24 Times We Accidentally Mistook Our Cats For Tiny Goblins And Scared The Heck Out Of Us

We love our cats, we really do, but to this day we're still not entirely sure if they're actually cats, tiny aliens in cat costumes, or if they're actually little goblins that pretend to love us sometimes. Especially at night, sometimes we catch them in the middle of something devious, with glowing eyes, and the question arises once again, "What have I gotten myself into?".

Just kidding! We love our little goblins, but boy do they scare us sometimes in the middle of the night. We wouldn't be surprised if, one day, those glowing eyes started shooting laser beams like Superman, because with cats you always have to expect the unexpected. So this post is dedicated to all the cat owners that caught their little goblins doing something and lived to tell the tale. Don't feed them after midnight, and don't get them wet!

After seeing this picture, you have to believe that cats could be goblins. That face is terrifying (yet somehow still cute??? We're very confused). The glowing eyes, strange head shape, and mysterious aura….could be a cat. Who can tell?

Imagine waking up, walking into the room, and seeing this. We would probably pee our pants. That's so many cats. So many goblins! Imagine all the mischief that must happen when the lights go off. So many zoomies!
