The start of summer means Australians are heading for any relief they can to escape the heat – even some of the local fauna.
Cleopatra the wombat was caught by her carer sleeping in a very uncompromising position.
The 33-kilogram marsupial was found lying on her back alongside the toilet, before shifting over once disturbed.

The video was posted to the Sleepy Burrows Wombat Sanctuary’s YouTube page.
‘Cleopatra, c’mon you’ve got to wake up fatty,’ the carer says as she scratches her stomach to wake her up.
The wombat begrudgingly turns over and takes a moment, before scurrying out of the bathroom.
‘I hope it was at least a long nap,’ one person commented on the video.
‘I wouldn’t mind sharing the loo with Cleopatra. She’s so cute!’ another said.

Sleepy Burrows works to rehabilitate orphaned or injured wombats and help them recover the strength to return to the wild.
The sanctuary, located just north of Canberra over the New South Wales border, looks after juvenile and injured wombats from around the country.
The marsupials require round-the-clock care to make it back to the wild at the youngest age of 18 months old.
