'Introverted but willing to talk to cats': 26 Memes to Relate to When You're Done With Hoomans

Cat people are known for being introverted. And cats? They're impossible to pin down and define, they're like water slithering through your fingers, and somehow that reminds us of them being introverted.

The internet is a comforting place for all, but for introverts, there's nothing like it. There's no need to talk to people face to face, to open your mouth and speak, or to make unwanted eye contact with anyone. People may see your introverted behavior as inimical, but cats? Cats embrace this aversion to society and socializing. Cats and the internet really do go hand in hand, for so many reasons. When you spend time with your cat, it doesn't feel like the same social exhaustion that you feel with people. The cat accepts you, and you can sit in absolute silence without harm. How to define introvert? It's typically thought of being shy, but it's more than that. It's closer to being antisocial than anything. Cats, in their mere existence, exude this type of vibe. You really never know when it's okay to pet them, speak to them, or acknowledge them.

I consider myself highly introverted. I can go all day without speaking to a single person, and I can enjoy it! A purrfect Friday night is relaxing at home alone, playing with my cat, making some pasta dinner and watching something on TV with him next to me. I don't need people, I don't need talking, and I don't need the social expense that comes with it. I really just want comfort, and cats provide just that. I often get sick of being around people, but my cat is always there for me.

These memes purrfectly capture that specific emotional territory where human interaction starts feeling draining, but animal companionship still feels comforting. We do live in an increasingly isolated society, but before we go on complaining about it and how people don't go out anymore, let's consider what really matters. Our feelings matter, our ability to maintain a normal lifestyle, and the only thing that matters more than that is our cat. Enjoy these cat memes for introverts everywhere.
