26 of the Cattiest Cat Pawsts to Cat-Up All Cat Parents' Weekend

There are things in life that are just very cat.

Your cat is one of them, obviously. But your cat might be different from another person's cat, and yet - they'll both always be very cat. That's because of the great duality of cats. It's a concept that explains what's Very Cat™, to differentiate it from anything that's not cat (and therefore irrelevant, plain, and boring). It works on the duality that cats present - one cat trait is very much a cat thing, but also its exact opposite.

Let us demonstrate: Your cat might open the zoomies every night in a random hour, parkouring over your ceiling and screaming at your furniture. That's a very cat thing for your cat to do. And then you have the lazy morning-turned-noon of not wanting to get out of bed (or any other comfy place your cat claimed), sleeping like a wooden log. This is also a very cat thing, for sure. Or think of your cat's immaculate sense of cleanliness - petting an area on the fur they've just licked is strictly forbidden. And then think of the trail of litterbox sand they leave behind when they take off out of it once they finish their business.

The great duality of cats stands firm as a concept in reality. Philosophers should be talking about it. Or meowing about it.

“Me? A cat? You mean to tell me that if I have some fluffy fur, four legs, a fabulous tail, the smartest brain in this house, a healthy appetite for yummy treats, the cutest face you've ever seen, and you want to give me all the love, all day long, every day - it makes me a cat? Well, by all means then, call me a cat. If that just replaces my true title of ‘Ruler of all rooms, emperor of cardboard boxes, the absolute king of your schedule, tarnisher of glasses left on the counter unattended, master assassin of hairties, the first of his name’, then you can use the shortened version of ‘cat’. That's fine. I allow it because I love you. And also because you will give me double the amount of treats from day forward.”

Let's see, so for a whole vacation, you need to pack only your laptop, your chargers, a couple of shirts, maybe an extra pair of pants if you feel fancy, and literally all of your cats, preferably also the ones hanging around your house. Got it. Makes a lot of sense.
