Did you know that during the COVID-19 pandemic, there was a pet adoption blast? Numerous families fostered pets to have companionship, reduce feelings of anxiety, and make life more tolerable during this troublesome time. It's easy to understand why so many people are bringing canine and feline friends into their lives. Pets are lovable and attentive, bringing such a lot of bliss into our lives with their sweet natures. However, adopting a pet is not a simple thing, particularly when you don't live alone.
This list has been designed for anyone who’s hoping to get a cat but is dealing with an unwilling partner or flatmate. If they’re more interested in a dog (or no pet at all), the stories in this article should change their mind. We're certain they'll alter their perspective instantly once they’ve discovered the 39 reasons why cats make great pets!
Cats are great chefs!
All things considered, that is clearly false, but they sure do look adorable wearing a chef’s hat! One of the primary things you need to know about felines is that they look astonishing when you dress them up in outfits.
Also, who wouldn’t want to have a feline strolling around the house looking charming the entire day? You will have the delight of watching your kitty playing around the house looking sweet and lovable in the costumes you pick out for them.
It’s basically like having a lion as a friend
You most likely realize that cats are all members of the same family. There are cats of different colors and sizes, but if you give close consideration, you'll see that they all share very similar attributes.
Really, it’s not an exaggeration to say that lions and felines are cousins! The fun part of owning a cat is figuring out which of its wild cousins it most resembles. Is your cat a tiger at heart? Or is it more of a lynx or a snow leopard?
Cats have charming eyes!
Most people have seen the film Shrek and its sequel. One of the most unforgettable characters was the charming Puss in Boots. His trick for disarming people was the most adorable thing we’ve ever seen on the silver screen.
The charming kitten beginner pack comes with a set of adorable big eyes, very much like those belonging to the feline in the image above! All a cat lover needs to do is show this picture to their resistant friends or family members, and minds will be changed in an instant.
They snooze like babies!
We're certain that this next photo needs no description. All we will say is that if you think felines look charming when they're messing about, you're not prepared to perceive how much cuter they are when they nod off!
Take a gander at those charming little teeth! Let's face it: cats are just as adorable as human babies – the only distinction is that they will not randomly awaken anyone at night with their crying!
Felines have the craziest facial expressions!
While many people claim that felines always look pensive while dogs are cheerful, that is far from true. Cats can be just as amusing as dogs, and they have a wide range of expressions that can charm even the most committed dog lover. This gallery of pictures says everything.
In the upper left photo, the cat is reacting to its owner’s scolding. In the rest of the images, a different cat is being super dramatic as he's taken to the washroom for a bath. How cute.
Cats are flexible creatures
Felines appreciate being alone, and they don't need a ton of room to live happy and contented lives. Isn't it obvious? When a feline wants to sleep or relax in a spot of sunshine, the absence of room is never an issue as they'll gleefully position themselves inside whatever container you happen to have around.
There’s never really a need to stress over getting them an extravagant bed – when cats see cardboard boxes lying around, they make a beeline for them. Indeed, this has been a frustrating realization for many cat owners who forked out for expensive beds that are mostly ignored.
They still look cute even when they’re making a mess
Babies make an enormous amount of mess at mealtimes, regardless of what species they happen to be. However, they somehow manage to still look adorable. Kittens take this to a whole new level, turning even the grossest mess into an “aww” moment.
We're not here to deceive anyone: felines love playing with toys, so they will undoubtedly make a mess around the house at some point. Yet, rather than making anyone distraught, their behavior will simply bring a smile to everyone’s face because they’re just so darned lovable.
Cats can be loyal companions
There are two things everyone should know about felines: they're small and they’re flexible! Also, they make the most of the gifts Mother Nature gave them, which is why they're experts at sneaking off and disappearing or fitting themselves into tiny spaces. Being little and tricky has other advantages: they can follow their owner anywhere, and nobody will see them!
Well, most people won’t see them! The person who took this picture clearly saw what was going on under the woman’s hoodie. This subtle feline chose to follow his human into town and stowed away under her hoodie as though nobody would see him.
They’re loving and sweet
Many people complain that felines are too self-reliant and that they're simply not that into sharing the love with their human housemates. While that might be true for certain cats, it doesn't apply to the entire species! Many cats adore their owners and give them plenty of love!
