The Niffer is most commonly seen on picnics, in the mountains, cute town hunting, or in a good bakery. However, studying the nocturnal migratory habits of the Niffer has become a recent challenge to local scientists. Until recently, scientists believed that the Niffer participated in the ritual of nightly hibernation periods lasting an average of 7 to 9 hours each night. This conclusion was commonly accepted amongst the scientific community and thus studying the Nifferal nocturnal habits fell off the list of topics considered worth exploring.
Mr. Michael, however, wasn't so convinced and believes that the scientists are completely mistaken in their assumptions. He has spent the last few months studying the strange nocturnal habits of his Niffer and has made some unexplainable discoveries that has caught the interest of the scientific community.
Unlike the traditional Niffer, today's Niffer does not seem to have a nightly hibernation period. Whereas the it was largely believed that the Niffer hibernated through the entire night, it turns out that that the Niffer no longer practices such sleeping patterns. In fact, the Niffer seems to practice no sleeping patterns at all.
One night the Niffer may be found slowly migrating across the bed, rotating between her left and right sides along the way. She'll start out on her right side, snuggling up next to her Niffer boy, then randomly she'll initiate what seems to be an exhausting process to flip over to her left side. She is now on her left side, snuggled up next to her huge U-shaped pillow, with her Niffer boy up against her back. Next, she'll go through another exhausting process to flip back to her right side, but this time there is an additional challenge in her way since she has to pull her entire body up and over the huge U-shaped pillow. Once her goal has been achieved, she seems to settle in for another few hours only to flip to her left side again. She seems to be thankful, though, that this time there is no mountain of pillow to traverse and once again falls peacefully asleep.
An hour or so of peace seems to pass when suddenly a wave of violence consumes the Niffer. It appears that the only thing on her mind is to get the covers off of her as quickly as possible. All the covers must come off NOW! As quickly as it came, the violence goes away. The Niffer once again falls back asleep, oblivious to the freezing temperatures surrounding her.
The next interruption, though less violent, still has a sense of urgency to it, when the Niffer jumps out of bed as quickly as she can (though keep in mind Niffers can't move very fast in today's world) and runs into the bathroom. What she does in there can only be assumed since our cameras are not allowed to follow. When she returns, she seems more relieved and crashes back into bed to sleep some more.
The night continues in a similar fashion... more flipping, sometimes to include taking on the additional challenge of moving up and over the huge U-shaped pillow, but other times not. There seems to be moments of confusion when the Niffer wonders why the heck she's cold and who pulled the covers away from her? But alas, the night continues on until it finally comes to an end. And surprisingly, without fail, the Niffer is finally sleeping peacefully when the alarm clock signals the arrival of the daylight. Fascinating.
It is obvious that these recent discoveries have stirred the scientific community, but is there a pattern? Join us next time when we explore the reasons why sometimes the nocturnal Niffer chooses to not sleep in her bed at all, but instead seems content to sleep sitting straight up in a glider. And what about the guest room? Is that bed ever used? Does the Niffer ever seem indecisive and can't choose between all three locations, thus widening her migratory region to three different bedrooms in a single night? Find out more when we return.
