The more cats we discover, the happier we are as human beings. And there really are a whole lot of cats to discover. Everyone knows the classics - the house cats, the lions, the tiger, and all the rest of the big cats. But not everyone knows about small wild cats and just how many species of small wild cats there are.

Like… did you know about the perpetually grumpy Pallas' cat that sits on its own tail to warm up its paws? And what about the fluffy and giant Maine Coon cats who way bigger than whatever it is you're imagining right now? And what about the pawdorable sand cats whose ears are way to big for their heads? And the itty bitty Black Footed kitty who is one of the smallest but most lethal cats in the world? There is an endless number of ameowzing small wild cats to discover, and today, twitter discovered a new one - the Norwegian forest cat, and twitter's reactions… were hissterical.

We think we have a problem. No, for real, listen. Every time we see a new cat that we like, we immediately want to find one to adopt. It doesn't matter that we already have a bunch of cats and that we really can't afford any more of them, we see this, and that's it… we want one.

The face, the ears, the size, the poise… this cat is purrfect. Even for a Norwegian forest cat, this cat is purrfect. We have seen quite a few at this point, but this one is something else. It is fluffy on a level that we have never seen, and the ears… oh, the folded ears… we're obsessed.