Just because they're not as effusive as canines, doesn't mean cats are cold and heartless. All cats have their own personalities, so if a person takes the time to get to know the kittens they’re considering for adoption, it’s not hard to find one who’s on the same page when it comes to love and affection.
Cats are always camera-ready
Social media fans know that 'animal influencers' are the latest craze. Many pets now have their own Instagram accounts where their owners post photos of them going about their daily schedules.
Why shouldn’t these beautiful creatures have their time in the spotlight? Cats are such regal creatures, and they love to pose. Look how photogenic the felines in the image above are.
Their toes are the cutest
Most people don’t really think about looking too closely at a cat’s toes. However, to overlook this feature is to miss one of the most adorable things about cats. The lower part of their paws is soft and defined. These paw pads look like little butter beans, hence the cute nickname "toe beans"!
Taking a look at these photos alone ought to be sufficient motivation for anyone who’s been on the fence about adopting a feline friend. Those toe beans are super soft and it’s the cutest thing in the world when a cat decides to show them to you.
Cats are affectionate
While the facts demonstrate that felines don't mate forever, they're still friendly with those they love. The following picture shows the ideal exhibition of that warmth. Adopting two cats instead of just one is a recipe for endless love and affection in the home. How adorable can life get?
At the end of the day, having two felines at home will bring everyone twice as much euphoria as just one feline would! The cats will never feel lonely, and they’ll be able to keep each other entertained when no one else is home. It’s really the perfect setup.
Cats are well-behaved and tolerant
When felines are raised with affection and consideration, they generally grow up to be truly respectful. This is why they're more popular than canines among people who live in condos.
Just look at this cat behaving itself while its owner does silly things with its hair. This cute kitty was so well-behaved that it sat still in the hairdresser’s chair while its well-being it a mohawk. You don’t get much more tolerant than that!
The more cats, the merrier
Here’s a brilliant suggestion: If one feline will bring euphoria, and two will bring endless joy, why not foster even more? Estimates show that over three million cats enter animal shelters in America each and every year.
It pains us to think about these honest and sweet little animals being deserted – and that is the reason adopting animals is so important. Anyone who has the capacity to care for a pet should consider adoption as there are so many little creatures in need. Just look at those big innocent eyes!
Cats are dextrous
Did you know that cats can travel at velocities of up to 30 mph (roughly 48,3 km/h) – that is considerably quicker than Usain Bolt's world record of 44,72 km/h!
Felines are unfathomably quick when they need to get a mouse, for example, but there's another event when they move even faster – the moment you call their name! Many cats love cuddles, and they never pass up the chance of being petted!
Cats can wink
Did you know that felines can wink? When they need to sneakily disclose that everything is going according to plan, they may just use a subtle wink to get the message across. This may sound crazy, but winking truly is a method felines use to communicate with their owners!
Researchers say that if a feline winks at you, this is a way of communicating that they're not feeling compromised by your presence. Winking implies that they have a sense of safety and security with you. How cute is that?
They want to be with you all the time
Felines love being the focal point of attention, particularly when their humans are caught up with accomplishing something significant, like working or reading a book. Felines are confident creatures, and they love having all eyes on them. What they crave most of all, though, is the attention of their masters.
To them, it doesn't make any difference if their owner is working on an important report or reading a gripping book prior to hitting the hay – they'll hop on that book or commandeer the PC and demand the attention they crave.
They sleep in the cutest positions
When felines nod off, they often rest like normal creatures, but some of the time they contort themselves into the craziest postures during their naps. Furthermore, just like canines, felines have dreams. This is why they move around when they're snoozing.
It’s impossible to look at this image and not feel your heart melt with love. This cute feline is catching up on her sleep in such an adorable way that it makes us want to cuddle her through the screen!
Cats have the cutest tummies
If you give an excessive amount of food to your pet, they'll get pudgy in the blink of an eye. While that is not really great for their well-being, there’s no denying the fact that they look lovable when they have little pot bellies! For example, we could gush all day about how adorably this sleepy fat kitty looks.
There are so many subtleties to examine in this image, yet what truly grabs our attention is how the cat is lying charmingly on a shelf and how his belly is suspended between the shelves.
