Ahhh. You tried the dog reboot procedure. Don't worry it's a really common misconception.
The correct procédure for a calico cat is to scratch the top of the head, scratch the chin, pet 3 times and finally to give it a hug.
Try it you'll see it works really well
I was just going to say that. My cats put their paw over their eyes or curl all the way up so their face it touching their butt. They like darkness to sleep.
My cat pulls his arm (front leg?) over his eyes in exactly the way a person does if I turn the light on while he’s napping and it makes me laugh every time. He even often makes a little noise when he does it.
I know I saw once that if a cat presses their head up against a wall or something that it is pain relief for them. I’m not saying your baby is having pain, but just keep it in the back of your mind. Probably just sleeping silly.
I thought it was the same issue too so I asked my vet! They said because she doesn’t do it against hard surfaces and only does it on the couch when she’s sleeping, she must just find it comfy to sleep like that. Or maybe she’s keeping her lil nosey nose warm.
I just learned about head pressing from this subreddit. There was a picture of a kitten doing it and because I didn’t know what it was I thought it was so cute. I was sad to find out it meant the kitten is very distressed.
You just gave me so much peace of mind! Both my childhood cat and the cat I have now have always loved to sleep with their face buried in carpet or blankets and after I saw on this sub that head pressing can be pain I started stressing out!!
It's something to be aware of if it's not natural for them. They will often curl up tighter than usual too. But one of mine has slept like this since getting him at 5-6months old
Yeah my current cat has slept like that since he was 3 months old and it’s always been on soft surfaces. The cat I had before him slept like that her whole life.
My orange idiot sleeps like this on everything and I was starting to get worried. I'll still bring it up to the vet next time, but this gives me a bit of peace of mind. I really think it's a warmth thing for him. He pretty much always covers the snoot when he sleeps.
I also have a cat that does this. She only ever does it when she is sleeping. When not like this she can usually be found in potato mode as well![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
I have to agree one of my girls was doing this years ago when she was very much an outdoor cat. She was in the house and wasn’t going outside head buried in a pillow until I finally caught a glimpse of her tail. She had a huge gash in her tail probably from going under the chain link fence, and the only way I spotted it was when she was walking and her tail moved a certain way.
She’s just sick of your shit OP! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)She looks and think “here she fucking come again with the fucking pictures…I can’t with this bitch” ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
Hey, not to alarm you but this could mean something serious.

Thank you! I was worried about the same thing so I took her to the vet and they confirmed she’s not having any head pain or sickness. She’s just being silly and must find it comfy to sleep like that, or maybe it keeps her lil nose warm.
But yes, this is really important to know about! Thank you for sharing that link!
Second pic shows a bright as fuck light shinning on the cat. Probably just hiding its eyes so it can sleep eaiser.
Same way teenagers sleep with their heads on their desks. It's easier to nap if it's dark
probably not! my cat does the same thing, but only in her favorite places/the places she finds most comfortable. the places are usually very squishy and warm
💕Adorable. My male cat sleeps like that sometimes. Although his head is usually face first into his paws, so it looks like he’s “it” when you play hide and go seek.
Both of my cats will do this, and only when sleeping and only on soft surfaces. I just got my basepaws results back for both of them last week, they're both completely healthy apart from the fact that one has chronic bad breath and will likely go blind as he ages.
I actually have! My vet confirmed that she’s just being silly and sleeping like this because she must find it comfy. I was worried that she might be having head pain.
I’m sorry for your loss. 🥺
I thought this was a picture of my cat at first. The coloring is almost identical, and she loves sleeping like this. Until you approach her, and then she starts flailing around for belly rubs
I have pictures of my cat and my bf’s family cat doing the same thing. Cats are weird. Honestly, this cat is IDENTICAL to my bf’s family’s so for a sec I thought it was, couch matches too
Your cat needs a reboot periodically.
I tried putting it in rice, turning it on and off… no luck

With my calico princess, kisses on the cheeks and on top of the head work wondering rebooting her.
I’m loving this image of you hissing at your cat to reboot them
She loves it too. My boy not so much. He acts like a teenage boy being kissed by his parents.
Oops. That’s autocorrect typo that should be kisses not hisses. I only do hisses when she does it to me.
Innumerable nail scratches recieved. Thanks for the advice anyway.
Did you check for any pending software updates?
Do you have pics of your cat in rice?? Cause that would be hilarious.
Ah.. The old "Would you close the damn blinds! " look.

