Winslow Stewart McCreedy has a thing for sleeping face down. None of my parents’ many cats did this.
Is this a cat thing other cats do?
@colorblindcowboy Yes, it’s definitely part of the pantheon of known weird things that cats do. It’s pretty cute too, there…

@colorblindcowboy Serious response: this is called 'head-pressing' and can be a sign that something is wrong. It might be just a weird cat but a vet should take a look.

My cat Tertial was definitely a face sleeper, haha. Although he did "soften" with his paws on hard surfaces

@ephemeromorph Oh really? Ok. Thank you. I will look into it.

@ephemeromorph From what I’m reading head-pressing involves vertical surfaces, not a horizontal one.
