How much should my cat sleep?

It seems like my cat sleeps all the time. Is that normal? How much sleep do cats need?

Cats sleep approximately 16-18 hours a day. 75% of the sleep period is light (catnaps) and the remaining 25% is deep sleep. It may appear your cat is sleeping all the time because he may be awake at night. Feed a good meal in the evening to help him sleep better at night. Eventually hel'll adjust to your schedule. However if you suspect something is wrong, please take him for a checkup at the vet.
