Cats

This question has been asked since time immaterial. Like "why is the sky blue?", the quandary of why cats are so adorable has puzzled scientists and pet owners alike for thousands of years. We are here to try to help provide some answers, and maybe get famous along the way for solving this nagging problem. We take cash, credit, and bitcoin, as well as communion wafers. And in the spirit of these adorable house pets we've arranged for cute cats and kittens by the dozens all in one place. What could be better than that ?

What an adorable and creative idea! It all starts on the closed Facebook group, 'THIS CAT IS C H O N K Y,' when a fellow cat lover slipped deeper into the cat lady role by creating a needle felt of her cat, made entirely from the cat's own shed fur. Then another user hopped onboard and created a needle felt of her cat and shared the results:

There are between 44 to 48 recognized breeds of cats in the world, depending on who you ask. So we took on the monumental task of deciding which ones go in our top 10. These cat breeds are incidentally among the most popular in the world, and every year there are more breeds being recognized. I'm still waiting for Cheetahs to be recognized as house cats. If you thought training a dog to get a beer was clever, try a cheetah, it will bring it faster than you can get up from the couch.

How would you rank these cat breeds? Which one wins this makeshift pet pageant? Is there a breed missing? You be the guest judge. Maybe you can give us some suggestions for our dozens of cute cats and kittens for you perusal.

These adorably silly videos of cats will raise your mood INDEFINITELY. Sound on to experience the cuteness ten-fold. 

Simon and Theo live across from each other, and their owners noticed that from a distance, they seem like they might get on.

Apparently, there is one way to prevent mice from backing down in the face of a dangerous cat. According to new research presented at this year's Society for Experimental Biology meeting in Prague, if a baby mouse is exposed to the L-Felinine compound found in cat urine, they are less likely to run from cats when they're older. 

With more than 7,000 followers on instagram, the rescue kittens, Daikichi and Fuku-Chan, have been traveling Japan With Their Owner for the last 8 years. Their owner, Nagasawa, documented their adventures on their Purr-fect instagram page and we just love it! It all started in 2011 when Nagasawa had to travel frequently due to his work and decided to take both of them along with him. He even adapted a stroller to fit the needs of his cats during the journey.  

Here are the funniest, cutest and plain bizarre cat videos of the week! Enjoy! If you missed last weeks top 5, you can find it here!

In a new teaser for Toy Story 4, it's not the toys that have fans' and animation aficionados' jaws dropping — it's the toys' feline nemesis. Pixar's progress in life-like animation may be best demonstrated by this cat who is really something else. 

It seems like cats are enjoying the show more than us and we can totally understand that. 

Happy Caturday everyone! Be sure to take in all the delicious cat memes, stuff yourself into a cardboard box entirely too small for you, and claw up the furniture (even though that scratching board is less than a foot away)! Caturday goodness is here to feed your hungry soul!
