28 Heartwarming Pics of Cute Cats Hanging Out in their Natural Habitat

The modern day cat's habitat is a thing of great contention. But seeing as many of them still live outdoors as they once did, we choose to believe that the forests and fields are where they truly feel at home. And so we made this collection of cute cats in their natural habitats to prove said point.

After all, what are we doing as feline pawrents if not recreating the forests and fields of the world by buying our cat children trees, scratching posts and more items that in one way or another serve to replace the real thing outdoors? And when we do those things our cats use them for their intended natural purposes.

Whether it be sitting atop a cat tree and yelling at birds that they would like to eat, or stretching and scratching a post (or tree trunk), they are fully fixated on recreating the things they were instinctually bred to do in this world. So we figured we would put together this list of cats in their natural habitats to remind the pawrents of the world that it might be a good idea to take their cats out of the home every now and then to sniff a tree.
