It seems that Mocha was accustomed to pressing against the nice warm vents. However, the PS5 Pro does not kick out as much heat, disappointing cats but pleasing gamers who don\u2019t like to worry about their console going nuclear.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cats love nothing more than to snuggle up to something nice and warm, as any gamer with a feline friend will tell you. Millcats\u2019 post prompted many other users to respond with photos of their own cats warming themselves on various consoles. It seems that flat-topped consoles in the horizontal position, like the PS4 and Xbox are most popular with cats.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"http:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241114-39904-001.jpeg\" alt=\"Black cat on a PS4\" class=\"wp-image-39909\" srcset=\"https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241114-39904-001.jpeg 900w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241114-39904-001-380x285.jpeg 380w, https:\/\/automaton-media.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/20241114-39904-001-768x576.jpeg 768w\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Image credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/kazumasa200\/status\/1855817250240151757\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Kazumasa200 on X<\/a>.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, it is not good for either your cat or your console to be in close contact with each other for long periods of time.
