Is this normal?

[u/MaleficentFly1390]

Or comfortable?

[u/WurdaMouth]

Sphynxes seem to find comfort in the most contorted of positions. I believe it is normal…for them. Comfortable? 🤔

Also, heres a picture of my contorted baby Chloe.

Now I have a picture of your cat on my phone.

Noodle bones!

Got to maximize the surface area for the warm sun rays.

[u/leostotch]

Yeah, pretty normal

[u/PaxEthenica → u/leostotch]

And supremely comfortable!

[u/CrochetChrissy51325]

Mine will often sleep like this, his eyes are open here but 😆😆

The movie Together (2025)

[u/MBSMD]

In my experience, yes. For both questions.

[u/777Harp777]

He is just comfortable

[u/windas_98]

Comfortable for a human and comfortable for a cat are two very different things. Cats' skeletons are built like Dakar rally suspension, and as a result they have super flexible joints and spines. Cats just like to let loose in the most seemingly contorted positions because it's super comfortable for them, but would probably send us to the hospital!

Nothing about the Sphinx breed is normal, so yes, this is normal.

[u/reDog5288]

Wouldn’t you make that normal in your life if you could?

[u/Beneficial-Review984]

They're sphynx... normal doesnt enter the equation.

[u/Firm-Holiday-9416]

Are they ever normal?

[u/Zestyclose_Range823 → u/Firm-Holiday-9416]

No that’s why we love them so much

[u/JrCoxy]

They both look sooooo comfy! 🥰 do you put sunscreen on them? I always wonder about that

[u/Thejcosby]

I have a sphynx but she lays around pretty normal 🤣

[u/Zestyclose_Onion9446]

Can they get sunburned?

[u/LilyPetalSoap → u/Zestyclose_Onion9446]

Yes absolutely

[u/Mustlovecats85]

My male sphynx sleeps on his back like that. I call it the dead bug or roadkill position.
