nappers
Those catching zzz's
Nappers are people who take naps—short periods of sleep, usually during the day.
The word appears in discussions of sleep habits: Serial nappers swear by the afternoon rest.
A napper can also be someone who naps fabric, raising a soft surface on cloth, though this sense is rare.
