Anyone who has ever said that cats are not empathetic animals knows nothing about cats.
I am currently recovering from being sick over the last few days, like many people at this time of year. Also like many people, I do not like being sick, and I have gotten really good at being sorry for myself whenever I am sick. But, if there is one thing that always makes me feel better, that is the presence of my cat. She can always tell whenever I feel down, and will not leave my side until I am better. Yesterday she laid on my stomach for five hours and did not stop purring, because she knows it helps me. Even when I am just sad, without any particular reason, she is always there to comfort me.
Another way cats can improve your mood is by being the subject of some hissterical memes. Scroll down to enjoy some funny cat memes. When you are done with those, click here for a collection of purrfect cat portraits drawn by an awwesome artist.
