"When a material is heated, the kinetic energy of that material increases and it's atoms and molecules move about more. This means that each atom will take up more space due to it's movement so the material will expand.
When it is cold the kinetic energy decreases, so the atoms take up less space and the material contracts." Physics and Astronomy Online.

For the Maine Coons - the elongated stretch vs. the snail curl is dependent on if a human is available to lounge on, if the alpaca cat throw is out or at what level the heat is on. This will also determine if there is solo sleeping or co-joined nesting going on.
Aren't they sweet when they're sleeping? Just look at those little white tummies and toes.
