Autumn is the season of wonder, whimsy, mystery, and transition. It's just like a fairytale, with the changing of the leave's colors, the desire to get lost in a forest, and the coziness of it all. Enjoy these feline funnies of fall foliage for a fairytale autumn.

Fairytales aren't just for kids. As adults, we can always make our own fairytale adventures. Cats love it too. They're purrfectly suited to match the magic of fall. They love the cold weather so they have more of an excuse to be as introverted as they are. They love getting wrapped up in a blanket and just enjoying the cold weather outside, as if they're in a storybook. Cats have always carried a little mystery with them. Their glowing eyes against a backdrop, and their overall sense of lore. So enjoy these feline funnies of fall foliage in a fairytale autumn.

Fairytales are special because they teach us things. They teach us about life, how to wonder, how to be creative and how to imagine a world outside our own. Even as adults, we can think of any fairytale we want. The world is our oyster, and there's no rules about daydreaming. Cats are basically out of a fairytale, and fall weather gives all kinds of whimsy.

When I was a kid I especially loved the season of autumn. I just loved the cloudy days, the lack of sun, and the crispness of the air. I loved the feeling of finally being able to put on a soft and warm sweater, to feel like the weather was comfortable again. It was usually still relatively sunny where I grew up, but I remember one day was very cloudy, exactly how I like it. And we had a different school day. We did pumpkin carving for hours on this special cloudy day. Something about it just felt perfect for me, and it's my quintessential memory of autumn as a kid.

For every majestic kitty gazing thoughtfully across a misty autumn landscape, there's another attacking a decorative pumpkin, launching themselves into a leaf pile, or occupying the exact blanket their hooman had planned on using. Cats have a wonderful talent for existing somewhere between enchanted forest familiar and ridiculous little guy. So pull on your favorite sweater, pour yourself something warm, and join us for a wander through a fairytale autumn filled with colorful foliage and whiskered whimsy.