They also get envious
Anyone with kids knows how envious they can get if one sibling seems to be getting more attention than the others. Cats can be just the same. If a family gets more than one feline, they must be careful not to give either one more attention than the other. Failing to do so can result in this:
There’s no denying the look in those eyes. This poor cat is desperate for some love. Watching another cat get the pats it desires must be heartbreaking.
Cats are incredibly stylish
Felines are easily the coolest of all animals. Their autonomy and self-assuredness are outstanding, however, felines have another trademark that ought to get more attention: they're always on-trend!
Felines look great in any color, and the picture above is proof. The cat in the image above looks more than cool as he sports the shades of the rainbow! This image proves that design is never an issue when a cat is in the house: it'll rock any look!
They possess amazing features
In general, cats are charming – and we love everything about them! However, of all their lovable attributes, four things stand out above the rest: their faces, their noses, their teeth, and their paws!
Their tiny teeth, their charming noses, and the way their adorable eyes squeeze shut when they rest – this is all the justification anyone needs to adopt a cat today.
Cats are clingy (but in a good way)
Despite what people may say, felines are adorable, and they're full of love and cuddles. If a person loves their cat and raises it in a decent environment, the animals will clearly cherish them – although there will be times when it needs its space.
Also, each and every moment of warmth and love that they share with their owner will be extraordinary. This clingy feline who can’t get enough of her owner is the perfect example.
Cats are beach lovers
Felines aren't the greatest devotees of water. The thing is, they can't actually help it – a cat's skin isn't as "waterproof" as a dog's; subsequently, they get a lot colder when they exit the water. Nonetheless, abhorring water doesn't at all imply that felines disdain the beach.
See how cheerful this feline looks as he appreciates a day at the beach? This means all the beach lovers out there can reconsider their pet adoption strategy and include cats on the list of possibilities.
Cats have adorable paws
It’s pretty clear at this point that we’re obsessed with cat paws – and we're not even embarrassed to admit it! Felines are lovable inside and out, and their tiny, soft paws are even cuter! Just look at this next picture!
That pawprint is so tiny and perfectly formed. The cute little paws of a cat are really sensitive to cold temperatures, which is why felines despise strolling around in the snow. This cat gave it a go but retreated after just one step. Probably a wise decision!
They are tech-savvy creatures
We can confirm that felines look unbelievably charming when they pose for pictures with PCs. Take a gander at this tiny kitty’s face as it sits close to a laptop! We’re pretty sure we’ve never seen anything cuter.
Let's face it: this image definitely makes us want to foster a kitten right away. Its delightful little face makes it seem as though he was caught playing with the PC when he shouldn’t have been – it's so charming!
Cats can be a person’s best friend too
Life can be dull when we don't have companions who we can depend on. When people think about an animal that could be their best friend, dogs usually come to mind. However, cats can be just as devoted if given the chance.
Cats are amazingly faithful to their owners. They love to participate in whatever’s going on and will often do the most adorable things to be part of the crew. See the image above? How could anyone resist adopting a charmer like that?
They’ll recreate iconic movie scenes with you
Throughout the span of film history, there have been a select number of motion pictures that left a lasting imprint in our collective memory. For example, James Cameron's Titanic will always be a classic. Though the soundtrack was iconic, the scenes between Jack and Rose are what really stick in people’s minds.
Then, of course, there’s The Lion King? While it’s not legal to have a real lion at home, anyone can reenact this classic scene if they have a feline friend in the house.
Cats are great at taking selfies
Selfie lovers, rejoice! With a cat in the house, there’ll be no shortage of photo ops. In fact, some cats are so clever they can handle the smartphone themselves. The kitty in the picture below even knows its best angle!
This cat is taking things a step further by using the main camera, not the front-facing camera. It takes a lot of skill to get such a good shot when you can’t even see what you look like. Clever kitty!
Cats look pretty when they sleep
One thing cats all love to do is sleep. After spending hours playing with toys, chasing bugs, and getting pats, cats love indulging in a good snooze. They do need to recharge their batteries, all things considered.
We’d be surprised if anyone could resist adopting this cat and giving it a loving home. There are, after all, few things in the world more adorable than a sleeping cat.
Cats follow safety guidelines
During the global pandemic, wearing masks when out in public turned into the new ordinary. These protective covers keep us from breathing in virus particles in the air, and that is the reason we should consistently wear them.
