cats sleeping patterns
- Thread starter Snookie
- Start date
Up until they were a year old, 3 of mine were awake more than the DSHs I had. Then they developed a truer crepuscular pattern. Atticus takes several short naps throughout the day and sleeps deeply from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. The rest of the time he is on alert for things he may be missing. I'm curious if this pattern will change as he reaches full maturity.
He'll be 2 yrs old in February. Physical maturity occurs at 3 yrs. I haven't a clue when they reach emotional maturity. In Atticus's case, I suspect it'll be between 3-5 years.

My kilifi, who will be 3 in March, is still a kitten at heart. Azidi, who will be 5 in April, has become a more laid back lady.

My savannahs are more active than my DSH, but he's 11 and they're 2 and 3. Tiger was a pretty active kitten, but I think my savannahs are still more active than he was when he was at his most active. They sleep a lot through the day though, but in spurts. They sleep completely through the night as well

Well with Zeddie I kept her locked up at night since she was a kitten because I was afraid of the overnight mischief and I live with my parents/neurotic grandma. She slept through the night since she came home, and got used to it pretty easily.
I got Jimmy as a foster when he broke his leg, so he was in a crate for 2 months healing. After that he was in my room at night with Zeddie. He yowled for a bit...if he drove me nuts he spent the night in a room by himself (and things cats need) but he gets lonely doing that so he adapted pretty fast. I could have just been lucky though
