I’M CRYING LOOK WHAT MY CAT DID IN HER SLEEP
Blep blep blep
CATS ARE SO WEIRD
Oh my god. This is too cute.
My best guess is that it’s a motor pattern involved in a dream the cat is having - probably either grooming behavior or drinking. Either way, awwwwww.

this is a perfect baby cat! some cats are just super tolerant and patient and able to have really adorable rewarding interactions with babies and this looks like one of those. its body language is always pretty relaxed, even when being hugged.
even if it’s not enjoying every second of these interactions, it’s willing to tolerate them. it isn’t distressed or reactive to the baby.
We have 3 cats, one fat shorthair male, one slightly less fat but longhair female, and one tiny little runt-of-the-litter shorthair grandma cat that weights about 4 pounds (she’s perfectly healthy, just the size of a 5 month old kitten). Fatso and slightly-less-fatso have the most dainty, small, high pitched meows. So dainty. So cute.
Meanwhile our tiny grandma cat sounds like a hawk screaming with gravel in its mouth when she meows. She sounds like the devil.
Is the cat just trying to move the carrot, or?

the cat is trying to absolutely fucking murder the carrot
(in all seriousness, this is an example of the overlap in play and hunting behaviors in cats. the cat is playing, but playing for cats involves practicing their hunting skills, so the cat is gripping the carrot and kicking it and shaking it and biting it in an effort to weaken it for possible killing and eating. all in good fun!)

He’s helping.
I’m a cat enthusiast and i can tell you, the kitty is actually trying to help! (or just trying to figure out what humane is doing by also touching it)
Cats like to mimic what other members if their cat groups are doing. In human enviroments, this translates to cats following humans (who they see as part of their group) and trying to mimic activities they are doing.
Human sits on couch? Cat sit with them! Human reading or on their computer? Cat go after human and sprawl over them or the keyboard because cat do the same! Human eating? Cat also want eat! Human touch spining clay and make weird shapes? Cat also do that! Cat help!
I’m constantly seeing that crying cat meme on my dash and i gotta remind yall that cats and dogs do not cry naturally, those animals all have eye infections
i’m just worried this kind of anthropomorphism is going to lead to people not recognizing that their animals are sick.
dont worry, this is super photoshopped! this is the original, healthy cat:
thats the devil actually
The Black Footed cat is the smallest wild cat in Africa and one of the smallest wild cats in the world.
Here’s an adult kitty for size comparison:
too smoll
OK but you can’t mention my all-time favorite cat without also mentioning that these little motherfuckers are legendary for being 1000% ready to throw down with anyone at any time, they’ve literally been seen trying to fight a giraffe and are known to successfully bring down sheep by getting underneath them and ripping their bellies open like what the fuck, chill
Their name in Afrikaans means “anthill tiger” because they’ll hide inside a hollowed out anthill and then jump out and try to rip your face off
They are perfect and I love them
Aw, look at these little murder muffins.
smallest and deadliest wild cat. Observed at a 60% success rate in hunting, and averaging a kill every fifty minutes—a lion might succeed in hunting twenty, twenty-five percent of the time. Their small, energetic bodies require a rate of a-murder-per-hour in order to sustain their metabolisms.
(“miershoop” can also mean “termite mound”, which is one of their preferred places to sleep)
All the rage and power of a regular hunting cat condensed into a baby
This my bebe. Bebe is bigger than me. Strong bebe
ok friends i wanted to confirm this story’s accuracy before reblogging so i googled it and yes it’s TRUE
AND ALSO the mom cat raised the lynx baby ALONGSIDE HER KITTEN so we have all these cute pictures of the lynx cub with the kitten please look at them
^^^ FAMILY PORTRAIT
Please remember to oil your cat periodically to avoid squeaking.
(This is an adorable fluff muffin at the cat shelter where I volunteer. She has a rather unusual purr.)
She sounds like a kitty spaceship.
Look at this beautiful Floridian Swamp Cat and her adorable kittens.
That There is A Gator
No that’s a Floridian Swamp Cat
As a native Floridian, I can confirm that that is indeed a swamp cat.
