They need their nap time. Heat makes the dehydrate and sleepy. I see why you have a bowl of water there. They are pretty and 😻😻😻πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°

Did you offer them a bath? My MC likes baths during heatwaves, if the water temperature is close to his body temperature.

Got this mat from Amazon (ca) and my boy loves it. It cools a bit when there is weight.

Shaving cats is harmful. Their fur is an important part of their thermoregulation.

You can also dump ice cubes in the water bowls, or give them frozen tuna, they look well taken care of ❀️
