There's nothing more practical than cat memes.

We all need a bit of play in life, and we all need something practical. The balance between work and play, free time and production, and happy and sad can take many routes, forms, and paths. It's not always a straight line, and life will bring us down roads that seem unfamiliar far too often. The important thing is to be gentle with yourself, to let yourself do or feel whatever it needs. Play could look like literal play – maybe you're a video game person, or you like sports, or maybe "playtime" for you is enjoying a good book under the sun, or taking a warm bath and doing your ritualistic nightly routine, or maybe it's scrolling these precious cat memes because there's no better down time than cat time.

We live in a world where being productive and practical are more popular than having "fun." In past generations, people liked to party, go out, see friends, or be involved in hedonistic rights as part of their outside of work time. Nowadays, being healthy means being happy. Going to bed at a decent hour, always working on yourself, stretching, exercising, eating healthy, and having your skincare routine down before 8 pm are the main flaunts of happiness today. We all need to give ourselves what we need, and even if it's not popular to doom scroll or be obsessed with your cat, you can do it anyway. Don't pay attention to social media trends or what your ASMR vlogger tells you about what a healthy lifestyle means. It's all about what you want, and you clearly want cat memes. These cats are playful, precious, practical, and just waiting to be laughed at. Laughter is the best medicine, so don't hold back and enjoy these kitty cats.

It's true that they really do run us dry. As a cat pawrent I can attest to this claim. I always feel like I have no money, and then I see my cat just dripping in the best canned tuna and cat toys. I buy him human brands of fish because he's a picky eater. He's quite fat though so he doesn't need more excuses to eat.
