silly

If you've never tried to make your cat play with bird/fish videos on your laptop, now is the time. They might not care, or maybe they'll just care for a little while, but for the time that they do care, it'll be the funniest thing you've seen your cat do in a while. No, silly kitty, you can't catch the bird on the screen, but it's sure as heck funny to watch how confused you are. 

And goodness, you better hope that they don't accidentally pause the video as they're watching, because the confusion is only going to intensify. Actually, never mind that, pause the video for them and laugh some more. And laugh at this tumblr thread that gives us the best of cats birdwatching on computers while you're at it. 

Cats are awesome. Period. Inarguable. Anyone who truly hates on cats has obviously never actually hung out with one. And twitter has decided that it is time for all of us - cat ladies and gentlemen - to assemble and defend out little felines... you know, those felines who totally didn't rip your curtain or step on your sandwich earlier. It's time! We must defend them.

People misunderstand cats, that's the obvious explanation for all the cat hate. Cats simply love and show affection differently, and the people who don't bother learning the way cats show love think that cats are cold-hearted. To us, cat lovers, cats being loving is a mere fact that needs no explanation, so of course, we'll defend them when we are needed.

It's Mondaaaaay! The best day of the week, right, guys? No, not because you get to start a new work week or school week and be a productive human being. No, no. The reason Monday is the best day, of course, is because that means it's time for our weekly animal twitter treat segment, where we show you all the best, most talked about animals on twitter this week. 

There's something for everyone - funny, wholesome, adorable - twitter loves animals of all kinds. So yes, it may be a Monday, but at least you're gonna get to start it off in the best way possible. Enjoy, friends, and have an amazing, amazing week!

Is there any real way of knowing if an animal is extinct or not? How do scientists make that decision? Those were the thoughts of one twitter user that went viral all over twitter, and we cannot stop laughing at the responses. 

Honestly, they're right. How can we know for sure? Some extinct animal species end up randomly being found in some places on Earth every once in a while. Who's to say that they're not simply hiding from us, totally done with all of our weird human shenanigans? They're probably messing with scientists just as much as they're messing with us, and honestly, that is one of the reasons why we totally love nature. 

Well friends, it is almost Monday again, and we are here to make sure that you start your week off right with your weekly tumblr animal treat. This week, it is all cats and nothing but funny. Because of course the most purrfect way to start a week is with cats - in all shapes and sizes - but especially when they have that unique little tumblr humor touch. 

So, enjoy these silly and pawdorable tumblr cat posts, purr your way into this next week, and may your week be filled with cats and love and purrductivity.

Cats have the weirdest habit of sleeping in the most uncomfortable ways, but the faceplant - that one might be the most iconic. 

It's as adorable as it is concerning. How do you breathe like that, cat? Are you okay? Have you had a rough day? Can I help you? But in reality, cuteness wins over, and we'd never actually move our cat from this ridiculously uncomfortable-looking sleeping position. I mean, we've seen cats chilling on eggs before, this really shouldn't be that surprising...

And of course, thank you to the subreddit r/catfaceplant for providing us with this quality cat faceplanting content. All of you are doing important work of keeping cat entertained day by day lol. 

So... are your pets allowed on the furniture? My cat tends not to ask. If anything, my cat allows me on the furniture sometimes, since obviously, the bed belongs to her, and the couch belongs to her, and the table... you get it. In my naivety, during the first couple days that I had her, I tried to keep her off the bed for fear of crushing her itty bitty self, but she persisted, and she won, because of course she did. 

And apparently, my cat is not the only one with such purrsuasive abilities. Twitter users have been sharing their own funny stories of (dis)allowing their pets on furniture, and we're both laughing because relatable and crying because relatable. Much as we want to keep our pets off our furniture, we're apparently all too weak for them.  

No matter what - you have to remind yourself - that no matter what, you love your cat more than anything in the world. Broken vase? That's fine. Ripped curtains? Not mad at all, it's completely fine. Dragged my sandwich under the bed and ate half of it? I wasn't even planning on eating that. No matter what. 

