Cats are an important part of our lives. Think about it, they bring us peace, comfort, happiness, and while it may not always be happiness they bring, we are forever grateful for having them in our lives.

And cats may not be in our lives for as long as we wish but they leave such an impact on us. There's nothing more difficult than losing a loved one and that pain doesn't go away. You simply learn to live with it over time. 

This week, unfortunately, quite a few beauties crossed over the rainbow bridge and we'd like to honor them and keep them alive by featuring their beautiful faces here. To those who have recently lost a pet, we send our hearts to you.

This cat medley is not all sad, however, there are moments in here filled with hope, glow ups, and all of them are filled with love. 

Curious cat mode is probably one of the most entertaining modes that cats have. It leads to the most ridiculous and hilarious cat situations ever. It never ceases to amaze us just what cats will do for the sake of satiating their curiosity.

Sometimes, their curiosity leads to them making a mess and doing things that they really shouldn't be, but other times, it leads to some adorable cats sniffing your camera right when you're about to snap a picture. Don't fret though. That picture is not a lost one. As proven by this insanely popular twitter thread by @dilucwrld, pictures of cats getting up close and purrsonal with our cameras are incredibly valuable. 

It's Halloween month, and everyone is getting festive. That includes out cats and kittens, of course. And what better way is there for them to get ready for Halloween than to get into that new orange house that you worked so hard making for them? Oh, it's not for them, you say? Pttt. Of course it is. 

Halloween is the time of year when some animals reeeally get to thrive. You got your black cats finally getting the time in the spotlight that they deserve. Suddenly, people are aware of how adorable tiny bats can be. It's a beautiful time, and these are beautiful kittens, and we are so excited for this year's Halloween!

Awwwee! We love happy endings! 

This gorgeous gray kitten was all alone in the woods when just by chance, decided to bolt out into the road. It just so happened that Brittany, a volunteer of Sparkle Cat Rescue was driving by and noticed something bolt from the trees and flash across the road. 

Brittany told LoveMeow, "I was certain it was a squirrel at first but after I passed it, I saw in my mirror that it ran to a tree and stopped. I turned around immediately to go check it out."

Oh, how blessed are we to get another bundle of glorious cat memes so soon after Caturday? Very. 

When it comes to cat memes, we can never truly get enough! And to get 18 fresh new cat memes? My, oh, my, it's almost too much greatness for us to handle. We adore cat snaps, wholesome cat galleries, and cat gifs. However, there is nothing quite like a humble dose of cat memes to bring out the happiness within all of us. 

Here's to you and a wonderful rest of the day! Enjoy this miniature meal we've prepared for you, we promise it holds all the necessary nutrients. 

Think of the last time that you were so relaxed you just... let all of your muscles loosen and laid down in absolutely whichever position you've found yourself in. Maybe you were starfished on your back, maybe you were flat on your face, maybe you put your arm over your head in just the right position and didn't care if it was going to fall asleep because of it. Ladies and gentleman, that means that you, too, have experienced The Sploot. 

Animals are the sploot connoisseurs. Dogs have mastered it, and now, cats must show their skills as well. The following pictures are ones to learn from. Doesn't matter that the week has just started, you have to learn to remember to relax and do the sploot every once in a while, just like these very talented cats. 

When Twitter user, Kelly-Leigh Cooper (@kl_coop), accidentally spilled her cat's food all over the floor, she managed to capture his reaction, and that reaction has taken over Twitter. The priceless reaction of a cat who has just witnessed a miracle -- endless food. "So much food, where do you begin? What is the first move? Is all this really for me?" These are all thoughts we imagine are running through this adorably expressive cat's mind. 

Other Twitter users were quick to join the conversation and add just how much they adore the cat's mind-blowing expressions! Some users even began sharing their own experiences with overwhelming food. Others just couldn't get over the adorable cat, and honestly, neither can we! 

There's a reason we treat cats and kittens like kings and queens even if we don't all know it. Within them, cats hold insurmountable power. They just keep it hidden. They can't allow us to know the true strength that they hold because we may be too intimidated. 

Their power hides behind softness and purring and kneading, but sometimes, in true moments of rarity, we get a glimpse into the true Power of Cat. The following pictures may blind you with their aura, so we must caution you. Look at them at your own risk. And if you feel overwhelmed, here's some wholesome pictures of cats cuddling each other to calm you down. 

There are features of cats we often like to shine on a spotlight on; toe beans, ear tuffs, teefies, more toe beans, loaves, and again, toe beans. What we have yet to shine a spotlight on is their glorious whiskers! And nowadays, there seems to be a subreddit for literally everything because we stumbled into one called r/whiskerfireworks. 

A subreddit filled with giant, long whiskers and we're in love. They definitely look like a firework explosion in the sky and we're completely enchanted! If you have a cat with some glorious whisker fireworks, share a pic in the comments below! 

Is there truly a better way of starting off your weekend than some adorable and hilarious cat tweets? We think not. Which is why, every week, we present you with the most meow-tastic tweets of the week. 

Cat twitter truly does never disappoint. Every single day, people find new cat things to tweet about. Cats are just that powerful. It's enough for someone to see a cat with adorably chubby cheeks for twitter users' hearts to melt and for the tweet to start making the rounds. For us, it's just a matter of finding the best ones for you to enjoy. So, we hope you do, and that you have a purrfect weekend!

It is a fact that cats are the ultimate zen masters. Whenever they get into that most concentrated, chill headspace, it is not easy to get them out of it. You can poke them, speak to them, pet them, and still, they be chill. They're hard at work, contemplating reality and deep philosophical questions. It would be a privilege to get into that cat's head and see the secrets of the universe.

Since we can't do that though, we use this moment of contemplation and show our own mental prowess by placing things on our cats' heads. It's one of the most silly and amusing things in the world. When they look you in the eye with that pen on their heads - that's one of the moments that you can really see what they're thinking, and it's something along the lines of: "fine, human, I will allow you this moment of entertainment, but you better give me a treat after."

'Cat and dog energy boost' is the most powerful and nutritional protein bar there is! Jam-packed with superfruits and oats, and with a heap of smooth peanut butter to make it all salty-sweet!

We hope you're having a wonderful day so far but if it just so happens that you aren't... the following tweets may have the power to fix that right up. Everyone who is having a fantastic day, these tweets will only add to the greatness. We've got some funny moments in here and a dash of wholesome, and everyone knows funny + wholesome = absolute perfection. 

Enjoy your nutritional energy lift!

There's something about super fluffy cats... a majestic aura that is absolutely undeniable. And you can tell that they feel that power too. The way they walk is full of pride, their floofy tails held up high. They recognize that they are the rulers of that space, and we agree. 

Just running your fingers through the fluff on that tail feels like getting to touch something magical, and some cats' tails are fluffier and more majestic than most. All that said, those cats sure do leave a lot of fur all over the place. That's okay though, we forgive them. We wear that fur on our clothes with pride. 

Halloween is nearing, and we're all starting to come up with ideas for costumes. It's not easy to come up with something impressive when so many things have already been done before. Well, allow these cats to teach you how its done, since their costumes are almost definitely better than yours. 

An incredible account on tumblr called cat-cosplay showcases these amazing cat models in different, really impressive cosplay costumes. "Our feline companions are assisting us in learning new crafting techniques with new materials on a small scale for everyone to enjoy!" From Bob Ross to Harley Queen, all the costumes are impressive, and all are inspiring us to up our costume game for this year's Halloween.
