Global Zoomies Forecast

Jumping cat illustration

Frenetic random activity periods (FRAPs), also known as zoomies or midnight crazies, are random bursts of energy occurring in cats. The Museum of Cats maintains reference households in cities across the world where domestic zoomies activity is monitored. Based on local observations, regional zoomies forecasts are produced by interpretation and application of the Feline Relativistic Agitation Propagation Theorem.

Submit a Zoomies Event

The Museum is advancing zoomies science through global data collection. Submit zoomies events to support the research.

Current Situation

Routine domestic calm persists across most monitored households, with isolated dusk-side agitation under review.

    Methodology

    Expand

    The Museum of Cats has issued global zoomies forecasts since 1974, following the publication of the Feline Relativistic Agitation Propagation Theorem, which first formalised the relationship between household light conditions, corridor geometry, and spontaneous domestic acceleration across monitored urban subject populations.

    In practical terms, the model combines local time, seasonal dawn and dusk timing, recent behavioural intensity, and short-range recovery patterns to estimate when monitored subjects are most likely to enter loaf, pursuit, corridor, or active zoomies states.

    Forecasts are then moderated against corridor exposure, human sleep probability, post-litter-tray propulsion behaviour, furnishing compliance, and other recognised domestic turbulence factors, after which the Museum considers the resulting guidance fully adequate for routine preparedness and object protection.

    Confidence note: Near-term directional confidence is moderate; household-level outcomes remain probabilistic, especially around dusk transitions and post-litter administrative anomalies.
