26 Playful Cat Memes to Purrfectly Match a Meowrvelous Mood

Cats make everyone's day better: unless, of course, you're a mischievous mouse trying to raid the household pantry. 

Maybe the first cat that was welcomed into a human home provided a service to its human that was not unlike a pest control officer. Mysterious and confusing in their ways, cats weren't exactly seen as the ideal cuddle factory, and were more notably avid hunters with mean-beans and precise acrobatic skills. A cat can catch a flying bird or a scuttling rat; maybe they could protect the human household from pests! 

It was a genius idea, one that was even more compounded when humanity realized that cats are also lovable little beings. 

Cats are good for more than just pest control. They can snuggle on a cold day, play feather in the kitchen when you're waiting for the kettle to boil, and they purrvide endless entertainment when you're working from home and really should be looking at your laptop but instead are looking at the cute face of your kitty. Although cats are often caught sighing heavily in the warmth of the windowsill or hiding atop the highest crevices of the house for a quicky ambush, cats are the most wonderful pets. 

Meowing for extra gravy on their kibbles, humans must never forget that this delicate, asthmatic feline was once a great and powerful hunter! Cats are meowraculous like that. They trick us into thinking they're helpless babies so that we do all of their dirty work for them (namely, the litter box). So the next time your cat is pretending to be useless, remember that they are still your home's protector, pawfessional snuggler, and the in-home pest controller. You better get those cat treats out and thank them for that!
