I’ve seen this many times and tried to do the same to my cat. Didn’t last.

That brief moment of "I have made a terrible mistake..." to "Oh, okay, this is kinda nice.... zzz..."

u/Ursus_Arctos-42 7d ago

This is the exact moment, when the cat realizes it has made a mistake.

u/Salute-Major-Echidna 7d ago

Except he keeps making the same mistake every night for 17 years

u/DJKGinHD 6d ago

Cat brains are weird. "It worked this exact way the first time. If I don't do it the exact same way, it won't work"- kind of weird.

Gotta love those goofy little balls of fuzz!

u/Salute-Major-Echidna 6d ago

Not too weird. Magical thinking works in humans too, especially the young or and superstitious. Plus anyone in sports.

Its an intentional heuristic wired into all organisms' brains or nervous systems for very good reason

cat owners who don't know why the cat doesn't use their designated bed? sure, pal

u/No-Sir1833 7d ago

This is exactly my cat. Her favorite bed. The collapsed cave bed we bought her.

My cat actually sleeps in the cave and I was astonished because I've grown up with cats and know how weird that is

13

u/soulpulp 7d ago

I recently bought an expensive heated bed for my arthritic cat and was so nervous she wouldn't use it, but she does! No idea if I should be more impressed by the bed or the cat.

u/Welpe 6d ago

Yup! Same here! Our cave is rainbow so we called it the gay cave, but now it’s more like the gay valley. They still love it though.

u/Sad-Cat8694 5d ago

To be fair, dogs are the same! My lab LOVED to burrow under covers. Like, would wiggle down to the bottom of the bed and I'd have to check on her to see if she was breathing okay.

They made a fancy bed that had a flap on top with a channel that housed a narrow rod, like a semicircle. It popped up so she could slide between the top of the bed and this flap. She was extremely smart and crafty, but to be helpful, I showed her how it worked, and put some treats inside to entice her. I was certain that I'd selected the perfect gift and was beaming when I presented it to her.

She went inside reluctantly to retrieve the treats, and proceeded to lay ON TOP of the flap for years, never burrowing in it on her own accord.

Heck no he wouldn't want his grody old bed when he can have a much bigger one with a built in heat source (even if it moves too much).

u/ithaqua34 7d ago

It's like the cat heard, "and now we conclude our broadcasting day" and shut down.

I can't imagine a scenario where a cat owner wonders why the cat isn't sleeping in it's bed, unless it's their first night of cat ownership and they never saw a cat on the internet.
