Sleeve cats are taking over the internet in Japan this winter

Cats love to squeeze themselves into all types of cramped spaces, and this winter, they’re taking up residence inside shirt sleeves.

Lately, Twitter users in Japan have been noticing their cats disappearing around the house when it’s cold, only to discover them snuggled up inside the warmth of a cosy sleeve! It’s all part of the phenomenon called sode neko, or “sleeve cats,” and owners are enthusiastically sharing photos of these feline shenanigans online.
