To answer the question posed by our headline: Something astoundingly cute happens when you remove one kitten from a sleepy-kitten pile. (You can take that answer to the bank, should it ever come up on "Jeopardy!")

We're not sure of the circumstances behind this video -- but what we do know is that a visit to YouTube user chibiumeharu's channel yields a wide variety of cat-and-kitten videos, including this very adorable one.

Who knew kittens could sleep so soundly? When we think of a "cat nap," this -- a deep sleep from which this kitten doesn't wake, even to move its paws -- is decidedly not what springs to mind.
