Default Poll: Which direction do your cats like to face?

I was telling Rob about this when I noticed that Huey and Merlin were
shifting their positions on the bed...to the left. Since that time, all of
the cats are doing their best to confuse us. May I suggest that you don't
mention this poll in front of your owner, but answer. Does your cat face to
your right or left when sleeping curled up?


That's a good question. I think they do all different things - whatever
happens to suit them in the moment. The one thing I *do* notice is that
when all 3 of them are on the bed, two of them will be in identical positions,
and the third will be in the same position, but backward. It never fails.
So, if two are curled clockwise, the third will be curled counterclockwise.
If two are meatloafing toward one wall (and in perfectly parallel positions),
the third will be meatloafing exactly 180 degrees the other way.

And it's not always the same cat who has to do it differently, which is
why I spoke of them in general terms. They've all had their turn being
the opposing-position cat at one time or another.

What do you suppose that is about??