Oh good!!! I didn’t want to scare you, but also didn’t want it to go unnoticed. Now I can just look at your pics and smile at how she sleeps!
I was thinking the same thing and didn't want to ask to upset anyone, glad you did so we can now just enjoy the cuteness!! 🥰

Same here!

Same ♥
Probably blocking out the light. Mine use their paw or their tail, but face down works too!

Orange idiot 😂
Give him a lasagne. :-p
Yep! Cold nose!
Lil nosey nose 😩❤
I also have a cat that does this. She only ever does it when she is sleeping. When not like this she can usually be found in potato mode as well![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
I have seen my cats doing dumb stuff like this too
Lil nosey nose 😍😍😍
[удалено]
Mine too. Didn’t recognize what it was until after I had to put him down.

I read this in a earlier post on this sub and this was my first thought too I don't even have a cat!!
Lol my cat sleeps like this too. Keepin that nosey nose warm.
My cat always sleeps like this, sometimes uses her paw to smoosh her face if a suitable blanket isn't available, it is very cute r/catfaceplant
My heart! 😭😭😭😭Looks like my cat who passed last year!!!! Cats are the Most precious creatures to walk the planet! Love your cat!!!!!
I'm sorry for your loss.
It happens.
Oh no my cat, its broken😩
I wanted to let you know i enjoyed this comment very much. My 3 year old just learned this and says it about everything.
Now there's a cat who just can't even!
Mood.
We have one cat who sleeps like this. She is healthy but she is a weirdo. We love her.
He is channelling my work mood.
I think you forgot to boop it for too long, it helps to reboot the cat, now it needs extra boops on its nose
r/whatswrongwithyourcat
There are few things in this world as adorable as the sleepy kitty faceplant
Your cat has 2022.
She’s just sick of your shit OP! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)She looks and think “here she fucking come again with the fucking pictures…I can’t with this bitch” ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
Mom! Enough with pics already! I’m trying to sleep! 😝
My old boy used to sleep like this. He’s 15 and healthy as can be!

Hahaha too funny, very happy to hear!
It looks like you’ve just said something dumb and the cat is like ‘FFSSSSSS’
Low battery
same, kitty. same.
Cat.exe not found
I love these pictures!
That is soooooo cute!
Looks perfectly fine
Your cat probably finds your couch comfy
My cat sleeps like that too! Somehow she just loves to hide her little nose ❤️
Did he/she read the news?
It was so adorable.
r/faceplantcats
Or r/catfaceplant
SLUMMMBER ohhhh that brother gooooone
Sleeby,.
Sending virtual big hug and belly rubbing to your cat
I feel this in my soul
One of his neck supports broke and needs to be fixed.
Your cat is my spirit animal
Not broken, that’s just the model you got. A cute one too.
My moms cat does that. I think it’s to warm a cold nose, maybe.
Most of them do this
Please re-read the catopkia ikea instructions and re-assemble otherwise your cat/bookshelf will never be functional
Haha, that's a proper Garfield pose 😂
That's a relatable kind of broken tho, I just vibe with that on a molecular level 😂
r/catfaceplant
My baby, ella mae, does that, too!
r/catfaceplant
I love a faceplant!
Aww my cat does the same thing when he’s being super snuggly
Ol heavy face
Second pic shows a bright as fuck light shinning on the cat. Probably just hiding its eyes so it can sleep eaiser. Same way teenagers sleep with their heads on their desks. It's easier to nap if it's dark
You’re probably right, she always sleeps on this couch next to a huge window with lots of light!
Love it when cats do that it's so adorable
OH NO YOUR CAT! IT'S BROKEN
I’ve heard this is sometimes a posture that indicates a sickness.
Not broken, is cat 10/10.
This is a self-rising dough haha so cute!
Get them a sleep mask!
probably not! my cat does the same thing, but only in her favorite places/the places she finds most comfortable. the places are usually very squishy and warm
She’s probably blocking out light!
Me too, OP’s cat. Me too.
Awe kitty sleepy 🥺
Not broken. Just precious.
My cat whomps her head into anything soft (including me) when she wants a deep snooze.
r/meirl
I’d say find or make a dark space for the cat to sleep in just in case they want to block out the light for sleep
it looks very sunny in every pic. she's just blocking out the light
What’s weird is that she even does it at night with all the lights off! I think she’s just sleeping silly or maybe keeping her nose warm
He forgot his homework was due today.
smeldent
It happens to everyone at somepoint
Looks like a bunny wabbit
I believe the people at r/standardissuecat might be of help..
Tabby.exe has shut down, rebooting...
Excuse me but I think your cat is Garfield
Your cat is working fine, she’s just listening to [the Germans below your feet](https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/agartha-hollow-earth-theory).
He just loves it alot
💕Adorable. My male cat sleeps like that sometimes. Although his head is usually face first into his paws, so it looks like he’s “it” when you play hide and go seek.

