Gotta get those zzz's.

When you're in a sleepy, staid torpor of listless lulled energy, drifting between the pendulum swing of wakefulness and slumber, there's nothing better that will send you into a dreamy sleep than a simple cat scroll of wholesome and hilarious memes before bed. We can all be grateful for certain aspects of society and culture today, because one of the most valuable things to worship right now is sleeping. Think of our grandparent's generation, waking up at 5 in the morning to do manual labor as a child, and the fact that everyone thought that was normal and even prideful. These days, we can all take a step back from strenuous and unnecessary work for a little bit more leisure time.

More leisure time = more cat memes. More cat memes = more happiness. More happiness = better quality of life. So when you think about scrolling, there should never be associations of guilt or facile enjoyment, there can be feelings of real pleasure. So enjoy these sleeping kitties while you lull yourself to slumber.

Everyone likes to sleep in, but not everyone is afforded that kind of luxury. And okay, we admit, it's not nearly as bad as the life of a dog mom or dad, facing the bitter and brisk cold of the outside morning air as you trek downstairs so your dog can go to the bathroom. But still! Cat parents have their complaints too! The heavy onus of pet parenting is simply...heavy, no matter what the pet. You're in a deep sleep, off floating in dreamland to visions of soft serve ice cream and a jobless existence, when BAM! Consciousness hits you like a bus, but it's actually just your cat skidding across the floor and hitting the bed you're sleeping on. There's only one way to combat the aches and pains of a mischievous cat keeping you up too early, and it's scrolling cat memes.

Sleeping is the best. I wish I was asleep right now. It's so cruel we have to wake up and go to work. We should be able to sleep and come in whenever we want. It's 2026! We don't need it! Revolt!
