My Theory on Cats on Laptops

The Theory of Why Domestic Cats (felis Catus) Enjoy Napping/Relaxing/Bedding on Laptops and Human Workspaces

1. We have enjoyed the past with cats. Whether we enjoy them for comfort or enjoy them for hunting and capturing small vermin so as they do not contaminate our living quarters, we have learned to live with, feed, and enjoy small (and domesticated felines).

2. Cats are predators. While they may not be the ultimate predator in the food chain nor are they a penultimate-predator in the food chain, they are still predators. Cats have and will still enjoy a predatory lifestyle. This means that cats will find opportunistic locations to sleep and spend time to observe areas so that can prey on unsuspecting prey.

3. Cats are mammals and as being a mammal, they are warm-blooded. However, cats prefer to rest/nap/sleep in a warm area. This warm area may not have to be hot, but this warm area is usually warmer than the average surrounding areas.

4. Cat's feet are soft and quiet. As such, cats prefer a soft and quiet 'floor-base' in order to be comfortable.

5. Cats, as we know them (felis Catus), have been accustomed to humans feeding them, scratching them, and providing attention. Thus, in theory, our domesticated cats have learned from us humans by the way we act. In a cat's perspective, us humans pay much attention to a certain area or object for multiple hours in a day. The cat can only surmise that this 'object' or 'area' is important to us. They then learn that this 'object' or 'area' must be an important territory. Hence, they learn to respect this 'object' or 'area' as an important place or thing.
