Atticus the cat has gone viral for the rather unusual way he prefer to catch some Z's!

Two cat owners from the UK turned their feline friend into a social media star by filming a recent nap.

In the clip shared on the TikTok page @ragdollatticus, Atticus can be seen lying on his belly as he dozed off in a honey pot-shaped sleeping bag.

The cat kept his paws stretched out behind him, snoring to himself and enjoying the warmth of the nearby fireplace!

"How I sleep knowing my parents have 2 incomes, they treat me like their biological child, have a camera roll full of me, give me food every time I meow, use my name as the Wi-Fi password, and buy me a new toy or treat every time they leave the house," the video's caption read.

The hilarious moment was a big hit on TikTok and has been viewed over a million times!

Healthy adult cats sleep an average of 12 to 16 hours a day, but the older they get, the more sleep they need.

If a cat sleeps with its belly up – like Atticus in the video – it means that the furry friend feels extremely comfortable and safe in its environment.
