You know the scenario, you are lazing about on the couch, staring off into space, and almost guilty for taking a longer break than normal. Then, you look up and realize that your pet has been doing the exact same thing for the last four hours, less the feeling guilty part. It turns out that none of us are alone; we have all been there. From sleepy sloths to snoozing squirrels, lazy animals know how to relax and enjoy a good nap.
Many animals, including humans, depend on napping to preserve their health and well-being. Taking naps can improve memory, lower stress levels, emotional regulation, attentiveness, and productivity. Some animals, like dolphins, can even sleep while still active by shutting down only half of their brain, allowing them to stay alert and keep track of what happens around them. Therefore, the next time you notice your pet dozing off, try not to pass judgment too quickly; after all, they are only taking care of themselves.
