They establish territories that vary considerably in size, in one study ranging 7\u201328 ha (17\u201369 acres).[97] The timing of cats&#8217; activity is quite flexible and varied; but being low-light predators, they are generally crepuscular, which means they tend to be more active near dawn and dusk. However, house cats&#8217; behavior is also influenced by human activity, and they may adapt to their owners&#8217; sleeping patterns to some extent.[98][99]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed alignright is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"12 Weird Cat Behaviors Explained\" width=\"474\" height=\"267\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/g_0zqKNO9I4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cats conserve energy by sleeping more than most animals, especially as they grow older. The daily duration of sleep varies, usually between 12 and 16 hours, with 13 to 14 being the average. Some cats can sleep as much as 20 hours. The term &#8220;cat nap&#8221; for a short rest refers to the cat&#8217;s tendency to fall asleep (lightly) for a brief period. Short periods of rapid eye movement sleep are often accompanied by muscle twitches, which suggests they are dreaming.[100]<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"662\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/infotec03.ghsvids.org\/anavarro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cat-behavior-662x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-108\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.646491409646036;width:174px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/infotec03.ghsvids.org\/anavarro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cat-behavior-662x1024.jpg 662w, https:\/\/infotec03.ghsvids.org\/anavarro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cat-behavior-194x300.jpg 194w, https:\/\/infotec03.ghsvids.org\/anavarro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cat-behavior-768x1187.jpg 768w, https:\/\/infotec03.ghsvids.org\/anavarro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cat-behavior-994x1536.jpg 994w, https:\/\/infotec03.ghsvids.org\/anavarro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/cat-behavior.jpg 1035w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 662px) 100vw, 662px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Behavioral and personality traits depend on a complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors.
