Have you ever watched an animated movie, and you're sitting there, enjoying yourself, and then one of the worst, most terrifying-looking animal comes onto the screen and you feel like you've fallen into a different dimension? Well, twitter users are going through this existential crisis today, and we think it's so funny. 

For some reason, movie animators have a tendency to try to make animals look more "attractive" or more "realistic" by giving them human features, and they always miss their goal by a mile and a half. And give us nightmares in the process. At least these animated animals are funny to laugh at though. 

Admit it, if you're a cat owner, there are times where your little feline stares at you from across the room with their eyes shining in the darkness, and you wonder to yourself about what creature you actually brought into your home. Yes, it's true, cats may be lazy, they may be adorable, they may have the fluffiest bellies and the most wholesome purrs, but they are still creatures of great strength and power, and no one should get on their bad side. 

Oh, we're kidding. Have you ever seen a kitty stuck in a curtain, crying for help until you help pull their nail out of where its stuck. Cats like Maddie and her brother may be a little intimidating sometimes, but it's never for reals. ...we hope. 

If you have ever spent some time on the internet looking through animal pictures, you know that there are some insanely weird animals out there in the world. The kind of animals that just do not look real, the kind of animals that you look at and think that there is no way something like this exists in the real world, you will not believe it unless you see it. 

We, as animal connoisseurs, have gotten used to coming across weird animals online, but when regular twitter users encountered them, hilarity ensued. And we just had to share it. 

Oh cats, there is nothing in the world that we love more than we love you guys. The ridiculousness, the hilarity, the wholesomeness - all in one little fluffy package. Stories of their shenanigans and stories of their affection are ones that we love equally, because so long as a story has a cat in it, that story is worth a read. 

And the short stories and threads in this collection are ones definitely worth a read. It's a collection of hilarity and wholesomeness - all starring kitties, and we hope you love it just as much as we love cats. 

Happy Caturday, cat-loving readers! We're so excited because Caturday is our ultimate favorite day! Why? Well, it's a day dedicated and filled with cats! That's why! Also, each Caturday, we make sure to bring you an array of fresh and funny cat memes!

When it comes to Caturday, we have a strict ritual we stand by. It begins with taking in this list of fresh cat memes, and then to be immediately followed with another list of cat memes. From there we either decide to take on the third course of cat memes to fall asleep for a "quick catnap" for roughly 18 hours. Upon waking up, we terrorize the house and make sure there are no sleeping members within the household. 

Then, our Caturday is officially complete. 

It's time to give some love to some itty bitty hyperactive bundles of joy: ferrets. They're cute, they're tiny, they have more energy than all of us combined, and they don't get nearly as much love as they should. So on this National Ferret Day, we're about to give them some of the love that they deserve. 

Hop around and dance away like a cute ferret, and have your heart melt at the pictures of these tiny cuties. We hope that this dose of cuteness will be the perfect start to your perfect weekend, and we wish all the ferrets out there a wonderful, wonderful weekend too!

Dogs, dogs, and more dogs, that's what today is all about. Why? Because we love dogs so, so much, and we believe that every day should be about dogs. Inarguable. Just look at your dog right now and tell us that you wouldn't want to celebrate it every single day. 

This collection of doggo appreciation has nothing but pawdorable dogs who really deserve everyone's attention. They're all adorable in their own ways, and they all deserve love. And personally, we think that filling our hearts with doggo adorableness is one of the absolute best ways to start any good weekend. So, enjoy these pawdorable puppers, friends, and have a great weekend!

This is one of the most annoying yet most hilarious cat traits there are! If you happen to have a cat that doesn't bother you when it comes to eating absolutely everything, consider yourself lucky. We got two cats, one who will be in your face from the moment you open the fridge then the moment you finish your last bite. And even then, you gotta clean up ASAP before the little dumpster kitty will attack any leftovers she could get her paws on. 

Then, there's the other one -- gentle, sweet, never begs for food... Unless you happen to have sunflower seeds or an equivalent salty snack. In that case, there's no way this cat will leave empty-handed, he is determined and he will get what he wants. Which is a single seed. 

Cats are hilarious when it comes to food, they don't give up and they try to steal our food in a not-so-obvious way, but let's be real, it's always obvious. That's just what makes it all the more hilarious! Thanks to Twitter user, @iHugMajima, for bringing this thread of cats stealing food into our lives!

We're in the big leagues now! We've gathered up some of the greatest cat gifs of ALL TIME. They're all waiting for you right below! But first, let's take a moment to appreciate the beauty that is cat gifs. They are truly a gift to us all. Whenever we're feeling down or just in need of a pick-me-up, we turn to cat photos. And they provide us with a lot of joy. The only thing slightest better than looking at photos of cats is watching gifs of cats. A photo will always look wonderful but gifs can really show a cat's personality, and we think that, sometimes, that's what we really need. 

Let's enjoy this big bowl of happiness together! Dig in, fellow cat lovers! 

Giving a name to your pet is something sacred. It is like naming a child. It's the name you'll be using when you ask them "who's an adorable little baby?", it's the name you'll be yelling when they inevitably do something that they know they're not supposed to do. The name must be chosen with care and with the future in mind... 

Oh, we're kidding, the best pet names are the silliest ones. There is nothing funnier than walking your dog outside and yelling "Beef Stroganoff, don't eat that!" It's perfect. And apparently, our lovely Facebook users have given some of the silliest (strangely food-related) names to their pets, and we just had to share our favorite ones with you.

Welcome, welcome, animal lovers! It's nearing the end of the week, and that means it's time for some extra fextra giggles. Prepare yourself. You're about to receive a healthy helping of the most refined animal memes that the internet has been absolutely loving this week. 

Yes, we know, some delicious animal memes is what we all need right now. As people who love both animals and the ridiculousness of the meme, animal memes are the perfect combo for us. Just chef's kiss. May you enjoy this humble collection of memes, and for those of you who need more, here is another delicious helping. 

This is one of the strangest videos we've ever come across. Do you remember the Pixar film 'Ratatouille'? And how "anyone can cook"? Perhaps this is a true way of thinking. That anyone can do anything... even animals. When we think of cats on pianos, we think of them running across them during their regular psychic runs, and with each step on the piano keys, a loud and awful sound that would also terrify the cat running across it. 

Not this cat. This cat in the video below, is standing up on the piano seat and it presses individual piano keys and the result? Kind of amazing. A lot of Redditors were also impressed by this cat's clear skills and we're afraid to comment on their thoughts. 

We were first introduced to Nana last year when her awwdorable self went viral due to her extremely expressive photos. With those big expressive eyes and silly little mouth movements, Nana soon became a queen on the internet and a meme legend! 

Her unique expressions quickly made her a star on the Chinese social media platform known as Weibo. Nana has an impressive following of 245,000+ followers and once you scroll down you'll probably want to follow too! If you haven't already, that is. 

Get yourselves ready to fall in love with a real starlet! 

Happy morning to all! We're happy because how can you not be when it comes to dogs? Do you know when people call other people a ray of sunshine? Yeah, no, DOGS are those rays of sunshine and they shine brighter than anyone or anything. They are so pure that their ray of sunshine is practically blinding, but it's worth it. 

Once a week, we search for the newest and best doggo memes to bring you a premium experience! Dogs can make us smile with a single glance and we're hoping these memes will provide you with some smiles, as well. Thank you to all the dogs out there who make the world a better place, please never ever stop being just the way you are.

Get ready to dig into this scrumptious dog treat we worked so hard on!
