Around 16 hours seems to be the average, but young kittens and senior cats can snooze even longer: around 18 hours a day. Many people believe their kittens are nocturnal and are awake and active all through the night. This is not true. Cats are crepuscular animals.
These are the times a cat in the wild would tend to hunt. Your cat's age greatly affects his activity level. Young kittens, under 1 year old, tend to sleep more than adult cats while they are still growing. Newborn kittens actually sleep most of the day for their first few weeks of life. Senior cats, over 7 years old, slow down and sleep more than their younger counterparts. Conditions like arthritis and other joint issues tend to impair your older cat's mobility, making him more apt to sleep for a longer period of time.
