Cats

This cat finds itself in a precarious situation and has to do a high-wire crossing through the laundry room. While kitty starts out strong, we’re not calling Cirque du Soleil anytime soon.

Despite the fact that cats can occasionally be trained like dogs, most of the time they’re way too stubborn and self-centered to do the bidding of us humans. There’s a reason you don’t walk cats.

While dogs are pretty good at learning tricks, we’re impressed that any cat will take this much direction. Richie, the kitten seems to thrive on the whole training thing. The secret? Sausage treats.

YouTuber sweetpea377’s daily routine: take a shower, brush teeth, wait for her a**hole of a cat to climb on her head. Best comment on the video: “You’re lucky you don’t own an elephant.”

Here ye, greedy NBA players: don’t think for a minute you couldn’t get replaced by this number one feline draft pick. Looks like all the moves are solid, plus, bonus: payment in Friskies.

Usually our pets are freaked out by the sound of household appliances, but this cat is more than ready to beat the crap out of the invisible foe hiding inside this hair dryer.

Conan O’Brien guides us through the sea of deceiving videos the internet holds and reveals to us the real world’s longest cat, as well as the world’s longest lesbian, though we don’t know why.

Take a break and check out these 40 seconds of funny: watch what happens when a bunch of guys who are waiting for beer get something else instead – a cuddly tuxedo cat. (Thanks Jacob!)

This poor cat seems to be using the only English word it knows in an attempt to tell its owner to get his friend’s daughter away. And yes, stop right there, the Internet knows what you’re thinking.

There is a day when every meme must come to an end. Sadly, that day has arrived for poor Nyan Cat. There’s no pot of gold (or 8 more lives) at the end of this Pop-Tart cat’s rainbow – just a toaster.

We’re usually too busy being distracted by Maru’s tomfoolery to appreciate his silky grey fur and big green eyes. That all changes with this loving, up-close look at the Internet’s favorite feline.

How does this happen? We know lots of cats who can bend, stretch and contort into positions people wish to master in yoga, but this pretzel cat takes the cake. Seriously, how does this happen?

Modder Cr4zyb4st4rd has made a mutator for Unreal Tournament 3 that turns the Redeemer – the most powerful weapon in the series – into a meme launcher. Might as well call it the Humiliator.

The lightsaber-wielding kittens return, this time for an epic space battle complete with an X-Wing Fighter and Darth Kitty in his TIE Fighter. Reminds us of Laser Cats, but with a much bigger budget.

And we thought Maru only liked boxes. Apparently we were wrong. In fact, the world’s most popular cat doesn’t seems to love paper bags just as much – and the more humiliating the situation, the better.

It’s already well established that cats love to chase laser pointers. Heck, they’d probably jump off a building to follow a little red dot (and still land on all fours). But this? We never expected this.

We thought that cats and exercise equipment were mortal enemies. Who knew that some felines actually like a jog on the treadmill? Neither cat bothered picking up the dumbbells though.

Is it on? Dude, is the camera on? Are you recording? Make sure you get it this time okay? You want to learn how to pull off a tic tac right? Don’t zoom in so much! Okay step back, here I go.

We’re assuming that this cat is so sick and tired of being mauled by this puppy that he’s just given up on life. Or maybe he secretly enjoys it and just doesn’t want us to know.

Miku the cat and his owner don’t need a useless machine to pass the time. All they need is a lid and their paw/finger. Their duel takes an ironic twist  when Miku decides to troll his owner.

The owners of Bert, this 21 pound orange tabby astutely point out the reason why they’re best off not getting a second cat. Or at least not an inflatable one made from Mylar.

PRGuitarman, father of Nyan Cat unleashes his latest attempt to hypnotize the web with cats. This time, there are over 150 cats, and you gotta catch ’em all. Get the.gif here. Slow version here.

Depending on how you look at the world, this is either the greatest thing ever on the Internet (in the last hour), or the end of civilization as we know it. We wish there was a Darth Maul kitten though.

Cats have a tendency to land on their feet no matter how high the jump, but a lift made especially for Mr. Whiskers is a more graceful way for kitty to get downstairs. Cheap version here.

We still enjoy the antics of beloved YouTube cat Maru, even though he has sold himself out now and is about to release a book. On the other hand we’re jumping on the list for preorder, because why not?

We’re guilty of contributing to the widespread epidemic of cat videos on the Web. But until now, we didn’t know the truth behind the myriad cat clips clogging the Interpipes with hairballs.

We all know by now that Maru isn’t exactly the most dignified cat. But that doesn’t stop him from charming the pants off of us with his gymnastic abilities behind the door in this clip.

(NSFW: language) Since we think cats can be regal, fastidious and intelligent creatures, the lyrics in this anthem to stupid cats aren’t exactly accurate; on the other hand, they are rather hilarious.

We’re not quite sure what we’re seeing here, but this kitty gets so spooked that he makes a hasty (and unconventional) break for it. VFX? Hidden wires? Weird cat? You decide. Get the .gif here.

Where it’s at, they’ve got two turntables and a microphone – and three orange tabby kittens who apparently have latent dj talent. We’re canine lovers but let’s face it – dogs couldn’t do this.
