It is a known fact that cats are graceful and elegant, swaying from side to side, keeping their back and tail held high. Confident and superior. Today, we have gathered here to prove that belief... right. 

What? You thought we were gonna say that we'll be disproving it? That pictures of cats "dancing", i.e. caught mid-jump, or caught mid-hunt, or mid-fall are silly and funny and ridiculous? Pssh, well, you are more than wrong. Dancing cats have skill, they are grace, they are elegance, and anyone who says otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about. 

Trust us, we are experts in cat memes, and these perfectly timed pictures, courtesy of princesstigerbelle on tumblr, are not cat memes, these are pieces of cat art. Cart. 

What is it about animals that make us feel so warm and happy inside? They are just so pure and so loving, even the ones that you may not think are loving. All animals tend to show love and affection in their own way, much like humans. 

Like a human, they may have some trust issues or they may be scared when it comes to love. Animals are so much like us yet better. They truly are the essence of warmth and purity. 

Face it, when you come face to face with an animal, you can't help but smile. It's impossible and it's not something we ever want to fight. Take a breather with these heartwarming and silly gifs, guaranteed to put a smile on your face (small or large).

These animals are jammin' out to their favorite songs -- and it's contagious! 

They've got the moves, they've got the groove and there is nothing that can stop them now! 

You'll want to make sure your sound is on when watching these, it'll enhance this happy journey you're about to embark on.. have fun! 

Once a week, we will be featuring an extraordinary animal account on Instagram! Their story, the adorable pictures, and pawesome videos! This weeks spotlight goes to Chaco, the cat with some seriously fierce dance moves!

Chaco, a 3-year-old cat from Japan, has a variety of special moves! When Chaco is mid-air, he looks like a professional ballet dancer flying gracefully. When he is on the ground, it almost seems like he's break-dancing! From popular dance moves like Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' to the Village People's 'YMCA' -- Chaco can do it all!

Everyone has heard of Cats, the musical. It is one of the longest running Broadway shows in history, and its actors wear distinctive cat costumes that are hard to confuse with anything else. If you want to know more about Cats, you are in the right place. We're breaking down the plot (yes, Cats has a plot) so it'll be easier for you to understand what the heck is going on. WARNING: SPOILER ALERT. 

Move aside, Peacocks! There's a new stylish and colorful bird in town -- chickens in tutus! From little chicks in cupcake liners to full-grown chickens in rainbow tutus, we can't stop gushing over how adorable these chicks look! 

An army of Tyrannosaurus Rex invade Michigan Stadium during the University of Michigan Marching Band halftime performance last Saturday. It's not the first time it has been done, but it doesn't make the dancing inflatable dinosaurs any less delightful. People just loved it.  

Can you feel that rhythm? Does it make you want to dance? Well, you aren't alone! These animals feel that rhythm too, and they are dancing it out!   

I guess we all just gotta shake it when we hear that beat! 

Gemma Marin and Israel Duffus first caught our attention back in March with their epic dance videos throughout Gemma's pregnancy, but now that she's given birth, the couple's videos have gotten a major upgrade.
