Just because a woman has a cat, it doesn't mean she's a "crazy cat lady."
Photographer BriAnne Wills is looking to debunk this false image of women with cats—one photo at a time, with her ongoing project called "Girls and Their Cats" (GATC).
Since 2015, she has snapped portraits of women and their felines to showcase them in a positive way—as interesting ladies who love their cats. The initiative has been a hit; over the course of several years, she has photographed more than 300 women and their rescued, adopted and fostered kitties across the U.S.
Here are some of their beautiful stories.

The AI engine that produced the creepy cat photos is called StyleGAN because apparently, what works for human faces proved to be another story when it comes to cat faces.
In fact, the images of these made-up people were so good it was nearly impossible for human viewers to distinguish from photos of real people. But for some reason, the same algorithm that generated flawless human faces created cats with misshapen heads; the wrong number of eyes and legs; and bodies that were too long, too short, unusually rotund or rectangular, and bent at peculiar angles.
So, why couldn't StyleGAN create adorably realistic cat photos? The algorithm was doing its best with what it had to work with — and when it came to cats, the thousands of reference images that it used were less than ideal, said Janelle Shane, a researcher who wrote about the bizarre cats on her blog AI Weirdness.

From the 1940s through the 1960s, the Alfred Mainzer Company of Long Island City, NY published a series of linen and photochrome humorous cat postcards illustrated by Eugen Hartung (1897–1973), sometimes referred to as "Mainzer Cats". These postcards normally illustrated settings that are filled with action, often with a minor disaster just about to occur. While the dressed cats were by far the most popular and most plentiful cards, Hartung also painted other dressed animals – primarily mice, dogs, and hedgehogs.
