'She really seems to prefer us over her owner': Neighbor's cat chooses next-door hoomans as her purr

Posted by Sarah Brown

One sunny day, the neighbor's cat waltzed into this hooman's house, announced her presence with a yell, and made herself right at home, as if she owned the place. With French doors wide open and a cozy garden chaise just begging for a nap, she saw opportunity and seized it like the queen she is.

Since then, she's been more of a live-in guest than a visitor, especially after refusing to cooperate with her official cat sitter while her pawrents were away. Instead of sticking with the sitter and her three fellow housemates, she opted for solo luxury: belly rubs, keyboard lounging, and a calm retreat where she clearly rules the roost.

Now, her favorite hoomans are moving in the spring, and there's a furry dilemma on their hands. They adore her, but they worry she'll be heartbroken without them. Or worse, stuck with new tenants who won't understand the sacred art of the tummy rub. Now they're wondering if they should ask if they can offically adopt her when they move, or just leave her with her original home.

21 Sacred Cat Memes to Worship Under a Full Moon

Posted by Briana Viser

Who knew that cats would not just be worshipped by ancient Egyptians, but also worshiped in our technological modern era? The internet is a cat's throne. From memes and reels, to photos of our furry friends, there's no end in sight to the power and influence these fantastic felines have on our psyche. 

Psyche was a mortal woman in Greek mythology whose beauty was so overpowering that it even rivaled that of Aphrodite's, the goddess of love and beauty. She sent her son, Cupid, to sting her with one of his romantically inclined arrows, but it was he who was stung by love at first sight when he saw her. That's basically how humanity feels about cats. So if you're a cat loving fiend, a kitty cat pet owner, a feline enthusiast who spends his or her free time scrolling through your hundreds of photos of your sacred furball, then these cute and hilarious cat memes are for you.

23-year-old boyfriend jealous of girlfriend’s pet cat after she says she’d save her cat from a fire

Posted by Briana Viser

Jealousy is one of the worst feelings in the world. It's as if an icy glacier just dropped down into your stomach, freezing your body, brain, and instincts. A cold hand suffocates you until you're left speechless. It's the feeling we always fear when we put our hearts on the line, and it can be as encompassing and consuming as love itself. It's driven people to do crazy things, it's driven people to near madness, and as demonized as it is, it's also completely natural and ubiquitous. 

The phrase, "I'm not a jealous person," was always so peculiar to me. If you feel a moment of anger does one feel the need to justify themselves as not being an "angry person"? We have made jealousy out to be an absolute, and a stigma, when in reality, everyone feels jealousy at some point in their lives, just like every other emotion. 

There are levels of jealousy though. Jealousy over infidelity is obvious. Jealousy over a pet is a little less rational and realistic. In the story below, the protagonist is dealing with a jealous boyfriend over her cat.

"2 of the girls are very obviously pregnant... and the other two queens are about to pop": A tenant'

Posted by Laurent Shinar

Could you imagine this scenario? You come to view an apartment block, and as a cat lover, immediately notice the cats surrounding the building. When you ask your landlord to be about them she responds in a very positive tone that they are cared for by her and the tenants and you begin to think to yourself that you might have finally landed in cat heaven and will never have to apartment hunt again.

You'll host cat themed Halloweens, cat themed fourth of Julys and of course cat themed Christmases. Every Caturday there will be a block party in the block of flats and cats will roam free in the halls visiting whichever home the fancy and will get treated to lots of yummy treats. Now, forget all that and pretend that everything other than the apartment block and the landlady. Welcome to the beginning of today's feline flavored story.

Student and her couple-roommates plan to adopt a cat, only for them to adopt another behind her back

Posted by Ayala Sorotsky

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.

29 Frozen Feline Funnies to Beat the Heat While Staying Unbothered and Refrigerated

Posted by Blake Seidel

We know we said last week that it couldn't get any hotter, but we stand corrected. In fact, we're pretty sure Mother Nature heard us say it and said, "Challenge accepted". We're now at the point where we're taking two showers a day because every time we go outside, we start sweating. Last night, we opened and stood in front of the open refrigerator for about five minutes just to pretend we felt as cool as our leftovers. We'll worry about the energy bill later.

