    • You have a very comfortable kitchen.

    • I have a siamese that also likes cabinets and under the sink, go figure i don’t even like sticking my hands under there and he spends hours under there. I don’t think that it’s a special breed thing I think it’s a cat thing, call a dog it will come, call a cat and it will decide.

      Because it’s a quiet, dark place where he can sleep during the day and he knows he’ll be left alone there. He’ll especially feel this way if there are kids in the house.
      Our cats get into our floor cabinet whenever we leave it open for too long.

    • If hes inside something he feels more secrure. Its also possible he might be stressed from something and trying to hide.

    • my siamese does that too………she’s always in the cabinets with the towels………..

    • Aren’t those guys clever though! My Siamese would climb up on a desk and push on the patio door handle enough to move the door open so he could go outside. Then, of course, the other cats would go out too. The Siamese wasn’t clever or considerate enough to close the door.
      Sounds like your guy has found a perfect nap place. Protected on three sides from anyone interfering with his nap. Dark and cozy, does he sleep in a pot?

    • instictivley they seek safety and security at resting time.A den..

    • It is quite and dark in the cabinet and he feels safe. Don’t worry cats sleep alot.I am sure he stlii loves you. but cats are kinda like men they always think of themselfs first.

    • The tempurature is probably more comfy in there and cats like small dark places to curl up in

    • If he’s in there all day long then you might want to take him to a Vet to get him checked out, but I know my pet likes to crawl into and under small dark places for the security.
      Anytime it starts thundering outside, my dog crawls under the couch, which she can barely fit under, and hides under there until it’s “safe” to come out. She does this because, to her, it’s safe under there

    • My siamese girl like cabinets too. It’s kind of like a kid with a fort – secretive and quiet.

    • My cat does this as well. I believe that it’s the cat’s way of “hiding” in a secret den/house. He can go in there, be in the dark, not be disturbed, and come out when he’s good and ready.
      My cat also does this in my closet. It’s just normal cat behavior. They can see you, but you can’t see them.
      Have a lovely rest of the day.

    • this is temporary…cats often choose places to sleep and it changes from month to month

    • awww i love siamese cats their so cute!but anyways the siamese i had would sleep under the table in this cubby hole
      he would stay there for hours.they just like comfortable like spots that feel safe so dont worry try putting him in the chair with you
      or in the bed if you want to spend more time with him
