Ten Animals in Pyjamas Who Are Just About Ready for Bed

People often ask me how I come up with these seemingly random top 10’s. Well most of them come about because of a single image or blog post, some get done because someone else suggested it, and others come about because of a previous post I had done. That is where this one comes into it because after seeing how much people enjoyed my post “Top 10 Best Images of Cats In Pyjamas” I decided to see if other animals wear Pyjamas and it seems they do and here are the very best ones I could find…

9 – “Of course I am in my pyjamas because I am a sloth, we are always sleepy!”

FACT: Satoshi Kanazawa examined ethnographies of hunter-gatherer groups, and found that nocturnal activities were relatively rare in these societies. Since smart people are more likely to behave evolutionary novel ways, he theorized that higher IQ individuals were more likely to be night owls.

8 – “You need to have a baby or something because this is getting ridiculous!”

FACT: A cross-cultural study of 2.4 million users of social media showed that people post the most positive messages on twitter around two hours after waking. Since a positive mood is important for “physical and emotional well-being, working memory, creativity, decision-making, and immune response” it’s probably best to schedule difficult tasks around this time.

5 – “Who brought me?…Justin Bieber?!? Never heard of her.”

FACT: When it’s time to sleep, your body produces a hormone called melatonin.  While all forms of artificial light damage melatonin production, the blue light of your computer screen or plasma television has a particularly large negative impact.  Staying off the web in the hours before bed is a smart move.

4 – “I little bedtime snack and a glass of milk, then off to bed!”

FACT: When you sleep, blood flows from the abdomen into your extremities, bringing down your overall body temperature. The water evaporating from your skin after a shower mimics this effect, leading to drowsiness. You can also mimic the heat flow to your extremities by placing a hot water bottle at your feet.
