Cats

Another work week’s over. While some people just have to get down on Friday, we know many of simply want to lie down and pass out, just like Maru here after a day spent playing.

After watching this ten second clip of this sleepy feline, we can’t help but wonder if anyone else besides us out there is envious of how easy this furry guy makes it seem to fall asleep?

Up until this moment, we thought our cat was the only one who acted like a dog. The feline here takes it to the next level – and transitions back in a smooth, stealthy kind of way. (Thanks Chris!)

We all know how much Maru loves his boxes, but after several clown-like failures, this time he succeeds in cramming his rotund body in a cardboard box that’s clearly too small for him.

At the beginning we thought this video that Debbie makes for her eHarmony profile was real; now that we’re at the end, we’re thinking less eHarmony and more eImprov instead. (Thanks Hannah!)

Say, isn’t that ball supposed to be for a hamster? Clearly, this kitten doesn’t know any better. It’s cute, but that Stealers Wheel song always makes us think of Reservoir Dogs, not Reservoir Cats.

It is Caturday after all, so what better way to start the day than to watch a bunch of Maine Coon kittens do what kittens do, and synchronize their gazes on a feather moving overhead.

There’s a reason why this video already has almost 16 million views less than a week after it was posted. And that reason is: Reddit. No: Love. A mother’s warm hug can vanquish any nightmare.

We’re always forgetting birthdays around here, so the fact that yesterday was Maru the cat’s 4th birthday and we’re just posting this today is just par for the course. Happy 4th and a day, Maru!

Oh Mylo. The way your owner has put this goofy video together of your finest cat moments just makes us all wish we could come back as a housecat in our next life. (Thanks Adam!)

Dark Roasted Blend put together this photo compilation of cats that will think nothing of killing you if you so much as look at them sideways. That’s what we get for all that evil animal testing.

What do you get when you take one cat, one piece of ham, and a camera capable of capturing motion at 2500 frames-per-second? Awesome images of a kitty who seems to defy the very laws of physics.

Turn your speakers up or it won’t be fun: a kitten comes across the unknown, the immovable, the DREADED TENNIS BALL. Nah, it’s probably like this whenever it encounters something new.

We’ve all heard about the critical role that a dog played in the takedown of Osama Bin Laden. Turns out cats have been involved in military operations for a while as well.

In Soviet Russia, they use kittens instead of crash test dummies in what can only be called extreme animal testing. PeTA, we’ve been assured that no kittens were harmed in the making of this video.

She’s not the one that owns 23 cats, or the one that’s had enough plastic surgery to resemble a feline – this is BAMF conservationist Marlice Van Der Merwe fitting into a coalition of cheetahs.

This clip has been floating around the tubes for over 10 years, yet we’ve never seen it before so figured some of you guys hadn’t either. Apparently kitty isn’t the only one who’s using his cat door.

We’re not really sure what strange reflex kicked in for this kitty in the middle of his bath, but somewhere along the way, kitty decides to get into a fight – with himself. We’ll call this one a draw.

We assume this cat is watching Animal Planet, or maybe he just likes CNN. We really can’t tell since the show is in Russian. Either way, kitty needs to get out of the house more and get some exercise.

Nature never really works quite the way you’d expect. Take, for instance, this tenacious bird that incessantly taunts a cat. Of course, things have a way of working out…

We can’t imagine how frustrated and perplexed this kitty is as he attempts to figure out how to get the fish right below his feet. Too bad there’s a layer of ice between him and his daily catch.

Actually, we’re not quite sure what sort of fighting moves this cat is pulling off, but they’re definitely unusual. Maybe he just wanted to freak out the other cat out instead of actually taking him on.

Hobbes the cat loves small boxes and has no idea how silly he looks trying to cram himself into one. It actually looks like he’s taken a lesson from his larger, similar-minded Asian cat cousin Maru.

When we first heard about this clip, we asked ourselves if the internet truly needed another cat video. We wondered how we could be entertained in just 4 seconds. Then we watched this.

It’s been a long while since a GEICO commercial actually made us laugh, so we’re happy to see that they managed to finally make one that made us spit out our beverages again.

We’ve been assured by the owner of this cat that he not only is alive and well, he’s not been drugged… the cat is just really, really, really sleepy. We’re not sure we believe him.

Two posts in a week about cats with thumbs must be a new record. This one is even better than the first. If we lived in England, we’d totally buy Cravendale milk just because of this commercial.

Our favorite Japanese cat-in-a-box returns – this time he’s trying on some new hairstyles from inside his cardboard abode. We think he looks best as a redhead, but the bob is pretty funny too.

We don’t know about you guys, but our cats would never tolerate this sort of humiliation. Maybe these four kitties been drugged, or maybe they actually like to wear cups on their heads.

Like chocolate and peanut butter, cats and laser pointers are unlikely mates that belong together. Here’s proof you could make a cat do just about anything for a chance to chase that darned dot.