In any case, who said that pets don't need to wear masks? Look how charming this feline is with his tiny mask? The look on his face says “I’m enduring this because I love you, but I won’t put up with it for long.”
Cats have the cutest yawns
We feel the most tranquil when we nod off. Dozing is extraordinary for our physical wellbeing as well as for our psychological wellness – and that is the reason we need to sleep for 6-8 hours a day.
Though we humans tend to drool, snore, and be otherwise undignified when we sleep, cats have their snoozing game dialed in. Whether they’re nodding off or waking up, cats look extra sweet when they yawn.
They love bunk beds
Of course, we realize that having a pet at home equates to having additional costs for the duration of its life. However, the friendship, devotion, and love that pets offer are precious. All things considered, raising a feline is worth the extra expenditure.
If space in the home is an issue, it’s worth considering the fact that cats are perfectly happy to sleep in bunk beds. This is the cutest sleeping arrangement we’ve ever seen, and it certainly saves on space!
Cats are squishy
We don't know why, but people love touching soft things. When we see a kid with chubby cheeks, the main thing we want to do is squish them. With pudgy felines, the inclination is similar! Look at this next picture:
See how pudgy and squishy that feline looks? Cats have soft paws and bodies, making it impossible to resist squishing and cuddling them. Ready to adopt a cat now?
Cats are great guardians
Cats are regularly described as autonomous, cold, and disinterested in their owners. In reality, felines can be just as loyal as canines! What's more, they're defensive of their masters.
Cats can be protective. The only problem is, they can get a little too close for comfort. For this reason, it’s best to let the well-meaning kitty sleep in another room. Families with babies should be particularly careful to keep the cat out of the baby’s room at nap times.
Cats will entertain you
Who would’ve thought a cat could appreciate Beethoven and Chopin. Apparently, cats are perfectly capable of enjoying music. For example, the kitten in the picture below is a jazz fan.
Okay, we may be stretching the truth here. Felines can't really become musicians, but this jazz kitty definitely has a thing for the piano. We're almost certain that this lovable cat eventually figured out how to play a note or two!
Cats can be magicians
This clever cat deserves its own special name: Catgician. The picture below looks normal enough at first, but a closer inspection of the cat's paws will reveal its amazing magic trick.
This image is truly unnerving until you figure out what’s going on. This delightful cat sure pulled the trick effectively – we can only imagine what other stunts he has at his disposal!
They have fluffy paws
Felines have cushy paws and soft toe beans that will make anyone’s heart melt just by taking a look at them. Truth be told, we're certain everyone will be heading off to the closest animal shelter when they see this next picture!
Hello, fluffy paws! While not all felines look like puffy marshmallows, they all have soft paws, and that is an extraordinary motivation to have a feline at home!
Cats can harmonize with your things
Anyone considering getting a feline needs to understand that cats love curling up in strange places. They will explore a person’s house and find a way to interact with all their belongings.
The cold surface of the sink was clearly what this kitty needed on a hot day. What's amusing about this is the fact that the pure white cat blends so perfectly with the white vanity. We bet the owners thought she was missing before they discovered her like this!
The timeless feud continues between dog people and cat people. An unbridgeable gap, perhaps! The division is real, but it seems kitties have their own loyal niche. The charge: Felines don't have the same emotional attachment. The defense: They just have a special way of showing it, whether you like it or not!
Fighting Like Cats and Dogs
Depending on how they are socialized, pets of different species can be the best of friends — or worst of foes. The two most common choices are felines and canines. It can be a real hit or miss, with that mix! How are these two doing, as roommates?
It doesn't look good, at present. With injured doggo laying on the couch, it might seem like this is a time to play nice. But carefully stepping right onto his cone, this kitty is as mischievous as ever. Fighting back will be hard now — but just you wait a month, Mr. meow meow!
Next, see the lovable ways cats are total jokers, pranksters, and tricksters!
Feline Fetish
Sure, missing underwear happens from time to time. And urban legends have persisted for years about that black hole that swallows up matching socks. But who would have guessed that there was a very simple explanation, all along? If the problem is on St. George street, the mystery has been solved!
Posting a sign to confess the crimes, this neighborhood got an important update. Perhaps they thought a serial killer was terrorizing the place. Who would have guessed it was a pet with a passion for panties? Verdict: Guilty, as seen here!
