cat stories

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 passing year was purr-fect with some pawsome cats who made us laugh, cry or both...So without further ado, please welcome the cats of 2019!  

The passengers on the trains and buses of New Jersey are all familiar with one very special lady. She has been seen traveling all over the city with armloads of cat cages and supplies. But what exactly is she doing? It's time to tell the inspiring story of Jennifer TrapQueen Barnes.

Writer @Nicole_Cliffe asked for advice regarding her own "mean cat," fellow cat owners were quick to respond with advice and share their experiences.

We've all seen pictures and read stories of how cats adopt people. Well, this one might outdo them all! One night Paris Zarcilla (@ParisZarcilla) casually went into his room looking for a jacket before going out, only to find that a cat gave birth to kittens beneath his bed! (Oh this is not his cat!)
