cat memes

Smudge the Cat was the BIGGEST cat meme of the year! Not only that, but did you know Smudge also happens to be the largest and longest-running cat meme ever? So far it has over 4 million views (and is the quickest meme to reach that number), and that's just on Know Your Meme! 

All hail Lord Smudge! 

And if you don't know who Smudge is at this point... you clearly live under a rock. Or, perhaps, you know Smudge as the never-ending and ever-evolving meme, "Woman Yelling at Cat Meme." 

Smudge is such a huge star, one artist made a lengthy comic about the iconic meme! 

Either way, we're here to honor Smudge for quite possibly being the largest cat meme legend of our time. Congratulations Smudge! 

Here are 40 of some of the most popular Smudge memes (but let's be real, there are literally hundreds of these memes circulating the web and new ones being created every day).

As the 2010s draw to a close it's time to look back at what an incredible time for cat memes it has been. The past 10 years have brought us the funniest, most savage and outright weirdest cat memes ever. 

But it's difficult to remember them all, let alone think which one is the best. So we made a shortlist of 200 cat memes and held a good old democratic vote as to what has been the ultimate best cat meme of the decade.

Over 68,000 of you voted, and in the end, it was a pretty close call. But there can only be one true winner. 

So Here are the best cat meme of the decade final results and we will start by presenting to you the ones that were ranked 100-51, in descending order.
