cute

If you're a cat owner, then there is no doubt in our mind that you have seen your cat doing some weeeeird things. Of course, that doesn't make you love them any less than before, if anything, their strangeness is what makes them special. You don't question it. All you do is snap a picture and enjoy it while it lasts. Oh, and tweet about how weird your cat is of course. 

Just remember, although your cat's behavior is strange, that cat is your strange cat, and if it likes licking walls sometimes... rather than trying to teach it to stop doing it, just make sure your walls are clean for its enjoyment. Don't forget to come tell us about your weirdos in our Facebook community as well!

Earning a cat's affection is normally not easy. They are naturally suspicious creatures, especially those of them who may not have come from the best of circumstances, so for them to show their humans trust and love is not an easy task. Some cats will take a few days to get used to their new environment and people and will grow to trust you quickly. Others might take years. 

A post on Reddit went viral of someone sharing the absolute unparalleled joy they felt when their cat finally chose to rest on them for the first time in 10 whole years. Goodness, was the wait for it. Other users chimed in, sharing their own stories of their cats finally, finally, choosing them, and we found each one of them incredibly heartwarming.

Cats. We can't get enough of these beautiful felines, whether they may be physically in our lives or not. We can't help but fall in love with each and every cat we see and/or read about online. We can't help but get personally attached to each one. 

Cats provide us with endless joy and warmth. They make our lives more full, bring us comfort when we need it, bring us laughter when we need it, they are constant entertainment. Oh, not to mention, they're cute 125% of the time and completely irresistible. We could talk about what cats mean to us forever and it'll never do it any justice. 

Cats are a part of our lives, and sometimes that part leaves us and it will always feel like they're leaving us too soon. To all those who recently lost a pet, our hearts are with you. They may be gone but they will never be forgotten. 

Two baby otter cubs that have been discovered walking down the street of Inverkeithing in Fife have been rescued and are now being taken car of by the Scottish SPCA. 

As BBC News reports, the two cubs, both about three or fours months old were found by members of the public on Saturday. Now, the two are "in the care of officers at the National Wildlife Rescue Centre in Alloa." It is believed by the care takers that something happened to the cubs' mother and that the two would not have survived on their own. 

The staff members have named the female cub Inver and the male cub Forth.

Okay, so be honest, how many of you bought a really expensive cat toy/bed this year, hoping that your cat will love it and use it and sleep in it and that you'll be able to take the cutest pics of them with it, only to have the cat disregard the purchase completely? Be honest. It's all of you, isn't it? We've all definitely done it. 

There's no shame in wanting the best for your kitty. It just so happens that sometimes the best for your kitty is... having a big ol' box to sit. And let's be real, box pics of "if fits, I sits," are some of the best pics out there. It's still funny though, and we have been laughing at these tweets of cats choosing cheap 'toys' over expensive ones for the past 10 minutes straight. 

Have you ever looked at your cat and wondered: "what the heck are you doing?" Yeah, same. We believe all cat owners have these moments. Cats are just like that sometimes, they just do... cat things. Sleeping in weird ways, stealing your food, playing with your hair clip for half an hour while totally ignoring the 20$ toy you bought them.

Cats are chaotic good in other words. They're strange, but they have good intentions (most of the time), and we love them all the more for it. So, enjoy our latest favorites from r/WhatsWrongWithYourCat, and let yourself fall in love with these feline hooligans a tiny bit more today. 

Cats and their toys! How many dollars have we all spent on our beloved felines? Too many to count or even think about. And after spending all that money on buying them all kinds of different toys, what do they end up playing with? Hair ties, a sock, a Q-tip, a straw, whatever you accidentally drop on the ground and think of as "trash" is literally their new-found treasure. 

One toy each cat can at least enjoy is the classic mouse toy. You purchase a handful because you know just how much your cat loves them and then in the span of less than a week... they all vanish! How can this be? 

Well, let's dig into it! In collaboration with Israeli artist, Ilana Zeffren, we look into the scientific facts behind cats and their toy mice.

This Tuesday is more difficult the most Tuesdays because, for a majority of us, this Tuesday is literally our Monday. So that just means we need an extra delicious animal-boost to cheer us up. The good news is, because this Tuesday is our Monday, our week just became shorter by one day, and that, my friends, is a reason to celebrate. 

Celebrate with cute animals, that is! Once a week, we search through the depths of the web to bring you the cutest animal pics and vids we happen to stumble across. They are an essential and vital part of one's diet so we take this search very seriously. We hope you've got those bibs on nice and tight because this feast is so delicious, it's bound to get a bit messy! 

Enjoy! 

An incredible friendship between a man from Turkey and the swan he rescued has lasted for decades. 37 years ago, a now retired postman, Recep Mirzan, found a female swan who he later named Garip in Turkey's western Edirne province, and they have been friends ever since. 

As NEWS CHANNEL 3 reports, "Mirzan and a group of friends were taking a shortcut in their car when they noticed the swan, with a broken wing, in an empty field. Mirzan immediately took the swan in to protect her from predators and kept her in the car until that afternoon, when he was able to take the swan to his home." Ever since then, Garip has been living on Mirzan's farm in the Karaagac region near Greece. Whenever Garip is out of her pen, she accompanies Mirzan during his chores and evening walks.

It's important to sometimes take a step back and remember how important you are to your pets. We all take them for granted sometimes, forgetting just how much joy and love they bring into our households. We can't help it - we're as used to them living in our house as we're used to our own human family members. 

To warn everyone, tumblr users decided to boost a post that remind everyone how important our pets are to us and we are to our pets. They might be tiny, but they love you so much, and you are their whole world. 

Have your own heartwarming pet story to share? Come to ICanHas Storytime, tell us all about it, and let us all fawn over your adorable fluffball. 

Cat have many talents, we know that. Those include staring at walls, sitting in anything that'll fit them, sleeping in the strangest positions, zooming in the middle of the night and many more. But apparently, white cats have an extra talent, and that is the ability to turn into a purrefctly cooked sunny side up egg with the help of but one accessory - an orange. 

Yes, we know, we were surprised too, but these tweets prove how talented these cats are. They are mildly annoyed white fluffballs, but they are very talented indeed. If you have a white sunny side up purrfect kitty, come share a pic of it with us right here!