It's the Thought That Counts
One shocked cat mama decided to share her experience with the world. Posting on social media, she revealed the latest gift her pet brought home. But in the middle of the night, Diva the cat had some trouble getting her attention for the big moment!
A close look at the note reveals the horrid details, for all to see. A half-dead rodent was dropped in the owner's mouth while she snored. It must have been confusing, in the dark. But every cat lover knows this was an act of affection! Thanks, kitty.
It's Just More Comfy
Pet beds are a nice way to encourage cats and dogs to stay off the furniture. Usually, the trick works! Sometimes, though, there is a bit of competition between the four-legged members of the house. It looks like Mister Meow won the battle, right here!
Dogs are man's best friend, but it seems that this one is a cat's BFF here. So selfless, for all to see. Even though his size could have intimidated his lil' buddy out of the big bed, he took a loss. Sweet canine, crafty feline. Nothing new today!
Cafe Au Kitty
As the old slogan goes, "The best part of waking up is Folgers in your cup." There's just no better way to jumpstart the day! Whether filtered or fancy, caffeine is always there to do the job. It's hard to imagine how the elixir of life could ever be spoiled. Never fear, that's where cats come in!
Felines love to dangle, tease, and swish their tails all day, every day. But here, for whatever reason, the temperature sensor is broken! Delayed reaction? Passive aggression? Either way, it's very unappetizing!
Puke Patrol
After a night of drinking who-knows-what, college kids everywhere hit the toilet. And not for number one or number two. It's the place to empty their guts, mouth-style! Here, a nearby cat decides to observe as a barf buddy. Just for safety, of course.
As she leans over the seat, her furry friend sees an opportunity for his own seat. The back is warmer than the bathroom floor, of course! Will the purring encourage a bit of movement here? The jury is still out on that, like so many cat mysteries on the net. Meow!
Wet and Wild
When it's time to wash off all that stress from the workday, many people really enjoy their shower time. It's release and refreshment, in the best way. Add in a loofah and a little aromatherapy, and it can be a real lifesaver! What about introducing a cat, or two?
Honestly, it sounds a bit chaotic. Here, it's tested: One cat leaps into action and attacks the curtain. The other watches, keeping guard. And the poor victim inside? All he can do is spray water as a defense. Luckily, most kitties hate the stuff!
Purring on the Pooper
One might expect that a gal could use the John in peace, in her own home. But cat owners know that personal space means purr-sonal space, even in the bathroom!
Sure, it's an invasion of privacy. But these two friends have decided to say hi in this foul room, even with their super-strong sense of smell. True love, it is — no matter what the Fido fanatics say!
Plaster Disaster
According to the pros in the know, concrete takes 1 to 2 days to be dry enough to walk or drive on the new surface. But it doesn't totally solidify in that time. Some recommendations include waiting for 30 days to park a car. Today, a cat has weighed in on that very advice. What does he think about it?
Today, a hard lesson was learned. That fresh driveway wasn't hard, at all! It seems this feline did not hear about the warnings. Just in the first few steps, things got pretty sticky and icky!
What's That Flavor
Cooking is a daily ritual for many, and a passion for some. But can this skill really be cultivated with an animal poking around? One owner revealed her challenges with a pet photo online: ''Turned my back for a minute and she peed in 20 cups of uncooked rice."
Many cats urinate all over the house to make their territory. But this little guy? His excellent training meant he saw a litterbox and jumped right into action. It's a good thing he was caught in the act, of course!
Master of His Castle
Imagine receiving this note from the handyman, after a long day at work. The pipes are loose and the toilets are falling apart, but nothing can be done. Why, was the wrong maintenance requested? Nay, they say: "Black cat said no''' to the strange men with tools!
The note doesn't go into great detail, but it's easy to imagine the harassment. Hissing, scratching, and even peeing might have gotten in the way of a good fix. Plumbers already have plenty of stinky occupational hazards. This was just too much, in the end!
Fatcat Frenemy
Getting into a regular workout routine is hard enough, with the busy lives people lead. Sometimes it's impossible to make it to the gym, and that's understandable. One girl decided to pursue fitness at home, opting for pushups. A decent plan, but what happened next?
