Cats bring an energy to the room that is both calming, endearing, and also a little unsettling. You never know when a feline is going to have a cuckoo cat moment and run around the room with wide eyes and a frazzled tail. Despite that uncertainty, cat people still find peace in knowing the cat is around.
For starters, it means that you can keep an eye on at silly nincompoop and secondly it means that there's a part of the cat that actually WANTS to be around us. Although it's not always clear, sometimes it seems like cats don't necessarily want their hoomans to interact with them. Sometimes it feels like we're their living can opener. But then in those gleaming special moments, when cats come sit on the chair arm next to us, nuzzling their tiny heads into our shoulder, everything in the world stands still. In this one purrfect moment, we are One with the cat. We relate to the cat. We are the cat.
Well not exactly, but we do love those little furballs to the moon and back, so why not relate to their nonsense every now and then? The only thing that can put a smile on any cat person's face faster than the extremely conditional love of their kitten are memes. Cat memes in particular don a special sense of belonging in the cat community and that's purrdy meow-nificent. Start every morning purrfectly - sign up to our daily newsletter!
