Cats may have a reputation for being aloof and lazy, but these smarty-paws felines are here to prove you wrong!

Whether they're sitting on a stack of books pretending to read or sitting on a laptop pretending to work, these cats know how to make us believe they're the next big thing in academia.

These cats have a way of looking intelligent, and a knack for making you think they are smarter than they actually are! They love to sit on books, knock over pens, and type random letters on keyboards, making us believe that they are reading, writing, or working.
