    Nacho certainly did not get those instructions.

      I’ve got two ambidextrous loafs next to me, I guess.

      It’s just a bias, not a rule. Looks like Nacho may have fallen asleep with leftward bia then half rolled over while asleep ?

        He actually likes to sleep that way. At night he lays next to me, my upper arm between his legs, my hand on his head while his front paws are touching my leg. Belly exposed and not a trap.

        He’s a very weird sleeper

    Study was done by watching YouTube videos.

    Anybody else have phone camera that inverts the the image during processing? I have had a couple over the years.

      Also pretty terrible risk of sampling bias
