Rowan Vale
Your cat has a favourite sleeping place. Until one day, it doesn’t. The soft bed is suddenly ignored. The sunny windowsill stands empty. The familiar cushion is abandoned for a cardboard box, a bathroom sink or an unexpected corner of the house. Why do cats repeatedly change where they sleep, and what might those choices reveal about their comfort, instincts and everyday lives? In The Cat Who Changes Sleeping Place, Rowan Vale explores the fascinating relationship between feline behaviour and the environments cats call home. Drawing on veterinary knowledge, behavioural research and familiar household observations, this engaging guide examines how warmth, sunlight, texture, scent, security, noise, social relationships and daily routines influence resting preferences. It also explores why favourite places come and go, how kittens discover their sleeping habits, and why ageing or health changes can alter the places a cat chooses. Rather than relying on myths or treating every unusual behaviour as a mystery, the book offers a thoughtful, evidence-informed understanding of the domestic cat. Discover why the perfect sleeping place is not always a bed, why yesterday’s favourite may be ignored today, and how a home with several good resting options can support a cat’s comfort and wellbeing. A revealing read for cat owners and anyone curious about the subtle behaviours behind everyday feline life.
