Cats get a lot of bad press these days. Why? I'll tell you why - people are jealous. I have a theory that all "dog persons" have been spurned by cats once in their lifetime. So instead of trying to win the affection of a cat, they've decided that all cats are evil and that's why the cat didn't like them (basically, dog people are "the nice guy version" of animal lovers). Are you interested in the inner thoughts of cat lovers? I'm sure you are because we are fascinating people.
Side note: not all of these gifs are relevant to the article. Some are just adorable. That is all.
1. Dogs are so much better than cats.
Who started this competition? I bet it was the dogs. Cats are too apathetic to care.
2. Ew you like cats?
Uh yeah and if you don't like cats you can get out of my face. (Cat lovers are very aggressive about defending the ones they love).
3. Cats hate everything.
Uh no my cat loves me but I'm starting to hate you.
4. Cats aren't even cute.
You're not even cute. Why are we having this conversation?
5. How does it feel to be ignored all day?
I wouldn't know, because my cat woke me up at 5 a.m. by nuzzling my face. He also met me at the door when I came home from work.
6. The litter box is full!
I love my cat but I do not love what comes out of my cat.
7. Is that a furball?
I've said it once, but I'll say it again: I love my cat but I do not love what comes out of my cat.
8. Did you leave the door open?
"Why do you ask? Can you not find the cat? Is the cat gone? Where did he go? I didn't leave the door open, did you?" This question sends us into a frenzy.
9. "We are all out of sunglasses with cats on them" - Target employee
One thing about cat lovers is that we love to share our love for cats on our apparel - as you have probably noticed. It is how we identify other cat lovers. Loving cats creates an instantaneous, deep bond.
10. Instagram is down.
But it's Saturday, aka Cat-urday. How am I supposed to show everyone this adorable candid of my cat stretching?? I couldn't possibly wait 30 minutes! #nofilter
You mean I don't have enough room to take this adorable selfie of me and my cat? How tragic. Time to delete those photos of me and Lindsey at her wedding. (Just kidding, Lindsey, I would never delete those photos to take a picture with my cat. Probably. Maybe.)
12. "I absolutely hate cats" - Potential Bae
Wow. What a tough choice. Usually this means that potential bae is a goner. You have to really like this guy to keep him around after this truth-bomb!
13. The cat is sitting on this thing that you need.
If the cat is comfortably sitting on something, I couldn't possibly uproot him! I guess I will just send that super important work email when my cat finishes his nap.
14. Someone broke the laser toy.
WHAT ARE MAX AND I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW, HUH? We couldn't go back to a long strand of yarn after experiencing the bliss of a laser toy!
15. The cat is on the puzzle.
Well, I suppose the puzzle will never be completed because there is no way that all of these puzzle pieces will survive the cat's rampaging tail.
16. The cat didn't like his Christmas present!
Oh no! You mean he didn't like his sweater? I thought he would! It's cashmere! (Don't lie, cat lovers love to get their cats presents all the time).
17. You're allergic to cats and there's nothing we can do about it.
This is the worst nightmare imaginable. All I need is me and my cat. I love you, Max.
"In a perfect world, every cat would have a home and every home would have a cat"- air freshener that is hanging up in my car. I <3 you, Max!
