31 Cat Memes for Pet Owners Whose Alarm Clocks Meow and Demand Breakfast at 6 am

If you've ever lived with a cat, you know they do not believe in sleeping in. Ever. Especially when it's breakfast time. Every morning like clockwork, they're pacing, yelling, and making it seem like you've starved them for days (even though they'd never let you get close even remotely skipping a meal). I used to have a cat that would actually swat me in the face if I dared sleep past 8 am. No hesitation. She'd just slap me awake, lead me to the kitchen like I was late for work, and then immediately lose interest the second I filled her bowl. No thank you, no purring, just "you may go now."

Now that the weather's getting nicer and the sun is seemingly rising earlier and earlier, our feline overlords are using it as ammo. To them, a sliver of light through the window at 5:45 AM means it's time to scream for breakfast. If you're nodding along in sleep-deprived agreement, keep scrolling for 31 cat memes that'll hopefully take the edge off.
