cute

Sometimes, the strangest things go viral on cat twitter, and we accept it and love it and give it as much love as possible. This time, cat twitter has presented us with one of the strangest sleeping phenomena in the cat world. I mean, we all know that cats love sleeping in the weirdest positions and in the weirdest place, but the cat faceplant always takes the cake.

How are they breathing? Are they going through an existential crisis? Are they okay? Should we give them a snack? Doesn't matter. First things first, we should take a picture. And twitter users did just that, adding their own adorable furballs to this viral cat thread and giving us all the cuteness we could have ever asked for this weekend. 

Turtles and tortoises are some of the coolest animals on the planet in our opinion. They live for so long, they're so resilient despite being so slow, they're chill and - don't forget - they're so adorable. They look like they're little prehistoric dinosaurs left on the earth from some time in the past, strolling around, watching the world evolve all around them. 

All turtles have that feeling to them, but baby snapping turtles really encapsulate that dinosaur image. On top of that, they might be some of the most adorable turtles we've ever seen. And considering how cute we think all turtles are, that's a real achievement lol.

February is coming to an end, and it's time to celebrate one of our favorite days ever - international polar bear day. Why do we love it so much? Well, because we love polar bears, of course. They are so cute, so fluffy, they are a vulnerable animal species whose population is decreasing, and polar bear day is the best day to bring some awareness to the struggles facing this animal. As well as look at super adorable pics of them. 

If any of you love polar bears as much as we do and want to help with the conservation effort of these huge teddy bears, consider going to Polar Bears International and learning about them as well as donating to help keep them safe and happy. Have a beary happy polar bear day, everyone! 

Three months ago, in an event that puzzled wildlife carers, hundreds of bat pups were abandoned by their mothers at the Rockhampton Botanical Gardens. The number of bats that needed help was so massive, it overwhelmed local volunteers. It ended up taking three three groups from Brisbane and one from Townsville getting together to rescue all of these bats. 

Today, according to ABC News, "[m]ore than 70 baby black bats on the brink of starvation... are now being released into the wild after carer groups from across Queensland united in their rescue."

Happy Caturday, fellow cat worshippers! Today is a great day because we're officially in the heart of the weekend and there's nothing for us to do by relax and hang out with our favorite felines. 

Here at 'I Can Has Cheezburger,' we taking Caturday very seriously and have an on-going tradition that we won't be breaking anytime soon... or ever. That tradition entails the devouring of countless cat memes. Promptly followed by even more cat memes as a dessert. Once we are chonky and satisfied, we will find the ray of sunshine beaming through our house and proceed to nap in it for 16 hours. 

Trust us, it's the only true way to celebrate Caturday. 

If you can't get enough of original cat memes, be sure to check us out on Instagram where we feature original cat memes daily! 

Happy Friday, fellow animal lovers! We know it'll be a good Friday after we saw all these recently adopted faces this week! Our hearts are absolutely bursting at the sight of their beautiful faces in their forever homes! 

As always, we would like to start by thanking all of those who have recently adopted a pet, all those who have adopted a pet in the past, and all of those who will be adopting a pet in the future. You all are changing these animals' lives for the better, so, thank you. And a mega-huge-ultra shoutout to those who animal a senior pet or a pet who requires a tad more tender love and care. You are our forever heroes. 

If you're thinking about getting a pet, please consider adoption. So many animals out there are in need of loving homes such as yours. 

There have been times before where we've been asked, by people who don't have pets: "how do you know that they love you back and don't only love the food you give them?" And in our hearts, the answer is obvious - we can feel it. In every interaction, strange and unique as it may be - we feel the love that our pets have for us. 

Today, we're bringing you some proof. Our animal-loving ICanHasCheezburger Facebook users shared with us strange ways in which their pets show them they love them, and they were all so hilariously adorable, we simply had to share them with the rest of you guys. If you love your pet and treat it right, it will show you love back. 

If your pet has some weird ways of showing love too, come tell us about it in our Facebook community: ICanHas Storytime. 

TGIF, everyone! It's time to end the week in the one correct way possible. Every single week, we round up the best of all of the best cat tweets of the week - all of the cutest, funniest, more awwdorable cats that everyone on twitter is talking about. Because we that, as cat people, you want to know what's going on in the cat world.

Cat twitter is so active though (not that we're complaining). It makes it hard to keep up with everything that's happening on your own. That's what you have us for, keeping you up to date with not all your cat twitter news but all of the other things happening in the animal world as well. 

Have an amazing weekend everyone, and don't forget to make the best of it by cuddling your cat as much as possible. 

It is a known fact that cats are indeed liquid. Their bodies have the ability to contort in such ways that would be shocking to inexperienced cat people. But we - cat owners - we know that the level of liquidity that cats have is about 99%, and these pictures are the newest collection of proof. 

If I fits, I sits - if you are considering getting a cat, learn this statement, for it will lead you through many moments. If you don't see your cat all of a sudden, don't fret right away. Check all the boxes, all the nooks and crannies in the house, don't put it past your liquid furball to hide inside of some bowl somewhere. You will find them in the strangest place. If there's the smallest chance of them fitting into something, they will try to sit in it, and odds are they will succeed. 

Okay, so, cats are weirdos, can we all agree on that? Yes, great. I mean, they're the most awwdorable weirdos in the whole wide world, and we love them no matter how weird they are, but sometimes, their madness is a little bit too much for us to handle. Like, when they start randomly zooming around the house at 3am? Yeah, that's when they're a liiiitle too much. 

These tumblr posts capture the 3am madness perfectly - the random, unexpected and somewhat shocking bursts of energy that you sooo don't expect from your lazy cat. It's like something takes over than them, and they just can't stop themselves. It's not the most fun thing in the world to experience, but it sure as heck funny to read about. 

Just a humble little gallery of some kitty chaos and laughs! We can never have enough cat-humor at 'I Can Has Cheezburger,' it's what fuels our engines all day long. More cat content? More fuel in the tank. It's as simple as that. 

And we're certain that you follow cat-lovers know and understand this concept quite well. We don't know the science behind why it works, we just know that it does work and that alone is enough for us. It's best not to question cat science, none of it makes sense anyway. 

Enjoy this chaotic and adorable kitty gallery of goodies! 

Turns out, baby Puffer Fish are heckin' adorable! Why didn't any of you tell us?! They either have this cute little smile and look like a wee baby or somehow look like an adorable old man. Either way, they are precious and must be protected.

Honestly, we're not entirely sure all the fish images below are in fact Puffer Fish, but their cuteness got to us anyways and we felt the need to share.