Just like our cats, we would happily jump in the fridge at a meowment's notice if we would fit. And since we're not one of those "ice bath" people (you know who you are), we'll have to settle for popsicles, ice water, and frozen feline funnies to beat the heat. We know how you get when you overheat - you're angry, uncomfortable, and overall unpleasant. Take a scroll through these funny frozen treats in meme form - they're hissterical and purrfectly cool!

Posted by Blake Seidel

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!

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.

24 Cute Cat Memes to Scroll Through in a Cozy Corner With a Feline Friend on Your Lap

Posted by Ayala Sorotsky

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.

21 Fabulous Felines With Unique and Rare Fur Patterns and Markings

Posted by Blake Seidel

Just like snowflakes, each cat is purrfectly unique. They all have slightly different coloring or patterns in their fur, different speckles in their eyes, and even different colors of toe beans! Even the standard-issue cats all have slightly different brown and black patterns. But there are some that are born with a slightly rarer twist, like being born with curly hair or being abnormally floofy. In our purrsonal opinion, there's no such thing as too much floof, but then again, we've never owned a superiorly floofy cat like a Norwegian forest cat.

Every cat in this post has something that separates them from the rest - it could be anything from a heart on their sides to an outline of a cat on a cat! It sounds weird, but when you see it, you'll get what we're talking about. But even if your cat wasn't born with any of these rare traits, don't worry, your cat is still beautiful. They're still purrfect. These ones are just… different!

'He's safe now': Bat-eared stray kitten survives burnt toe beans and "melted" whiskers after a heatw

Posted by Jesse Kessenheimer

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.

'I was not actually breaking any rules': Leashed cat’s hallway stroll sparks controversy and allergy

Posted by Sarah Brown

In a tail of hallway drama, this pawrent recently moved into a new apartment building with their skittish 9-year-old fluffball. The kitty is a purrfect law abiding catizen. She's well behaved, never scratches the furniture, and makes zero noise. However, this cat has taken to exploring the apartment hallway when it's not busy.

The pawrent always has her cat on a leash during her hallway explorations. But, during one of these walks, the cat was sitting peacefully when a neighbor noticed her, and expressed that they were very allergic. They then very strongly said that the cat shouldn't be in the hallway. The cat owner was caught off guard, responded politely and went back inside shortly after.

Now they're left wondering: is it inconsiderate to continue letting the cat explore the hallway, even while following the rules? They're not trying to stir up drama or trigger anyone's allergies, but also don't feel like they were doing anything wrong.

Here's the twist. The building is pet-friendly. So while furmageddon wasn't exactly unfolding, it's unclear where the line between respectful and unreasonable truly lies.

22 Furbulous Memes of Cats That Caught Caturday Night Fever and Can’t Stop Dancing

Posted by Sarah Brown

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.

'I never thought I'd be a cat person, but here we are': A 2 am meowgency led to a life changing deci

Posted by Sarah Brown

Once just a regular hooman with zero feline affiliations, a soon-to-be cat pawrent found life flipped upside-down by a soggy orange tabby and some seriously persuasive window-scratching at 2AM. Despite living on the second floor, in strolled the scruffiest little rain-soaked guest like he owned the lease… and hearts.

After inhaling some leftover chicken and water like it was a five-star meal, the uninvited guest made himself right at home on the couch. By morning, he was still there, clearly having decided this place was now his. One vet visit, one missed workday, and one overwhelming to-do list later, the scruffy stray was officially family.

Now dubbed Mango (because orange, obviously), the newly adopted floof has claimed every surface, knocked over every object, and curled up in every available lap. He offers emotional support via strategic laptop flops, follows his human like a fuzzy little shadow, and has transformed his once-petless roomie into a photo-spamming, budget-tracking, routine-loving cat devotee.

What started as a midnight meowmergency turned out to be the best pawsible decision ever.

24 Marvelous Memes of the Coolest Cats Around

Posted by Briana Viser

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.