In the middle of good form, the attack began. Jumping right on her head, this flying furball went right for her eye and scalp. A one-two punch, and hard to beat! Some friends just don't want to see others succeed. Apparently, some pets don't either!
Cats in the Cradle
Forty winks are easier said than done. Millions have trouble sleeping, and that's a big deal! Whether it's sleep apnea or a case of blue light late at night, docs say it's worth investigating the source of the problem. One man decided to do exactly that with a camera. What did he find?
Explaining that he often felt he had trouble breathing, the footage explained a lot. No underlying health problems, just an overbearing snuggler? With the grainy pics, he could see that no cat scan was needed. Just a cat ban!
Sharing is Caring
It's not easy having multiple pets if they don't get along. Humans may love the idea of filling a happy home with fuzzy creatures. But truthfully, in the wild, cats and rabbits would be mortal enemies! How is their relationship going here, all things considered?
Little bunny foo foo has been fooled, yet again. As soon as he hops away from his cozy cage, a visitor trespasses. It doesn't look like the guest is going to leave soon, either. It's time for a catnap, and that might mean all afternoon!
Here Comes the Meow
Weddings are full of quirky traditions, and that's unlikely to change! From the role of flower girl to the tossing of the bouquet, there's a certain order to things. Even if no one remembers why, it's the big day — and as they say, "Something old, something new, something borrowed, something furry." Don't they?
The bride has that covered, with a cat accessory — on the train of her gown, in fact. She doesn't who judges her along the way, on her special day. Not even the photobomber on the right!
Puss in the Pie
Yogi bear made his name sneaking around windows and stealing pies. Delicious, steaming, and ready to eat, he did it unimpeded for decades right on TV. Today, it looks like there is a new culprit in town: A pawed, pastry vandal! What was the plan here?
It appears there was no real effort to run off with the dough. Perhaps that is because the crime was too early! Leaving a clue behind, what kind of creature tried to interfere here? Looks like a cat. But unless this was mincemeat, it's doubtful more would have been munched!
He Steals Meals
Sure, it's wrong — but sometimes, it's hard to blame a thief for thieving. No one would put a fox in charge of guarding the henhouse. Why did this owner put a cat in charge of watching the takeout? When there are eggs involved, all bets are off!
Truthfully, even some people would be tempted to snap up one of these! It's not every day that whites and yolks look like such perfect delicacies. She probably let her pet enjoy the loot. But a selfie was in order, at least!
Cat and Mouse Game
Thoughtfully selected gifts are part of any loving relationship, in between cuddles. Pets love to do it, too! One social media user decided to share the highlight of her day with friends online. She explained: ''Cat left my husband a present this morning." How charming!
It's a laugh, this way. But imagine if he didn't see it! Getting dressed in the dark, early in the morning, many husbands might be in a rush for work. A squish in the shoe is never a good feeling. Whatever it is, it was probably once alive!
One Man's Trash, Another Cat's Treasure
Cigarette boxes, empty cans, and shredded bags don't sound exciting to explore. But looks can be deceiving when it comes to a mysterious, full can of garbage. What's really hiding inside? One bored cat decided to check it out, and he's not sorry he did! A quick flick of the paw and it all came tumbling out for an afternoon of fun.
It's a disaster, from a human perspective. But this bad boy probably knows that someone will clean it up after he slinks away. For now, he's guarding his work and hissing at trespassers. Stay away, Mr. mop!
Construction Cat-astrophe
A lot of things could benefit from a fresh paint job, once and a while. Cities included! With so many feet on the ground, the old marks get worn down, over time. This crosswalk, for example, was due for a fixer-upper. How did that go?
It looks like all the lines were painted correctly, the first time around. A success, by any standard of crosswalk! But at some point, a city resident decided to ignore the warning cones and try out the new path. By the looks of it, the culprit is a kitty!
Cat vs. Cake
The tradition of cake and candles is an old one, dating back to ancient Greece. At some point, people started making blowing them out, making wishes, and singing songs around it, too. There's no doubt about it: Birthdays are a happy time, frosting and all!
These days, it's even an office norm. But as startups trying to be hip begin to keep office pets, there are bound to be some mishaps. Fun fact: A simple housecat can vertically jump five feet or more. Who thought this short shelf would help? Cakes and cats collide, in this workplace!
