Kittens make hoomans feel happy.

With a natural predisposition for cuteness and a hankering for occasional mischief, kittens are the purrfect critters to keep the human mind occupied. When we're around cats, we're never bored because there's always something silly, annoying, or downright fascinating to witness whenever you're in the purresence of a felonious feline.

Cats have ears that only hear the sound of crinkling treat bags (and not the sounds of cat owners screaming "Nooo!" when they're scratching up the bed post). They have flickering tails that knock the leaves off of your favorite house plants, and they have adorable toe beans that scatter cat litter all over the house. Kittens bite your ankles when you are sleeping peacefully in REM hours, and they only cry for kibbles when you're busy, resting, or doing something else entirely. Cats are infuriating beings, but they win everyone over with a certain je-ne-sais-quoi.

According to cat experts, it's the internally driven kitten magic.

"Meowgic," if you will.

Beyond a cat's natural grace, presence, cuteness, and prowess, cats also have an innate ability to make us smile. Their weirdness and quirks are only fuel to the fire of human love towards felines, and the innocence and instinct of a kitten amplify this love. They're kooky, they're crazy, and they may climb all over the furniture at all hours of the night, but kittens are so cute they're forgiven of all transgressions. So if you've ever been a victim to a bad day at work, bad test scores, getting fired, or even just feeling a bit moody, cats can save the day. Kittens, especially, with their tiny mews, big eyes, and stiff little tails, have the best chance of turning your day around for the better.

Meorific, this kitten is going to get away with it, too! Frankly, he looks innocent to me.
