You know those times when you're scrolling through the camera reel on your phone, when you pull it a little too far down and end up seeing pictures of your cat as a kitten? Those times when that happens and you paws to look? When you're filled with nostalgia and love and memories of those days, when your cats were still itty bitty kittens, learning the ways of mischief, figuring out the best ways to cat? We love those moments. Those moments are why we don't empty our camera reels. 

Encountering pictures of our cats as teeny adorable kittens, those pictures from the past, they just make us happy. And we know that the same happens to every cat owners. And then, we encountered one of the pictures in this gallery as we were scrolling through our feeds, one of those old black and white pictures of a cat that has once lived, and somehow, we ended up filled with a feeling so similar, so wholesome and nostalgic, that we went out of our ways to find more pictures and more of that pure feeling. And now, we're sharing those pictures with you.

  • We don't know what it is about these pictures that we love so much, but there is something. They make us smile always, every single time we come across them. Something about the memory of these kitties, about seeing the joy that they brought people throughout history, the same way that they do for us now.

  • We look at our camera reel sometimes and think that maybe it's crazy that we have so, so many cat pictures in there, but maybe it's not. Because the people who took these pictures… if they had phones back then, their camera reels would look exactly the same as ours.
