Smiling is infectious. When one person smiles, it's almost innate and automatic that it would make you smile back. There's so much in a smile that's chock full of pawsitivity. Everyone needs a dash of positivity in their life. For some people that may look like taking long vacations, trips abroad, time spent with friends and family, or it could look like laughing along with feline funnies on your phone. You don't have to be a cat owner to get why these cuddle bugs have touched the hearts and minds of the entire internet worldwide. Here at I Can Has Cheezburger, we believe not only in the power of the scroll, but the power of the cat scroll. There's no higher power to lift us up than an adorable and hilarious cat meme. 

For people who are cat owners, we all know the doting and daunting morning stare from your cat. Some nudge you with their nose, while others meow in your ear. But regardless of what they do, we can't ignore their adorable attempts at our attention. And once we're up, there's no better way to start your morning than with a hot cup of coffee, a slow stretch, and a scroll through the internet's most comforting corner of freshly brewed cat memes. So before you leave for the grueling Monday morning commute, it's important to have a sense of pleasure and pawsitivity with these sunny and smiling cat memes to combat the noise, stimulation, and problems of the world.

  • Sunny, smiling kitties are all you need sometimes. When things feel too heavy, too dark, and too much to handle, there are always cats to cheer us up. To make us feel like everything is worth it. There's something about acknowledging how cute cats are that lightens the mood for everything. How can we feel down and worried about issues in the world or personal ones when a cat is simply looking at us with big, innocent cat eyes? There's just something immensely heartwrenching about it that makes one think, “yeah, life isn't all so bad, is it?”
