Weird sleeping positions

Arklier Sep 06, 2003 11:08 PM

Here's a shot of one of my ackies in a weird sleeping position. I had to dig him out of his den to bug bomb my room (cat left a bunch of jumping bloodsuckers in my bed before being sprayed) so he just improvised. Note, later the next morning, he decided that instead of digging a new den, that he would find an escape route instead. I spent half an hour searching for him, and upon finding him, another 15 minutes retreiving him from where he'd wedged himself behind a set of shelves. Anyway, here he is. That white stuff is teflon paint, which I use to keep the lobster roaches I feed him inside the cage.

I'd be interested to see any other pics that people might have of their monitors sleeping strangely.

Aurek stayed like this, eyes contentedly closed, for over half an hour. He's always finding some comical position to snooze or hang out in.
