This is a list of my cat’s five favorite places to sleep, in order of decreasing preference. Please comment on where your kitty loves to nap!

1. Clean laundry pile
2. Any laundry pile
3. Scrunched up next to me in bed, so when I roll over I suddenly wake up to a cat frantically trying to escape being crushed
4. In my lap while I’m sitting at the computer, so I feel guilty getting up
5. Anywhere that is not under water or on fire
