We love everything about cats, let's start with that. We love cats' boopable noses, and we love cats' squishy paws, and we love cat's fluffy bellies that we love to touch even though our cats always bites us when we do. We love it. We love them. And we love it all the more when those things are… extra. So, when we came across some pictures of cats with extra large cheeks and saw that they were going viral on the internet, we have to say that we were not surprised at all. 

And so that is what we are talkin' about today. Cats with extra large, squishy cheeks that are completely irresistible. Just imagine the chin scratchies, imagine how soft and amazing it would be. Also, don't worry, the cats are okay. This is something normal that happens to unneutered male cats. They're not in danger, they are just extremely cute.

    Caroleeena @Caroleeenalala ... Unneutered male cats can develop big cheeks as a result of all that testosterone. It's a secondary sex characteristic that signals they are big tough guys. Earl here is 13 & has had a tough life. He's now neutered & the Wake Co SPCA is trying to find him an only cat foster/home. 7:19 AM. Aug 23, 2024 · 319K Views 181 1.1K 14K 604 ↑

    We don't think that this beautiful lion is going to be looking for a home for very long. With cheeks as cute as this, and with a post this viral, there are going to be people fighting to get a chance to adopt this little guy, and we could not be happier about it. We cannot wait to get updates about him.

    And we love that the first thing that people on the internet do when they see a picture like that go viral is add more pictures of their own. We did not think we would be blessed with so many pictures of chubby cheeked cats today, but we are thankful that we were.

    Claudia A. @ClaudiaA1070387 Finn looked like that when we picked him up from the street. After neutering his jowls reduced a good amount.

    Neil H. Schott @NeilSchott0315 What a handsome gentleman. I hope he finds a home. This is "our" feral we have named The Lion King. He comes just about every day for breakfast and dinner and to rest on the blanket we put out for him.

    libre-et-gratuit @americanadianTO I found this lovely outside guy a home with another cat I'd fostered. I didn't know that about the cheeks.
