You know the kitty equivalent of REM sleep when their paws and whiskers sort of vibrate/twitch in their sleep when they are very deeply asleep?
I've always heard that when kittens do that they are releasing growth hormone and so, growing, and that they stop doing it or do it rarely as they approach full-grown-ness. Is this true?
If Zissou still does it, is she still growing? She's doing it right now on my lap and just woke suddenly and made a weird noise at me, heehe!!! It used to happen every time she slept and now I rarely see it.
Does anyone have an adult cat who still does this?
