Koalas have been known to sleep for more than 20 hours a day… and it’s not just because they need to… they just really like sleeping! Some animals, like sheep and goats, go to sleep multiple times a day. No matter when or how long our animal friends take a nap, it’s still adorable to watch.

We at Bright Side think our four-legged buddies are onto something about staying well-rested, so we’re sharing photos of the cutest sleeping animals.

1. Sometimes, even breakfast isn’t worth getting out of bed for.

5. This cat is so relaxed he’s practically melting.

6. “She is very protective of her ducklings.”

9. The middle of the day is the perfect time for sleeping.

10. The stages of a good sleep… it’s almost hypnotic.

11. “Almost 18 years old and still sleeping with the toy frog she’s had for 14 years.”

12. Some people like feather pillows… this cuts out the middleman.

14. We like funny sleep photos too.

15. Even a cat and a rat both know that sleep is more important than any silly rivalry.

16. There’s no better mommy-baby bonding than a good nap.

17. He couldn’t decide on a slumber party or a pizza party.

18. Bunnies… they can find dreamland in the palm of your hand.

19. What do you think sheep count to fall asleep?

20. Always go to bed with a smile.
