'An illegally smol prisoner!' 20 Awwdorably Tiny Kittens That Can Fit In the Palm of Your Hand

You know what the best thing about the itty bitty kitty committee is? It's that we know… we know that these teeny weeny kittens gather to discuss how to take over the world. We know that they are criminals in the making. We know what having an adult cat in our home means, the chaos that they bring. We know. And we love them anyway. We cannot resist their powers of purrsuasion. And we don't want to.

Yes, these criminal cats make us write this listicle, showcasing the smallest kittens - i.e. the biggest criminals - every single week, but we enjoy it. And so yes, we continue to warn you about the risks of this listicle. We keep telling you that you will face those powers of purrsuasion yourself just by scrolling through these pictures, that you might, as a consequence, find yourself walking to a shelter with the intention of adopting a tiny criminal without ever making the conscious decision to do so. We warn you, but we know that just like us, you are going to cave, and you are going to be happy about it.

We have to be honest - we did not know that we needed this measurement system, but we totally do. From now on, we would like every person who adopts a kitten to measure it using bananas. And post pictures of it. Or better yet, send them directly to us.

Listen, committing crimes takes up a lot of energy whether you understand it or not. And learning how to commit crimes - which is what all kittens do at such a young age - is even more tiring. Clearly, this kitty worked hard that day and really needed a break, and really, we respect the hard work that it's putting into its craft.
