    How much should an 8yr old cat sleep?
    I have noticed my cat sleeps an awful lot, most of the time she is sleeping. Is this normal? How much activity does a cat really need?

    Cats do sleep a lot. In fact, they can often sleep anywhere from 13 to 16 hours per day. This means that cats often spend approximately 2/3 of their entire lives sleeping.

    If you have noticed a change in your cat's behavior, in this case meaning that your cat is sleeping much more than usual, you should contact your vet to rule out any medical issues that might be going on.
