When it comes to napping, cats exhibit a wide range of behaviors. Kittens, with their seemingly endless energy, often have little interest in napping when there’s mischief to be made. However, as they grow into adulthood, many cats discover that napping in a sunny spot is the perfect way to spend an afternoon (a sentiment that many humans can appreciate as well).
Yet, there are cats who prefer to cozy up with their humans at bedtime, adhering strictly to their own schedules and terms — as cats are wont to do. Take, for example, this particular kitty who is more than ready to call it a night, regardless of whether his humans are prepared to join him.
A Cat’s Bedtime Routine
This kitty’s adorable, squeaky meow and big, sleepy yawn make it hard for anyone to deny him his request for bedtime. He’s clearly exhausted and signaling that it’s time for everyone to settle down so George, the star of the video, can finally get some rest.
In a previous video, George’s impatience was explained: his owner had stayed up late managing his TikTok account, ensuring that it was running smoothly and engaging with followers’ comments. Despite the effort being for his benefit, George was more concerned with getting to bed. His series of squeaky sounds — arguably the cutest cat meows — was his way of insisting that bedtime should not be delayed.
Understanding Bengal Cat Vocalizations
While George’s charming squeaky meows are unique to him and not a common trait of Bengal cats, the breed is known for being full of energy and highly vocal. Bengal cats often use their meows to communicate various needs and desires to their owners.
Long Meows: These can indicate that the cat is in pain and requires attention.
Common Meows: Typically, these are used to ask for something, such as food or affection.
Bengal cats are generally noisy and playful, loving to be the center of attention, much like George. Their vocalizations can range widely, making them interesting and interactive pets.
George’s Much-Needed Rest
After that big yawn, it’s clear that George needed his sleep. Hopefully, he got to go to bed right away and enjoy a restful night, ensuring he’s ready for more play and perhaps more TikTok fame the next day.
