Wow, it took me a moment to even see the white cat next to the blanket. My calico used to sleep like that sometimes, but on hot summer days she'd do just the opposite and stretch out like a flying Superman on her belly. We lost her to cancer two years ago and have yet to get another kitty. Miss her. The one on the right looks like a tortie.
Thanks for posting such a cute picture. Wish I could relax like that.

My dog sleeps on his back like that. Usually he's taking up 3/4 of the bed and hogging the pillow, too!

Yep, Chloe does that too. And if I dare try to nudge her over to one side, she growls at me.

My black cat sleeps like that all the time, and usually in the middle of the kitchen table. He's the only cat I've known that loves belly rubs.

They are certainly relaxed.
I have never seen a cat sleep on it's back.

That is some serious relaxation going on there!!!
I had a rabbit once who used to love to snooze by the fire - RIGHT by the fire. Once, he fell asleep, rolled over and rolled right off the 4 inch hearth, and ended up flat on his back, legs sticking up a la' that white cat. And still he continued to snooze away!

I was camping once and we had a big blazing bonfire going, because it was pretty cold and snowing a bit. We were all huddled around the fire and one of my friend's dogs was sleeping blissfully neary the warm (!!!) fire ring. Well, suddenly we all smelled something burning and heard a yelp and poor Griffith jumped up and had a big orange patch on his back where his fur got a bit singed. He had it for quite awhile after that too, it always looked to me like he'd been in a pen with the marked rams (you know when they want to see which ewes are in heat they put the paint patches on the mutton sheep and then you can tell which ones are ready to breed by the patches of paint on their back)
Man, that dog was a serious sleeper. A farter too, that puppy could clear a room in seconds!
Anyway, back on topic, that middle cat cracks me up! I thought it was a blanket at first!
