Welcome, all! We have another absolutely purrfect Caturday among us and we need to commemorate the only way we know how -- cat memes! 

There's literally nothing better than cat memes and Saturdays, and the combo of the two is simply purrfection. And here at I Can Has Cheezburger, we take Caturday very, very seriously. It's like our weekly holiday and we love to spread the joy of this day with a combination of hysterical and wholesome cat memes. 

So, climb aboard -- there is room for everyone to enjoy this gift that keeps on giving! 

Ahh, meme-ories. Does anyone remember this classic meme, "The Shy Shark?"

It's no secret that a majority of us are terrified of the giant fish, regardless of the classic film "Jaws". I mean, a prehistoric ancient fish lurking in the water, with just it's fin popping up now and then? It's a terrifying image and anyone who says otherwise is flat out lying to you. 

That's why the 'Shy Shark' makes us so happy. With its confused and oddly adorable expression, for a moment, we aren't as afraid as we usually are. 

Another Friday is upon us and that means -- I Can Has Cheezburger's original user's cat memes! Commonly known as Lolcats! 

Each week, we dig through our lovely users' newest and always original cat memes and select the top 25 to share with other cat lovers! If you want to join the fun submit cat memes of your own, take a look at our Meme Builder.

Oh boi! It's that time again where we gather up the hottest and freshest dog memes circulating the web! And this week brought some surprising and hilarious memes, all for your devouring! 

We love featuring dog memes whenever we can because it's the perfect blend of hilarity and purity, the ultimate recipe for an ideal meme dump. Dogs are magical beings and we don't deserve them. Don't question it, you know it to be true.

Believe it or not but it turns out the very first cat memes were created over 100 years ago, thanks to a photographer named Harry Whittier Frees. Harry Whittier Frees dressed up cats and posed them with props, just the way one would photograph a human. He basically did what people do today before it was cool. 

Frees was born in 1879, Reading, Pennsylvania. In an interview with LIFE magazine, it was told he took his first "lolcat" photo completely by accident! The year was 1906 when his family gathered for dinner and brought a paper hat. They passed around the hat from head to head until it was placed on the head of Frees' cat. At that moment he took a photo of a cat with a hat. The source mentions how admired the shot was so he began to take more photos of cats in outfits and props. 

These photographs were taken in the early 1900s with a camera speed of 1/5th a second. As as we all know, cats (especially kittens) move constantly. Especially when you're trying to take a picture of them! So you can imagine how difficult it must have been and reportedly, two-thirds of the negatives had to discarded due to their blurriness. 

Honestly, it just makes the following images that much more impressive! Feast your eyes on the world's earliest cat memes: 

It's hump-day and what better way to help push over that hump than some hilarious (and a bit naughty) animal memes? 

You're quite welcome! We hope the following memes provide you with the same entertainment it has provided us! 

And if you're deeper in a mid-week lull than most, and need an extra cat meme boost to sky-rocket you through this, we've got just the thing. 

Happy Monday, everyone! We know Monday's aren't the best, in fact, they are literally the worst. But that's all the more reason to share some wholesome goodness with the world! 

Anything to help brighten up your Monday and hopefully the rest of your week. And that all starts here with wholesome animal memes. 

If this Monday is hitting a bit harder than usual, you may need an extra dose of wholesome, but we're prepared for such an occasion! 

Tumblr. 

The great and funny world of Tumblr. Oh the gems, one might find. Like for instance... cat suggestions by cats, or... funny dogs, or just plain old funny tumblrs! 

Either way, we came across a good one. Hilarious memes, in Russian...translated to English! Just imagine the google translation on that one! Well, actually no need to imagine, we've rounded up quite a few for you to laugh at! 

Happy Funday, beautiful readers! First off, thank you for choosing this dump of animal goodness as your morning start, it's a good choice.

Second, you're in luck because this week we've gathered a good chunk of fresh animal memes that are circulating the web! The best of the best can be found right down below! And if you're in need of an extra animal-filled boost, don't miss out on last week's dump! 

These owl memes have got us feeling owl kinds of good! Get it? Because "owl" sounds like "all"? 

We'll stop now. 

Did you know there are up to 220 species of owls in the world? We swear we feel like we've only seen 15 or so. And that it's a myth that owls can turn their heads a full 360 degrees? Close but not all the way because that is absolutely terrifying. 

Oh, and you know those big owl eyes that stare at you with the force of a thousand suns? Yeah, apparently an owl's eyes account of 1-5% of the owl's body weight. Which is insane but also doesn't really surprise us. 

Enjoy some owl goodness on us! 

Happy Caturday, everyone! 

Here at I Can Has Cheezburger, we take Caturday every seriously. It's like our weekly holiday and we love to spread the joy of this day with a combination of hysterical and wholesome cat memes. It's the only true way to celebrate, in our eyes. 

Except, of course, eating all things you're not supposed to and then taking an 18-hour nap but waking up just in time for others to go to sleep. Right then, it's the purrfect time to demonstrate all your ninja moves but not so stealthy. In fact, the louder the better! 

Enjoy your Caturday! 

Oh, squirrels. They are just entertaining animals. Their frantic movements, their amazing acrobatic selves move with such urgency and grace (well... sometimes). 

The way squirrels need to infiltrate any and all birdseed feeders they come across. They're wild and hilarious and we can watch them all day. Instead, we'll settle for some memes to pass the time.
