Most wild and domesticated cats nap or sleep during the day. They do this to conserve energy in hot climates. Housecats continue this behavior from their wild cat ancestors. When awake, they eat, drink, use the litter box, and play. But whether big or small, wild or domesticated, cats are most active at night.
