Cats yawn for a variety of reasons, and it's not always directly related to being tired like it is for humans. Here's a breakdown:
Sleepiness: Just like us, cats do yawn when they're sleepy. It can be a sign they're winding down or waking up. *Sleepiness
Increasing Oxygen Intake: A yawn can increase the amount of oxygen in the blood. If a cat feels a bit sluggish, it might yawn to perk itself up. *Increasing%20Oxygen%20Intake
