parents

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.

Cats are often misunderstood creatures. Cat-Parents can often find themselves even paying for it. However, every cat-parent knows that all the accidental (and sometimes purposeful) scratches and spinsterhood jokes are worth it. Being a cat-parent is weird and funny and sweet and simply satisfying. If you are considering getting a cat and wonder what it's really like, then you should really go ahead and take a gander at this post.

Cat-parents and cat shenanigans come in all shapes and sizes and they all have hilarious anecdotes to share. Some of these anecdotes are life lessons and some of them are simply stories to be shared over a beer with friends. Either way, you can't help but chuckle when reading these.

There aren't many things out there that put smiles on our faces as when we see a similarity between us and our parents. It's wholesome moments like realizing that your ears totally look like your dad's that remind us - oh yeah, we really are family. And with cat moms and dads... it's only cuter. 

A tweet went viral with two pictures of cat parents and their almost identical-looking baby kittens, and the internet's hearts have melted. Of course, a whole lot of other people also rushed to share pictures of their kittens and their cat families, and this is exactly the kind of wholesome content that we feel like we need today - purely positivity and another else. 

Oh man, so many things wrong with this and so much anxiety! Over the past week, one college student and Redditor, nexerxe, shared some disturbing news that rattled the animal-loving community... The Redditor's parents gave away the student's cat, Spotty, without telling them about it. 

How heartbreaking to find out your beloved pet was given away without you even knowing? We can't imagine. Unfortunately, that's what had happened. 

But our love for our pets is strong, so nexerxe decides to hunt Spotty down and with the help of the internet, they were able to track her down. Nexerxe then processed to set up a GoFundMe campaign to raise the funds needed to re-adopt Spotty. Ten selfless people chipped in to help raise the money needed so this broke college student can be reunited with their cat. 

We are so thrilled this messed up story has a happy ending! We have a soft spot in our hearts for those who will do anything for their furry friends. 

They are not called "Cat Snakes" for nothing...

These parents are totally winning the parenthood
