We have all been subjected to YouTube videos, pictures posted by a “friend” on Facebook or those forwarded chain emails. And let’s be honest, they are typically just plain ridiculous … However, they make us laugh, smile, or roll our eyes, and the two minutes it took to view it probably made your day in some way. In my experience, many of these internet sensations seem to involve cats. For whatever reason, cats bring some kind of joy to the human heart (even for the avid dog lovers out there – they’re lying if they say some of these pictures don’t make them smile). Why is this? Well it’s most likely because they are cute, and furry, but they also do some pretty darn funny stuff sometimes. People also force them to do a lot of silly things. Anything for a good laugh, right? So today we thought we’d share some of our most adorable (and not so adorable) images of cats.
Can someone please explain to me why we are always putting kittens in a basket?

Cats are just people … in a furry costume. (PS, read that caption above again. Seriously, do it.)

Why so angry?
Tweety really had nothing to fear with Sylvester. See? Cats and birds can be friends.

I don’t know what these cats could have done to deserve this…
