Emily is know for having some, ahem, creative ways of snuggling/sleeping. She puts her feet above her head, she sleeps speedily, she sleeps slowly, she sleeps on a couch, in a box, on an ottoman, anywhere, everywhere, and every which way. But now, taking after her bat-brethren (her bathren if you will) she has experimented with sleeping UPSIDE DOWN!!! Curling her small fur-covered body tightly and swiveling her neck all the way around, she accomplishes the ultimate snuggling position. Though her time upside down is short lived (she quickly reverted to a more conventional, horizontal orientation for her body) she reports that it was "a very successful experiment" and that she "can't wait to try it again."
When asked to narrate her experience with upside down snuggling, Emily had this to say:
"You know how the skinwings (aka bats) are? They just hang there ready for lift off. Even in their sleep they can detach and flap after their insect prey. I hope that by being upside down I can see the world as they do -- the infinite possibilities that come with having a floor for a ceiling. Also, vampires are like bats right? I think I read that somewhere. Either way, I am totally into being like vampires. They are so cool. Upside down is the way to be. Upside down FOREVERRRRR!!! Okay, time to sleep like normal now."
