For those of us who have a feline friend, we know firsthand how much joy and LOLs their companionship can bring us. However, cats are also known for their nonchalant, devil-may-care attitude, which is exactly what led to this one man’s hilarious predicament.
A Thai man named Lomphonten felt that his breathing was always laboured and ragged upon waking up, and decided to install a closed-circuit camera by his bedside to suss out any strange goings on. What he discovered next was truly amusing.
As it turns out, his cat, Achi, had a habit of jumping onto his bed at night, then climbing atop his owner’s chest. According to The Dodo, he would then paw Lomphoten’s face to make sure he’s truly asleep. Once the coast was clear, he would leap onto his owner’s face, and make it his comfy bed – night after night. We’re guessing Lomphoten must have been a very deep sleeper for him to not feel a lump of fur squashing him!
All at once, it became clear why he’d suffer from abnormal breathing in the morning. When interviewed, he said: “I sat and watched (the footage one night). It was very funny.” Even though the post-squash sensation is not one he enjoys, Lomphoten has decided to let the cat continue sleeping wherever he’s comfortable. It’s not like you can stop cats anyway, once they have decided to do what they want to do.
While some may see a sly feline attempt at hooman assassination, his human feels very differently. “I feel very much in love with him that he loves me like this,” Lomphoten said. After the post went viral, the comments section was swarmed by netizens, who were tickled pink by the cat’s boldness.
(Translation: His lover in a past life)
(Translation: There was a time when I was sleeping that I thought a ghost was on my bed, but I suspected then that the ghost might have been a cat after all)
We don’t know what’s more amusing: the cat, or the reactions! We’ll vote for the cat, lest he decides to haunt our dreams by making our faces his bed too.
