A Curiosity of the Cutest Cat Pics to Fuzzily Fix Your Midweek Feline Funk

Some people add an extra shot of espresso to their coffee to turn their day around, but we need a cornucopia of cute kitties and five minutes of scrolling to make any day a pawsitive one.

Everyone focuses on how bad Mondays are, but we always furget how ruff Wednesdays can be. You feel like you've gotten so far in the week, and yet, the weekend is still nowhere in sight. Somehow, you have to make it through, and we all have our little hacks for fixing the midweek funk. Some people buy themselves a sweet treat, others allow themselves an extra cup of coffee (or three), but we don't need any of that. We just need cute cats and all the wholesome serotonin they purrvide us.

When you look at pictures of something you love, your brain is flooded with a rush of happiness and nostalgia thanks to how your brain is wired. Your stress levels even decrease. You will start to recall meaningful memories around that thing and start to feel calmer. This is how we get through the worst day of the week - by tricking our brain into feeling happy by showing it the most awwdorable kitties on the internet.

If you made it this far, you're probably as much of a fan of felines as we are, so you're in the right place. No matter if you woke up on the wrong side of the cat bed or your day was already in the litter box, there's nothing some cute cats and kittens can't fix. It's scientifically proven!

Doesn't looking at this awwdorable kitten just remind you of how cute your cats were when they were kittens? They were so smol, we could hold them in one hand. They would fall asleep on our chests and we would barely feel their weight, that's how tiny they were. And when we taught them how to jump from the couch into our arms? We have to stop, we're getting teary-eyed already!

You know that baby animals are cute for a reason, right? It's evolutionary. They're literally designed to make us want to take care of them, with those big, round eyes, and those cute, chubby features. Be they kittens, puppies, or hooman babies, it doesn't matter, we can't help but go into “mommy mode” whenever we see one in need.
