aww

Ah, yes, the five C's have gathered once more to bring you this delightful compilation of cute (and very silly) cats. Is there anything better in this world than that? Don't answer, it was rhetorical. 

Looking at adorable cats doing their strange adorable cat-like things is much more than we could ever as for. It simply brings us joy and we hope that watching the following gifs will bring you joy as well. As we always say, cat gifs are a gift and that is the gift that keeps on giving! And with Thanksgiving coming up, we just can't help the gratitude we feel when we come across such cuteness. 

If you're finding yourself in a less-than-cheerful mood after seeing these cats, perhaps you'd benefit from even more cuteness. 

Poetry about animals can truly be inspiring. And apparently a tiny little poem about a dog from the perspective of a cat, written by yours truly (hi)(just kidding, it's totally a cat who wrote that, not me) has made our Facebook users excited to show off their own cat and dog bffs, and we couldn't be happier!

A friendship for the ages between our favorite animals - kitties and doggos, and so many of them too! Whoever said cats and dogs don't get along definitely hasn't met any of these besties. Big and small, cuddling, protecting each other from storms, they're best friends, and we want to be their best friends too.

It's Tuesday. The second Monday, as we like to call it. Thankfully, this is the day we decided to refill the dose of cuteness prescription, ensuring you with some major aww's to get you through today, and hopefully, the rest of the week!

Once a week, we refill the cuteness prescription dose so it's overwhelmingly adorable. We do this when we sense the cuteness energy may be running low and need a good ol' boost. This week's gathering of the cutes has been quite successful. Your dose is now filled, please be cautious of the one major side-effect -- cuteness overload. 

Other than that -- enjoy!

Be sure to have your sound on to fully experience this awwdorably magical moment - a pup's awoo! What is an 'awoo' you might be asking, and good question! An 'awoo' is a replacement for the word howling, the 'awoo' is the sound of a howl and therefore has been more commonly used to describe a dog's howling instead of simply saying, "Check out those wolves howling!"

Awoo's are simply the cutest, and watching a pup really get into an awoo is too much cute for us simpletons to handle. The awoo's are all different and we're head over heels in love with them all. Truly, we have no favorite when it comes to a pup's awoo. Get ready to feel all that warmth fluff instead of you because this is guaranteed to bring up those serotonin levels! 

Cats can be a little rough sometimes, let's be honest. When they bite us, playfighting, and leaving little tooth-mark holes in our skin, it's not the most comfortable feeling. But we love cats. And we love them when they're having their big-cat-energy moments just as much as when they're turning onto their backs and asking for belly rubs.

So, this one is for all the biggest cat fans out there who are not scared of a tiny little cat love bite. It is us who will give the love bite its full love and appreciation. And we shall wear the tooth-mark holes on our arms as marks of pride!

We know how you're feeling, Monday is back and it's even harder now that it's getting colder and darker so soon. We can't really do anything about all that but we can bring you some cheerful and wholesome animal memes to ease the pain and the suffering! Memes are a wonderful source of laughter and we can literally look at them all day, but when you add wholesomeness to the mix AND animals, it's quite simply the most perfect meme that could ever exist. 

We hope this heart gallery of wholesome animal memes does what it does best, warm your heart and bring a smile to your lovely face. We understand if you need more wholesomeness to get you through the rest of the week. We could always use a boost! 

We wish you all a wonderful and wholesome upcoming week! 

Sweet and innocent little Pixie is growing up and learning more awesome features about herself! Such as how lighting can play a "very cool" effect on a cat's eyes. Little Pixie growing up is a bittersweet realization but we're grateful for the wholesome comics that still remain. 

Ben Hed, the creator behind 'Pixie and Brutus' is constantly coming out with new amazing comics, sometimes featuring other animals such as dinosaurs. Commonly known as @Pet_Foolery on Instagram, Ben Hed has a huge following of 2.4 million and with comics such as these, it's clear to see why!

This week's tumblr treat that we have for you guys is all doggo all day long. It's wholesome, pawdorable, and cute as bork. It's exactly the kind of positive energy that we know you need for the start of this week. 

So, get yourself prepared for some good ol' doggo goodness with nothing but pure vibes and and even purer doggos. Because dogs are some of the most innocent kind-hearted animals, and tumblr knows it, so there are about an endless number of wholesome tumblr doggos. But these ones are some of our favorites. 

For more tumblr purity, we have some wholesome tumblr animals and specifically, some wholesome tumblr cats. 

Surprise! Well, it can't be that much of a surprise. These expressive pets look as if they were just told the most shocking news -- and what's more shocking than finding out you're adopted? We're sure there are plenty of things but this one just felt right. 

Expressive animals are one of our favorite things in this world, it's so hilarious and truly makes it known that all animals carry an arrange of emotions, just like us. You can see when they're angry, scared, or happy. You can tell when they're shocked, curious, or suspicious. They wear their heart on their sleeve, their facial expressions just give them away and we're so thankful for that! 

There are cats who are more expressive than others but all cats can show some facial expressions. Here are 20 pets who just discovered the dreaded truth... they aren't the hooman's biological baby. 

Wholesome interspecies animal friendships is one of everyone's favorite things, and today, tumblr is giving us a look into one of the cutest ones - cheetahs and doggos. It's a classic tumblr story, where one meme leads to an entire legendary thread that began with simple wholesome and adorable facts about how sweet cheetahs are and somehow turned into an appreciation post for cheetahs an puppies. 

It's a thread that gets better and better the more you read it, and it's so heartwarmingly good, we had to share it with you. May this bring as much joy into your day as it always does to ours and as much as these doggos bring to these cheetah cubs. 

Happy Caturday! You've been cordially invited for quite the Caturday! Beginning with a mega feast. We've put out all your favorite meals, decorated the table, and even put out the fancy plates and silverware! You aren't required to attend in black tie attire but it is a respectable event with a lot of fancy folks. Think Met Gala but with cats instead of literally everything. That would be a good guideline for how to act and dress at this event.

It is also mandatory that after indulging in this festive feast of cat memes, to partake in more cat memes for dessert. Afterward, you will be lead to a nap room where you can nap for up to 23 hours. It's a very organized and generous event and we're thrilled you're here to join us for it. 

Enjoy!

Happy Friday, everyone! It's always a happy Friday here at 'I Can Has Cheezburger' because of all these beautiful newly adopted faces! Our hearts continually burst to see all these lovely animals in their forever home. This week we have plenty of newly adopted faces and even some senior animals who have found their place. 

We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to all those who have adopted recently, all those who have adopted in the past, and those who will adopt in the future. And, as always, a mega shout out to all those who take a chance on adopting an older pet, or a pet who is in need of some extra love and care. You guys are our forever heroes. Thank you to giving these animals a second chance.