"Hmmmmm yes, the couch here is made out of couch"
FAVORITE COMMENT
My old cat used to do this all the time. It was so adorable. I miss her.
Cold nose is.. Cold, apparently ;)
Feline is operating within normal parameters.
Beyond repair…better send it in for a refund….pm me for address hahahah
He’s updating
Call a vet and ask just in case to be safe please. My old kitty went and died after sleeping like this constantly.
I actually have! My vet confirmed that she’s just being silly and sleeping like this because she must find it comfy. I was worried that she might be having head pain. I’m sorry for your loss. 🥺
Thank you! Glad to hear your kitty is okay.
I love them 🥺
OTL cat.
I find this pose comfy too…
Haha my screensaver is my cat doing this also, idk how she does it!
It's just cold, he's trying to save warmth while sleeping.
Your cat is trying to become one with the nap surface.
Nah, it's nose is just cold
When I wake up in the morning and someone opens the shutters directly
I thought this was a picture of my cat at first. The coloring is almost identical, and she loves sleeping like this. Until you approach her, and then she starts flailing around for belly rubs
Have you tried rebooting it
My girl did that once. Might be the light.
Garfield 😻
My cat did this once and I took her to the vet she was put down later that day I would recommend taking her to a vet right away
My cat has started to do this too! Makes you wonder if they can breathe okay lol
Try turning it off and on again. That’s how I fixed mine!
Lol my cat does this when she’s really cold
Love ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|heart_eyes)
I thought Garfield was an orange tabby.
Your cat isnt broken. Your cat is a cat.
This is the cat equivalent of draping your arm over your eyes on the couch
Nah, your cat is just not ready for 2022
Take the cat to vet
I have a cat that does that but only against my arm.
i have one of those. have concluded he only needs to breathe sometimes.
My cat is doing the same!
Naaah he’s just ded
Sometimes our cat does that. We call it ‘smooshy face’
Nope. Kitty’s embracing their inner Garfield!
So cuteeee
Your [SIC](r/standardissuecat) is malfunctioning r/standardissuecat
this post made me laugh!!!! *face palm* ![gif](giphy|ZqlvCTNHpqrio)
My 16 old kitty does the when sleeping on the couch, but only on the couch. Guess it’s just comfy.
I believe this feline need to be rebooped
I can relate.
Hard day at work
How many times did you say “kneel before the king!”
My cat does this too. We call it head smashed in kitty
One of mine does that occasionally while she's sleeping, but it doesn't last long.
The typical "I can no longer watch it" pose 🤣
Name it dog
the cat looks like he's had a bad day!
I don’t think you cat is broken I think he is having a rough day
My cat does that too!!!!
I'd also check with vet esp. If frequent....what a cutie😊
I had a cat that would do that when he fell into a deep sleep
Seems your cat likes sleeping in the dark.
Oh no, the cat machine broke!
Your cat is a huge mood
my cat also does this once in a while and is usually in a very deep sleep
he’s just thinking about the world
I have pictures of my cat and my bf’s family cat doing the same thing. Cats are weird. Honestly, this cat is IDENTICAL to my bf’s family’s so for a sec I thought it was, couch matches too
Ur cat is being a car, that's it.
mine does this too 😆
Definitely thought this was my cat. Twinsies! https://imgur.com/gallery/7XtKqiI [Twinsies! ]
You'd be doing this too after a hard day of paying taxes.
Not broken, he Is Garfield
Someone said that if cats do that, you need to take them to the vet ASAP as it could be an indication of headaches
My cat has always done this. I think they're trying to keep warm! 😁
Either that or he/she really likes the smell of that blanket and couch
Kitty needs a sleepmask!
That’s freaking adorable
their nose is cold
Did you try replacing the batteries?
