It has been a week full of hard work and suffering so as we settle into the weekend we want to make sure you have something to help you emotionally cool off from the week of work. So kick back, relax and let these lovely memes do their thing.

We find ourselves here this Caturday once more to give thanks to the felines of the world that we so deeply love. We gather to gaze upon their silky soft fur and the sweet memories we have of getting to pet it for mere seconds at a time. We gather to glorify the exploits of our clawminal cats who have committed crimes against hoomanity that would have gotten any other animal or hooman sent to the big house immediately. But most of all we gather to share, bask in, and delight in our love for fluffy felines.

So we put together a collection of cute cats designed to cool you down with soothing and silly feline antics. The kind that makes you think back to Saturday morning cartoons, the innocence of that time and the simple love we had for them. The kind of love that we bestow upon our cats today, perhaps pointing to them being the only thing we keep from our childhood. And with that we leave you to indulge in these wholesome cat memes, with everything from the cat who is getting cooked on the balcony like a honey baked ham, to the feline beggar who has a home but prefers the taste of other people's treats anyway.
