A cat edited into famous hisstorical moments somehow ends up center stage in every era

Cats have main character energy. With, or without, Photoshop.

There was a huge phase of the internet where everyone was obsessed with photoshopping themselves into hilarious pictures, historical landmarks, or adding themselves into pictures to make the purrfect photobomb. We should know, because we did it. And it wasn't just true for hoomans, pawrents photoshopping their cats into pictures for the Olympics or just for fun became an instantly shareable pic that would circulate the internet back in the early days of social media.

Now? It's a bit tired. A little "been there, done that". Why? Because it became so easy to do. In 2012, everyone and their grandmother knew how to Photoshop themselves, and you probably didn't even need Photoshop to do it. Now, we have AI, which can do everything Photoshop can do without having to know all the technical processes to achieve the end result.

And yet, when we came across this thread of a pawrent Photoshopping their cat into famous hisstorical meowments, we noticed something different. Sure, the cat was edited into the tearing down of the Berlin Wall, supervising the moon landing, etc, but what we loved about these photos was that the cat, even if it wasn't in the center of the image, was that the kitty was center stage in every era. We couldn't not look at them, and not because the editing was bad (well, it was in some of them), but because the pictures were infinitely better with them inside.

It just proves what we've been saying for years: cats give off "main character energy" as naturally as breathing. It also proves another thing we've been saying for furrever: more historical pictures should include cats. It might make history more fun to learn.

Honorable mentions - Gizmo

via SpaceCats9000
We decided to include some of our other favorite photoshopped cats into this listicle because why not? They're hissterical and full of that feline flavor you know and love from I Can Has Cheezburger. You know you're likely to giggle at them, so just scroll down and don't overthink it. If you don't laugh at Gizmo enjoying the breeze on his fluffy face from the deck of the Titanic, well, you need to lighten up.