Booty Call
Worldwide quarantine for COVID-19 meant that many students had to learn how to learn again. This time, a lot was virtual. Home high school was a challenge, at times! Here, one girl decided to let her kitty join in on the fun. How did that turn out?
Why it seems her entire got an eyeful. And a butt-full! Cats definitely don't have the same sensibilities, when it comes to cameras. It's like they don't even care who sees their business. By the look on her face, though, this teen sure does!
Look What the Cat Dragged In
Yes, housecats are domesticated. But they used to be ferocious killers, out in the wild! Their instinct to stalk and retrieve still kicks in, on occasion. Here, one social media user observed it all in the act. She explained: ''My cat just came back from one of her evenings strolls with someone else's keys in her mouth."
Good thing someone noticed before the next stage. Was the idea to bury these for a rainy day? No one quite knows why this keychain was a target, but it certainly made a good Reddit post!
Salad Slumbering
Internet videos galore show that cats and boxes are just meant to be. Can't have one without the other, if puss has anything to say about it. Here, one owner probably didn't think the issue was in play. After washing lettuce in a small carton, this scene was hard to anticipate!
While the lunch may need a plan B, this nap does not. It's cozy, people! Maybe it even reminds a domestic animal of the past, in nature. Sleeping on fresh leaves is normal, if anyone bothers to ask the cat!
What a Weiner
Summertime means barbeques across the great fruited plain. And that means a whole lot of savory meats! One innocent family decided that sausages would taste better grilled outside, charcoal style. Little did they know that the apex predator of the neighborhood was lurking, and ready to pounce!
Anyone can see the appeal: It's a giant, fat, brat. A better question is, how could anyone leave this unguarded? There's only so much time before the wind gets to work, wafting the scent around the block. And then, all bets are off!
Let the Cat Out of the Bag
Sure, cats love boxes. But who knew that they also loved bags or bread? This little creature decided to let his owners know the truth, hiding away with the buns. Hopefully, after a good brush. No one wants to cough up furballs from a sandwich!
Soon, he will be banished from the bag. But for now, this little fluff thinks he is out of sight, out of mind. It can be hard to get privacy with roommates, truth be told. But the bag is plastic on one side, kitty. Everyone can see you, clearly!
Super Like, All Night
Many would assume leaving a smartphone unlocked around a pet would be no big deal. After all, they don't even have fingers to get into trouble with the device. The idea makes sense, in theory. But how wrong one guy turned out to be, with a curious cat!
On Reddit, one user explained how he was blocked by many of his friends on social media. Was it something he said, while drunk? Nay, it was his pet, who had achieved the impossible. With just a paw, it figured out the like button — times a thousand!
Don't Tell the Brawny Man
It's managed mayhem: Dogs and cats alike love to get into the toilet paper cabinet. Once that roll starts going, there's no stopping it! Something about all that light, fluffy paper just intrigues pets. It's time to accept that reality, and lock the stuff up!
Caught in the act, is this kitten ashamed? It sure doesn't look like it, that's for sure. Chances are, this is just the beginning of a long career of shredding when no one is watching. Today, it's half a roll. But tomorrow, anything can happen!
Bad Hair Day
Gals with long locks know that beauty can be hard to manage. Shampoo, conditioner, blowdry, and more — sometimes those tresses just need a break. That's where the old braid comes in: With frisky felines, it can be an invitation for a little yank and pull!
Maybe this owner actually thought this style would be manageable with a frisky friend in the house. How wrong she was! It's all consolidated into the perfect chew toy, and now the chomping begins. Thankfully Rapunzel never had a cat in that tower, right?
Butt Why
Setting a sandwich down on the counter can be a risky endeavor, with cats in the house. They tend to enjoy dairy and meat, to no one's surprise. It wouldn't be the strangest thing to find them licking a slice of cheese. But this situation captured on film is quite odd!
It's clear that this recipe has it all: Bread, butter, and cheddar. It would seem to be the perfect treat for a housecat. But this pet does not need a snack. He needs a seat! Open-faced sandwich, take two.
The Secret Stowaway
With a tank full of gas and snacks packed away, dad was hours into a journey across the state. But suddenly hearing a strange sound, he decided to check on the situation. Was it a meow? Yes, indeed it was. And there was a source for all the noise, too!