Cats being chaotic is something that we signed up for when we adopted one, and there's no escaping it. Cats simply are chaos. They're weirdos, and they do strange things, but who isn't? Honestly, we can all probably learn from them and at least accept our own chaos in the most chill way possible. 

Oh, cat lovers, you have made it through yet another week. Only Friday is left, and then you'll be able to have the purrfect weekend with all your kitty cats. No worries, just meowing and cuddling. And you already know that the only right way to start the weekend is to grab a cup of tea, a fluffy warm blanket, sit back and read through this week's best cat tweets. 

It's the only right way for us cat people, catching up on twitter's favorite murdermitten fluffballs and soaking up all the joy provided by these hooligans. We hope you have a wonderful weekend and that your cat will curl up on your lap for a minimum of 2 and a half hours during it. 

Every cat owner knows that cats food - the morning wake up screaming is iconic at this point. But some cats have the tendency to get too enthusiastic. My cat will sometimes eat so fast, she'll throw up almost immediately, and that's always awful to see. So, you have to do your best to take care of them and make sure that they don't end up hurting themselves with their overenthusiasm. 

Thanks to this informative and also funny tumblr thread, you're about to learn some ways to help your kitty calm down. It's advice for everyone - whether you have money to buy these things or you want DIY ideas. So, thank you tumblr, for allowing us to laugh and learn at the same time. 

Welcome to Thursday, everybody! The week is almost done, and soon, you'll be able to do nothing but cuddle your dog the whoooole weekend. Only that we know you need a little boost-me-up, a little extra helping of paw-erful dog memes to set your mind straight and get you through that final stretch, and nothing gives a bigger boost than some good ol' doggo memes. 

That is why, every week, we bring you the freshest, bestest dog memes that people have been loving this week, collected for your dogtertainment from the depths of the internet. So, enjoy these delicious fresh memes, and may the rest of your week be totally pawfect. 

Listen, we know that trimming your cats' nails is something that no one actually wants to do. But at the end of the day, it's for everyone's good. Our chair and couches will remain intact, and our cats will be saved from randomly getting their nail stuck inside the curtain in the middle of the night and screaming their heads off. Trimming your cats' nails is also a much better alternative to other methods - like declawing. 

Still, no one actually wants to do it, and your cat most likely tops that list. So you gotta look for ways to make it easier, and Amazon is offering you some nail trimming bags that'll definitely (most likely) do the job. The reviews are hilarious though, and thank you to @rachelmillman for tweeting about it and bringing it to everyone's attention. 

If your cat is anything like mine, then trying to train it is just... asking for trouble. She's too smart for my training, and she will find a way to use it against me somehow. Well, apparently, I'm not the only one. 

A tumblr post about cat training gone wrong went viral, and pet owners from all over tumblr shared their stories, and honestly, they managed to both making me laugh my butt off and also feel better about my own situation. Some pets will outsmart anyone, and though we may be mildly annoyed by the results of their superior intelligence, them being as smart as they are just makes us love them more. 

So, laugh and hurt, pet owners, because you will probably relate to these posts more than you realize. 

Whoever said cats are lazy, r/Catswithjobs is coming at you to prove you really really wrong. Cats are not laaaaazy, they're just... picky about the jobs they choose. Really, we should all follow by example and only take the jobs that speak to our hearts. Cats are role models - the pick jobs they love and hardly do any work in them. It's a purrfect arrangement.

And they look hella cute doing their very, very impurrtant jobs. So, enjoy this latest collection of hard working kitties, and while you're at it, after you're done saying thank you to these cats, go say thank you to some hard working doggos as well. 

Listen, no matter how good your intentions are, sometimes... weird things happen with your pets. Inevitably, your dog will eat something it shouldn't, your cat will get stuck in a closet, and your might forget your sleeping sugar glider inside your bra when you go to your urologist appointment. At least... @LizerReal did. 

Though she kept everyone updated on what was happening after she realized the little glider was in there in a thread that went viral on twitter, one can only imagine the stress she was under, trying to keep the adorable glider safe. Everything passed just fine, thank goodness, with the glider sleeping through the appointment like nothing happened, and getting back home safely. 

Lesson for everyone - double check that there are no pets in your bra when you leave your house.
