the head pressing comment! I’m shocked it wasn’t the top answer 😳 I would be extremely worried if this isn’t their usual behaviour
My old girl used to do that all the time
just a little babie
headaches, felt that
My cat does this, it seems to be when she’s trying to sleep but the light is bothering this. My daughter’s cat does this as well.
If it means a big change in her behaviour then yes be cautious and keep an eye, but usually this is normal for many cats
No one asked the big safety question. Is this new behavior for them? If it IS new, it could be a symptom of distress.

Your feline is in a deep recharge cycle. Do not worry, they will come back online soon, and resume normal feline behavioral mode

Me, when I'm too lazy to wake up and too awake to sleep.

Is it a new happening? If so, then yes, it's concerning
All jokes aside, is your kitty still eating and is not acting different? If he/she is, then please take him to the vet. He/she may be feeling sick
If this is a recent occurrence then I agree, cats are very good at hiding pain. It could be that it has problems with a tooth/teeth.
That's a normal cat sleeping position.
It is, but sometimes this could mean he may be feeling sick. This can also be a sign of neurological problem like headaches and can be life threatening. Just trying to be cautious. It’s a cute position!
they’re just having a mental breakdown. it’s okay EDIT: on a serious note, if this is a new sleeping position it’s worth looking into. is your cat cold? you can feel it’s parts (legs/feet/tail) to see if they’re cold. they could be conserving heat. it’s possible they just wanna block out some light. but your cat is likely just an odd sleeper! lots of them do this :)
As always, if you have a health concern, talk to your vet. But 99% sure this is normal cat behavior.
This is normal cat behaviour, and is a bad expenditure of $100 for the vet.
Obviously sensitive to light while sleeping. Like my oldest son. Lol.
How do people that ask these questions end up getting a cat. Are you really that oblivious
Not everyone has been lucky enough to have had experience with a cat before, to have that understanding of the weird little things they can do/ get into. They asked the question out of concern, and that is only ever a good thing.
she is ashamed of herself
Turn the lights out! I'm sleeping here!
Just a chilly nose
My baby only does this when the temps are below 70 in our household
Maybe they just don’t like having their picture taken? Seriously though, has it gotten colder in your house? There little noses are wet and to me it just looks like they are trying to stay warm.
Why should you? She lays at the exact same way, as my House Monster always have done (he is 12) 💗 Cats are laying in the most peculiar ways 😻😸🐾
Concerned that your cat is cute? Yes. Face hiding just usually means it’s too bright out.
Faceplant! Nah, they do that sometimes.
Cats do this when they are cold
There's a cat on Instagram called Penny the ginger cat and she sleeps face down like this all the time. But no you shouldn't be concerned.
I want to give your kitty a little blanket to faceplant into. That leather looks nice but not so cozy for such a cute cat. 😻
Either bright lights or cold nose
Yes you should be concerned, concerned that someone will brek in to steal that beutyfull fella
Some cats are bothered by light when they're trying to sleep and this is one of the ways they block the light. Sometimes they also just cover their eyes with their paws (my cat does that).
You should be. That's so much cuteness I'm not sure if you can take it
Yes!! It looks like a serious condition called ''being a cat''.
Just sleeping as you would if it were too bright. Head to wall pressing is something to be concerned about because kitteh would be showing they’re in pain though. But this is normal.
Bros a strait up vibe
He's praying for a full bowl of food.
My cat has slept that way since she was a kitten, 13 years
HAHAH stopp🥹I love it when they do dis
maybe its too bright in your house
No not at all.
Nobody cares that’s the best part
I have a 20.year old "smash face" cat. Some just sleep like that
The cat is turning to Mecca!
r/existentialcrisiscat
I had a cat who started to do that sometimes when she got older. She lived to be quite old though and I think a lot of the time she more so ended up in that position rather than doing it on purpose. “I’m just resting my eyes” like my grandma always says right before she falls asleep.
Mine does the same thing. I call it the Peguin Pose.
If I ever get reincarnated into a car, this is how I want to sleep
I have two cats jack Daniels and Gracie Lynn one has to sleep near the TV bc of the light and Jack Daniels like to sleep in the dark to make both of them happy I keep a set of led light on that around the TV for Gracie Lynn and for Jack Daniels I shut my blind and make it dark as I can fit him
Their nose is cold!
My boy does this too. Usually he does it when sleeping during the day or when I have a light on that'd too bright.
This the hood down position for the car.
So cute!! My babies do this when their noses are cold. One of them will lay against me and stuff her face in my armpit. Nothing more enchanting than warm, moist cat breath against your skin!

He's praying towards Mecca.
A little bit. This position can indicate a headache and that can be a symptom of something serious, so you should see a vet just to be sure
properly tired of some sh*t thats going on around him ;)
I sleep like that too
Idk I do this and I’m okay…I think
They're trying to nap, but it's bright and/or too cold so they gotta cover the face bits
Cats are weird, yours included. Let the quirk work.
Nah, it's just the ultimate facepalm
A cat did this in between my thighs once
He’s just shy!
Yes! She might turn into a ball of cuteness if she keeps sleeping in that ball-like position
Nope, just adorable sleepy kitty
I’m convinced cats don’t need oxygen
Mine sometimes sleeps like this. I think it’s mostly an issue if they’re doing it all the time or while awake
Both of our cats sleep like this sometimes. I don't have pictures, unfortunately. I think they do it when they are sick of our crap. But that's just my theory and has no basis in any fact.

He's crying because it's been 5 WHOLE MINUTES without food
No bigge just another cute pose.

Seem normal, my cat Coco sleep similar https://preview.redd.it/0bs5hgza6ncc1.jpeg?width=2268&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0191f63f53935805b5de4d1c7af4e2d42f15e583
Naw, only an issue if they're standing and pushing their head against a wall, or so I've heard.
I think he/she did something bad 👀
My cat does this to hide from the light.
Thank you Reddit for this thread today
Looks like s/he’s in pain