For whatever reason, this little guy decided to take a catnap in the big van. Maybe it seemed like a private place to get to some Z's, at the time. As the old song goes: The cat came back, the very next day. Dad will just have to check, from now on!
Cluck, Cluck, Meow
What kind of chicken is this? A housecat with an instinct to keep eggs warm? Generations of farmers know felines terrorize the henhouse! Internet users were pretty confused, overall. The Reddit victim explained: ''Five beds and ten chairs in the house. He sits on the eggs.''
Just like a kitty to find the one spot where no one wants him. Few would hold the owner accountable for this coming mess, though. It's a world first to find a feline that thinks it's a mama bird, but the internet has it all!
Best Thing Since Sliced Bread
Here, a busy cat lover stepped away from the bagels all day. What happened next? He explained: ''The cat was mad we weren't home to feed her dinner, and got back at us by ripping apart a pack of bagels and taking a tiny bite out of each one.''
Who knew that cats even had an interest in bread? Most are picky about which brand of canned food they are willing to eat. They're spoiled! Maybe that's the point, though. Leaving this boy alone all day required a new cry for attention!
A Puzzling Cat-titude
Jigsaws are a timeless way to keep the mind sharp. These brain teasers can be enjoyed by all ages, but they do require commitment. The more complicated ones can take weeks to do properly, but that feeling of accomplishment is like nothing else. Here, a cat collides with the hobby. Was he into it, just like his humans?
No, he really wasn't. It seems his own passion is still cleaning himself. Can a simple puzzle get in the way of a bath? Anywhere and everywhere, it is a lifelong project!
Meow, Right Meow
Sure, cats may have a reputation for being semi-social loners, or independent personalities. But today, an exception has been found! The owner explained on Reddit: ''My cat just bit the corner of my MacBook and now my screen is cracked." What could have led to this electronic tragedy?
Depending on the breed, some cats can actually be quite needy. Evidently, this is one of those cats — and he's not beating around the bush! Browsing the net seemed innocent enough. But when snuggles are requested, it's not a suggestion!
The Cat Came Back
There are outdoor cats and indoor cats, and people decide early on how things are going to flow. For those kitties that are allowed to explore the world, they have a remarkable ability to find their way home. When it doesn't happen, it is quite worrying!
The owner captioned her photo on a feline forum: ''Went missing yesterday. Came home tonight about two hours after I'd printed the expensive flyers. Jerk.'' All things considered, it's a miracle! But does he look like he's sorry for the scare? Not in the least, honestly!
In the Claw-set
IAs Ernie from Seasame Street sang: ''One of these things is not like the others. One of these things just doesn't belong. Can you tell which thing is not like the others, by the time I finish my song?'' It's clear he was looking at this photo, right here. A quick scan reveals the answer. A cat scan, actually!
Blender, food processor, toaster, blender and — what's that? A cat? Right at the end, there is a very sneaky visitor in the cabinet. Prank rank: Meow out ten. Purr-fect idea!
Snug as a Bug in a Rug
There's nothing like a pal that is always there, when things get tough. As the old song went: ''Lean on me, when you're not strong. And I'll be your friend. I'll help you carry on.'' Is this the friend orange cat has been looking for, all this time?
No, it cannot be. This is a sneak attack of some sort. Grey kitty has an issue to sort out. Trapping his roommate under a curtain is going to force the negotiation. Whatever the dispute is, there's no escape now. No escape meow!
Meow Will Tear Us Apart
The age old question persists: What is it about cats and toilet paper, antytway? Experts do have a few theories on the matter. Domesticated animals have lost many of their orignaol instincts. But every once and awhile, they need to exercise their desires!
Today, one owner returned to see a real wreck in progress. Scraps and chunks litter the room, and there seems to be no remorse. Kitty here doesn't have enough opportunities for her hunter instincts. That's where the TP comes in. Hide the rolls, or prepare for some serious shredding!
Don't Stair at Me
Why, what's this? Going down or heading up has a new element, in this house. Hiding in plain sight, a prankster has decided to become a step on the stairs. Blending in perfectly, no one will anticipate the surprise. But will it be the silly time this fluffer hopes?
Squishy pets should avoid this idea, all laughs considered. One slipper out of place, and it's going to be all yowls. It's rare to find a funny feline, for whatever reason. Today's stumble and kick might be the end of this cat comedian!
