There's a reason that all of us cat lovers also have a special place in our hearts for big cats, and it is that all big cats are basically regular cats... enlarged. They have the same faces - just bigger, they are just as silly - just bigger, and they have the same habits... just bigger. 

And so, their bleps are also... bigger. And though in this case, bigger is not necessarily better, it is definitely just as cute. Regular cat bleps are some of our favorite all time cat pictures, but they're, of course, not the only animals who can do the blep. Foxes are already strong blepping competition, and now, the big cats are officially entering the race too. You be the judge deciding who you think is the master of the blep. 

Cats are simply a cut above the rest, and they know it. They look down upon us, their loyal servants, and rightfully so. They are far superior and definitely 1000x more majestic than we can ever hope to be. 

When it comes to being in their presence, we are awe-struck, we turn into babbling buffoons. It is difficult to be in the presence of greatness without making a fool of yourself. You want to please the cat(s), you want them to like you. It simply cannot be helped. 

At least by just looking at images of these superior beings, we can make babbling buffoons out of ourselves with no one around to judge. 

Every single month, animals find themselves in precarious situations for various different reasons. And every single month, the lucky ones get saved by some incredible people. We attempt to bring you as many of these stories as possible as they come out, but there are just too many of them. When you think about it, that's really amazing, having too many happy rescue stories to cover.

But since we can't cover all of them throughout the month, we've decided to collect some of these stories for you at the end of each month in a list right here to celebrate these incredible people who put their love and effort into saving animals and the animals that they celebrated. Even so, we will never be able to cover them all, but this is a start, and the people in this list are definitely deserving of more appreciation. 

So, let's say thank you together and hope that next month, there will again be too many rescue stories to cover!

Happy Caturday, everyone! And Happy Halloween! How fortunate that our two favorite holidays land on the same day! Last Caturday, we celebrated our usual way with cat memes galore, a ginormous 22-hour catnap, and the classic 3 am zoomies. 

This Caturday, we gotta include some Halloween magic to the mix! We might have to shorten our catnap to summit forth the cat council of darkness. We also need to shorten the nap enough to make more for the admiration of some gorgeous lil black panthers. They're just so much to do and not so many hours we can cut from our nap! We'll have to prioritize. 

Enjoy this humble offering of cat memes and have a safe and wonderful Halloween! 

"Yerr a wizard, Harry!" If there's something we can't get enough of its animals wearing hats. Big hats, tiny hats, all hats are made beautiful when placed upon an animal's head. 

And in honor of Halloween being right around the corner, it's important we share animals wearing none other than wizard hats! Animals are bewitching creatures all by themselves, it's simply nice to see that emphasized with the proper magical attire. 

If you're looking for last-minute costume ideas for your beloved pets, why not a wizard hat?

Snow leopards are everything. They just are. They are the purrfect blend of fierceness, cuteness, and just overall beauty. Their gorgeous fur and they're oh so fluffy! We don't think we could ever get tired of looking at such purrfection. 

International Snow Leopard Day was just a few days ago and we must honor these beauties by looking at their adorable pictures and watching their squeal-worthy videos. Did you know that snow leopards can't roar like their other feline friends? Instead, snow leopards use a call which has been described as a 'piercing yowl' that is so loud, it can be heard over the roar of a river!  

There is said to be only as few as 4000 snow leopards left in the wild. However, because they are so incredibly inclusive, it's difficult to get an accurate number. Snow leopards are being threatened due to climate change, habitat loss and deterioration, poaching, and more. Read about how you can help save these elusive beauties.
