Nothing to worry about there. He's just telepathically reporting in to the mother ship on the dark side of the moon.

Seriously, that head down position isn't all that uncommon. I've seen my cats do that a lot over the years. My old girl Angel still does it on occasion. But she's also the one who sleeps with her body right-side-up, and her head twisted around so it's upside down. I used to tell my wife that she does that because her dreams are upside down, and that's the only way she can see them right-side-up.

Thanks for the replies. Glad that others have seen this with their cats. When I was growing up, we always had cats. Don't remember any of them sleeping this way. Like I mentioned in my original post, his happiness is what matters.

Pretty kitty. Probably content. My current cat will sometimes sleep like that face-down. For the cats I had earlier, I don't recall them sleeping in that position at all.

When in doubt, simply remember this: kitties are weird.

OP, your cat is adorable!

My cat will sleep like that when her nose is cold. The paws give just enough distance off the chair for oxygen.

Then I'd be huddled over just like he is. Except I'd surely be depressed and crying my eyes out.
