22 Memes of Cats Who Deserve an Oscar for Their Purrfectly Dramatic Performances

If there's one thing cats have truly mastered, it's the art of being overly dramatic. From the way they fling themselves to the floor like they're auditioning for a soap opera, to those wide eyes when you dare to move their food bowl two inches. Everything is a catastrophe of epic proportions.

You closed the door? Cue the mournful meows and desperate pawing like they've been locked out of paradise. An empty food dish (that was full five minutes ago)? Obviously, they're starving and you've neglected them for years. They'll stare at the bowl, then at you, then back at the bowl, like they can't believe the betrayal. You might even get an Oscar-worthy flop to the floor, as if hunger has claimed them right then and there.

Cats are tiny, furry drama queens, turning every moment into a five-act play. But their dramatics are half the fun of having them around!

Can’t even close the door without a cat acting like you’ve committed the ultimate betrayal and left them locked out forever. The drama is real with these little fluffballs!

Cats will throw a full-on hissy fit, complete with drama and attitude, and then act like absolutely nothing happened. Gotta love their ability to reset the mood in a split second!

Be careful when a cat chooses to cuddle. One wrong move, cough, or sniffle and they’ll bolt like you’ve committed a crime. No second chances with these dramatic little floofs!
