How to find a sleeping-spot (if you’re a kitty):
Walk around the house, checking every surface (the higher the better, unless it’s in a deep, dark corner). Find a box, or a container of some sort. (Not too big of course, you’re aiming for a snug fit.) Once container/box has been located, check inside. Does it a) have sides to prevent you from stretching out; b) contain ‘stuff’ that will restrict movement; and, c) is it oddly balanced, preferably on a corner of a table? If you can tick at least two of these, you have found a potentially suitable sleeping spot.
Now: climb in, tentatively. Look up at your owner, as if to say, “Do you see what you have left in this thing?!”, squeeze in, roll yourself into a ball, put your tail over your eyes, and go to sleep.
And that’s how it’s done!
