cat napper

Feline theft perpetrator

A cat napper is someone who takes brief, light naps—like a cat dozing throughout the day rather than sleeping in one long stretch.

The term plays on the similarity to catnapper (one who steals cats), but refers instead to the feline habit of frequent short sleeps: I'm not a deep sleeper, more of a cat napper.
