Any cat-parent will tell you that the nature of cats is that they never come when you want them to, and they will always want to cuddle when you are at your busiest. Even as I'm typing this article, I have one cat spread out over my laptop and another cat under my chair asking me to pet him. Therefore, cats are notorious for laying across our keyboards, gnawing on our pencils, and not allowing us to turn our pages. Basically, cats are always sitting where they shouldn't.

Below, you all will find recent pictures and stories of this wild and consistent phenomenon. But truth be told, no matter how annoying a cat can get, it is endlessly cute and will always raise a chuckle. However, you will never have a say when your cat does this.

Something that all cat owners have come to understand over the past year is that working from home when you have a cat is not easy. Your cat is annoyed with you for not leaving its house for so long, you have to deal with their endless annoyed meowing, your cat keeps invading all your zoom calls. The reality of working with cats is relatable to all cat owners, and it is absolutely hilarious. 

Of course, the talented Israeli artist, Ilana Zeffren, understands the situation just as much as any other cat owner, and in her latest comic, she has managed to capture that reality purrfectly. Except that she's showing us the cat's perspective on the whole thing. Spoiler: it's too funny. 

We have some amazing news from Ilana as well! A fresh collection of her hilarious and adorable comics are about to be released as a book in England with Soaring Penguin Press! Soon, you'll be able to buy a copy and enjoy reading more of her art. Having seen her comics before, you know just how amazing she is. So, if you want to find out more details about her book as well as show some love and support to a talented fellow cat lover, check out Ilana's kickstarter right here.
