Good morning, and good scroll. Laying in bed, no work, weekend vibes, purring kitty, and a little drizzle of rain on your window is all we need to enjoy ourselves in life. There's endless memes to go through, so let's get going!

Gourd-geous chonky animals are absolutely precious to us for good reason. With social media it can feel like everyone looks perfectly shaped and beautiful, but in reality every shape is beautiful. Whether you're pumpkin like, shaped like an apple, or an acorn squash, or maybe you're a butternut squash. No matter what you're shaped like it's beautiful. Not just to us at Animal Comedy, but to the world. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

A pre-breakfast scroll binge is not only enticing, it's good for the soul. If you're a fall loving folk who simultaneously loves a harvest of wholesome, then these memes are for you. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so they say. There are few things we do before breakfast, but scrolling somehow makes the cut. We turn off the alarm, roll out of bed, brush our teeth, pet our precious furry friend, and sometimes make it to our phone to do a good ol' scroll before the difficulties of the day begin. The morning often sets the tone for the whole day. For many, scrolling through humorous or comforting online media serves as a transitional space between sleep and the start of the day. Cat memes, in particular, play an important role in this ecosystem through their ability to transcend anyone and anything.

Sometimes a good binge is all we need to really feel better, whether it's food, a Netflix show, or a good scroll. With the cold seasons approaching and building up, the winds winding, the skies greying, it's always a comfort go-to to scroll some adorable cat memes.

Breakfast is not for everyone. Plenty of people actually don't eat breakfast at all, but for me it's one of the highlights of my morning. I love making my eggs and toast every morning. I always have it with a little salad. Something I love about it is that I can be creative, I can have it with tahini, avocado, cottage cheese, yogurt, or just plain bread and butter.
