Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / September 2005RPCA - have you ever seen a cat asleep with their eyes open?
Silly's lying on the scanner next to me, one of her favourite sleeping spots... I jsut noticed twitching paws out of the corner of my eye and when I turned around to look at her properly I could see that she's in a dream state - her whiskers are flicking and her front paws are twitching and her eyes were tracking something - all while she's fast asleep! It's very peculiar to watch...

Scouty does it too... only her eyes kind of roll back into her head when she has a bad dream - it was rather alarming to see because it looked like she was having a fit or something! But it was just a kitty nightmare and she was fine after I stroked her and soothed her and woke her up... poor baby...

Sassy use to sleep like that, eyes open doing upside downy head, looking right at you not seeing anything.

It's very peculiar to watch... I've never seen it in a cat (but then, Persia is my only cat). But I have a brother who sleeps like that. When we were on family trips I discovered he slept with his eyes half open. First time I saw it (family was all crammed into a motel room with me on the roll-a-way cot) I was very young and thought he was dead. It's very creepy.

It's very peculiar to watch... She's dreaming :) Cheers, helen s Don't know about cats, but my son slept like that as a baby. i was terrified of SIDS and it used to creep me out, I'de have to go in and poke him gently, just in case. Now he's older, he has very vivid dreams that he remembers and tells me about. So maybe your cat is a vivid dreamer too! |
