Cats

Most pets make noises to get their master’s attention, but this needy yet smart cat has a simple approach that has a 100% success rate: make it so its human can’t pay attention to anything else.

Nylah the cat is more civilized than the average feline, preferring to eat her food not with her face stuffed in a bowl, but with proper utensils and a plate. She hasn’t learned how to use a knife – yet.

It’s been a while since we had a visit from the Internet’s most favoritest kitty, Maru, but here he is returning to what made him famous – cramming his fat ass into boxes that he doesn’t belong in.

We know cats are fastidious creatures, but this fluffy girl has an interesting technique for clearing the clutter off of desks. Since all our paper is piling up, perhaps a visit to the TA office is in order.

We already know that dogs paved the way for manned space flight, but why not cats instead? Show your support for the feline space program with this limited-edition tee by Austin Martin.

We’re not sure if this cat is speaking with its alien mothership or if its just dropped some really good catnip. Either way, kitty has something important (and downright weird) to communicate.

National Geographic captured this motion-sickness-inducing cat’s eye perspective, as Molly the house cat stalks and catches an alley rat, and has herself a delicious snack. Not safe for lunchtime.

Ceiling Cat is one of the all-time classic memes, which is perhaps the reason this kitty was inspired to hang out above the acoustic tile ceiling of this classroom and liven up a PowerPoint presentation.

No, we’re not talking about this cat’s ability to see. Rather, what you’re about to observe is this feline’s ability to annoy when it’s clearly bored and is trying to get its owner’s attention.

While you could deposit your money in one of those Japanese cat toy banks, we much prefer the action of the real-live kitty depository. Though the only interest you’ll earn is paid in Cat Chow.

Looks like the cat that had nothing positive to say has a friend. While it’s possible kitty could be communicating with the mothership, we’re guessing it’s just a hairball getting ready to come up.

We’re not sure what this cat is up to, but it looks like he’s got work to do so we won’t bother him. That said, if you happen to see him around, tell him we have some vacuuming we need done.

One of these kittens is absolutely obsessed with the alluring glow of the green laser pointe, while the other clearly seems to prefer its sibling over some stupid inanimate object.

No, cats aren’t supposed to wear leashes! People, on the other hand, need structure and direction. Here, Kodi the kitten demonstrates all the proper moves to keep his human in line.

This cat seems far more interested in playing the guitar than in the 6.3 magnitude quake which struck in the middle of his performance. In fact, he seems downright offended by the interruption.

From what we’ve been told, the cats that faced off in this battle are okay, but the tense stand-off had us on the edge of our seats – and the explosive conclusion made us jump from them.

While he’s not quite as agile as the Cat Quadcoptor, at least George the Hovercat is alive – and encouraging you to head to the ASPCA to adopt your own pet – flying or otherwise.

While this cat can’t climb walls without some assistance, we’re equally puzzled and impressed by its ability to walk vertically between the fridge and the wall like it’s nothing special.

We’re not sure why this cat is so fascinated with the blades of this ceiling fan, but we’re not really sure why cats do anything they do. Ultimately, the fan has the last laugh this time.

This raccoon (toy) is about to get its ass handed to it, courtesy of a stealthy cat lurking in the shadows below its comfy plaid perch. The best 11 seconds you’ll spend today.

We can’t believe it, but the internet’s favorite cat just turned 4 years old. As a treat, his owner put together another tribute video, compiled from the big furball’s finest moments of the past year.

We may never know whether he’s bummed about a lack of catnip or having to do his business in a small box, but we can be sure that this little guy’s got plenty of cat scratch fever to go around.

This feline is outnumbered, but it’s not outgunned. Or outsabered. As Yoda has proven in his hilarious Star Wars prequel fights, size doesn’t matter if you’re a Jedi.

These cats need to get upstairs, but instead of looking for a staircase, they take the easy way out (or up) courtesy of this low-budget lift contrived by their owner – who couldn’t afford one of these.

We’re already familiar with one screaming frog, but this little green guy has every right to let out a wail as a kitty cat approaches and gives him a pat. The frog was not harmed, but our eardrums were.

These two furry animals are not enemies – the hamster doesn’t freak out and bail when the cat arrives. But they’re not close friends either, as shown by the hamster’s unwillingness to share.

What would happen if Star Trek were written by and for cats? Perhaps it would look something like this video clip starring Commander Titan and Security Officer Atlas. Beam me up some 9Lives!

If you’ve got a cat in the house, you might actually be familiar with the wake-up technique shown off here by Boo the cat. If not, be glad you aren’t awakened this way every day.

A clouded leopard cub being tickled while it’s sleeping. Guaranteed to melt your heart. You can see this little fella and his other pals at the Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium in Tacoma, Washington.

Poor Arthur had an injury to his ears, and had to wear one of those stupid plastic cones. Needless to say, he didn’t like it one bit – and even once he admitted his fate, he never quite got the hang of it.
