despondant meets dependant

When we talk about pets, we're not just talking about fur and whiskers - we're talking about love. The kind that climbs into bed with you after a hard day, purrs beside your aching heart, and says: "You're safe here". For so many of us, especially in times of big change - moving out, starting new jobs, trying to find our place in the world - adopting a cat isn't a small thing. It's the thing. A source of comfort, healing, and consistency when everything else is uncertain.

So it's no wonder that people want to share that love with others. When you care deeply for a cat, you want to introduce them like family. You want the people around you to understand just how much that little creature means. And when someone doesn't get it - or worse, dismisses it - it hurts. It's not just about cats. It's about feeling seen. And feeling like you belong.

Just like the rest of you, we like to spend our free time scrolling through all of our various applications. Instagram is a dear love of ours, but our hearts will always remain with 'X'. Although if we're being purrfectly honest, we still call it Twitter - it just has a better ring to it! Maybe it's just our millennial rebellion, but we liked it better back when they were tweets and not "X posts". Anyway, even if the name has changed, it doesn't mean that all the pawsitively hilarious posts of cats have! We still find our funniest feline posts on X/Twitter, and we wouldn't be I Can Has Cheezburger if we didn't share our furrvorites with you.

Don't waste hours of your time trying to find awwdorable kitten pics or hissterical cat memes - that's our job! And that's exactly why we love X/Twitter, it has a good meow-mix of everything. From wholesome adoption stories to meowrvelous memes, they're all waiting for you below. Happy Sunday!

Greetings, fellow cat pawrents. How's the weekend treating you? More importantly, how's your feline supervisor enjoying having you around 24 hours a day? If there's one thing we know about cats (and trust us, we know cats), it's that they firmly believe weekends should be spent lounging, judging, and being absolutely, unapologetically silly. That's right: your Sunday needs more silliness, and definitely more cats. And the easiest way to deliver on that unspoken feline demand? Surround yourself with all things cat-tastic and scroll your way into some well-earned cozy chaos.

Of course, we get it, not everyone has the privilege of living with 20 cats who've unionized and taken over the living room. That's a special kind of life. But even if you've got just one very opinionated fluffball perched on your lap (or judging you from across the room), you can still meet the quota of cattitude. And that's where we come in - with memes. Sassy, silly, snuggly, and a little unhinged, just like your average housecat at 3 AM.

It's too hot for kitties to be trapped outside! This kitten knew where to find a good AC unit, however, and despite his burnt toe beans and his crispy, melted whiskers, he found the courage and the strength to meow his way into rescue. His calls were answered by a cat lover at home who noticed the baby kitten shaking and skinny on his hot deck. 

But this heatwave wouldn't stop the inferno of love this kitten had in his heart, because he was determined to survive and thrive, basking in the cool breeze of a window AC unit and gazing at the shimmering glow of the oasis on the horizon. 

Get ready to boogie, because it's Caturday Night Fever, baby! The disco ball is spinning, the tuna treats are flowing, and the dance floor (aka your kitchen counter) is packed with party cats.

From toe-bean twirls to tail-shaking shuffles, our feline friends are bringing their best moves. One minute they're striking a purrfect Travolta pose, the next they're mid-air in a zoomie-fueled leap that would make even the most seasoned backup dancer jealous.

You haven't truly lived until you've witnessed a tabby do the Cha Cha Meow or a tuxedo cat moonwalking across hardwood floors like it's Studio 54. And of course, no Caturday dance party is complete without the iconic "flop and roll" followed by a dramatic stare into the void.

Whether they're solo-dancing in the litter box lounge or getting their groove on with a cardboard box partner, one thing's for sure. Cats were born to bust a move.

So crank up the mewsic, throw on your fluffiest outfit, and let your inner cat strut its stuff. Because when the night falls… the paws come out.

Cats! The indelible delight, the memorable delinquent, the Charlton of caricatures all wrapped up in a blanket of soft, warm, pillow hisses and growls. Cats are the best, am I right? Maybe I'm just biased because I'm a cat mom. As much as I love dogs, I just can't get enough of my furry fellow. No, he doesn't always greet me when I come from work, but that's all the fun. We make a perfect duo because his attachment style mirrors mine. I love his silliness, his dripping, deliquescent body falling off of the bed in a moment of liminal rapture. What is going on in those inch worm brains of theirs? 

Cats are ubiquitous, they're everywhere all the time and they aren't going anywhere. If you're someone who claims they don't like cats, we have some advice for you. One, get yourself to a shrink. And two, get yourself a cat. Enjoy these hilarious cat memes while you pet, cuddle, snuggle, and love your furry friend. 

The cat distribution system and feline rescues are often harrowing affairs, that take place in the cold wet night, which is ironic considering how much cats despise the cold and the wet, yet always seem to find themselves embroiled in some sort of action when the weather is so. But thankfully, today's story takes place entirely inside one household, which begs the question of how did the kittens get lost in the first place if they never left the house?

Well, we will tell you, not how it happened, but that this story stands as testament to the incredibly sneaky hiding powers of cat-kind and the lengths to which they will go to make sure that their litter is safe and sound. To the relief of the hooman pawrent, her cat momma gave up the location of her kittens rather easily and quickly, but those moments in between must have been a living nightmare.
