If you ever get a cat, be prepared for some shenanigans. You must be fully aware, before you make the decision to get one, that all of your precious items will be at risk and will have to be moved to secure locations, and that if your cat ever sits on your eggs, it's totally normal behavior. 

Thank you, @cats_places, for providing all the picture proof we'll ever need of such perfectly normal behavior, warning all future cat owners of potential disasters and making cat owners laugh with fondness at their silly little furballs sitting exactly where they shouldn't. We love our little hooligans no matter how many things will break, and if you do ever get a cat, you will too.

Most people, when going to adopt a pet, tend to go for the little ones- the baby kittens and puppies who they'll get to raise into their families. And of course, while every adoption and every rescue is to be celebrated, it's important to remember to adopt senior and sick pets too. And sometimes, it happens that this understanding comes to you as you're already in the shelter, about to pick up your tiny new baby, and then an older one-eyes cat looks at you, and finds its way right into your soul.

A tweet sharing a story like that went viral, and other twitter users with similar stories chimed in, sharing their own stories of last minute changes to adoption plans- ones that ended with them picking up the less fortunate animals and giving them a warm home too. 

So, bring in the tissues and let your heart warm with joy. 

Do you ever walk into a store and feel a sudden chill? As if someone or something is watching you? Well, you may be right, and that someone or something watching you might just be the store's supervisor -- a cat. 

One Twitter account, Bodega Cats, features images of cats, from around the world, in various different shops. What are these cats doing in these shops? Well, they're running the entire operation of course! These cats are supervising that all order is properly maintained. It's no easy task but someone has got to do it and cats are natural-born leaders, after all. 

Bodega Cats originally started with a few photos of New York City neighborhood cats and has become a worldwide phenomenon! The money made from Bodega Cat's web store (which is filled with cool cat goodies) goes towards helping Flatbush Cats. Flatbush Cats is an organization focused on giving cats a second chance to enjoy life. They work on reducing the outdoor population of cats in Brooklyn by TNR (trap, neuter, return), free/low cat spay/neuter for low-income residents, rescue work, and adoption. 

Rescuing a cat is a challenge - always, but us, cat lovers, sometimes can't help ourselves. When we wanna help a cat and set our minds to it, we will do it. But what happens if the cat you just rescued from the street starts getting fatter and fatter, and you think to yourself that it's just because you're feeding it so generously, and then a couple months later, that cat gives birth and you have an adorable squealing litter on your hands? Allow twitter users to tell you their stories. 

A tweet about @ParisZarcilla's amazing story went viral, and people started chiming in and telling their own stories of cats in their lives unexpectedly giving birth, and these stories are heartwarmingly adorable. So, check them out, and if you have stories like that of your own, come share them in our ICanHas Storytime Facebook community!

Meet Pebbles, a blind kitty who you're about to fall in love with. 

"As a tiny kitten I was left at a dump to die," says the description of Pebbles's Twitter account, "I had a terrible infection in both eyes. Someone brought me in to my mom's vet clinic, and she fell in love!"

With a happy-ending story like this one, where Pebbles got the love and support that they deserved, Pebbles decided to spread love and support back. Pebbles's Twitter account has nothing but love, kindness, and support. So, it's only fair that we give some love and support back to this blind beauty and say thank you to its mom for taking it in and giving it the love that it deserves.

The new and hot Twitter account, Why You Should Get A Cat, is a page dedicated to posting hilarious and adorable pics of cats for people to use in order to convince their parents to let them back a cat. 

Brilliant, no? We certainly wish we had a site such as this when it came to convincing our parents when we were younger! However, it exists now and that's all that matters. There are many reasons to get a cat, and while this Twitter account doesn't necessarily list reasons why the photos posted do give us a strong urge to run out to the shelter and adopt even more lovable love bugs! 

If you recently adopted or want to share your reasons why you should get a cat, check out our new Facebook community, 'ICanHas Storytime' where our users can finally share their stories. 

Welcome to another Friday, cat lovers! You have officially made it through the week, and now, it is time to take a breath, chill with your cat, let your body and mind relax as your kitty slow-blinks at you, and enjoy this week's best cat tweets.

Twitter's love for cats is just as infinite as ours. And honestly, we can't think of many better ways to start your week off than some cat tweets. They're funny, they're wholesome, they're cute and silly, and they'll definitely put a smile on your face. So enjoy these cat tweets friends, and may your weekend be chill, cat-filled, and absolutely purrfect!

Choosing a name for your pet is not an easy task. It's the name that will stick with them for the rest of their lives, that'll make them come over when you say it (or totally ignore you when you say it if they're a cat). So, you wanna get that name decision right. Or not. 

A bunch of tweets that wet viral show that even the simplest, least inspired, least creative name can be a good one so long as its given by people who care about the pet. TC seems to be a name that people enjoy giving their cats, and guess what it stands for? The Cat. Yup. Simple, accurate, catchy and hidden in plain sight. You'll never suspect what it stands for unless you ask. 

Let's be honest, we love teasing our kitties. We'll feed them, pet them, cuddle them and give them every bit of love that they need and more, but... we'll also kiss them one too many times and annoy them. And sometimes, we'll try to hold their paws because maybe this time they'll let us. 

And these twitter users have decided to place a wet food can in front of their cats' faces and see what happens. Credit where credit is due though- at least one of them left their cats written instructions. And twitter, being twitter, of course, got these tweets to go hella viral.

These kitties better have had their humans open these cans for them by the end of this experiment is all we have to say. The cats did their best, now give them treats please. 

Let's be real - we all talk to our pets. And yes, we totally believe that they understand us. We tell them everything from our daily struggles and achievements to how cute they are and how smart they are and how beautiful and gorgeous and chonky and oh my goodness you're such a good puppy- anyway. 

It's totally normal to talk to your pets, don't even worry about it. And twitter is here to prove just that. After a tweet telling the story of someone talking to their pet went viral, other twitter users chimed in and started sharking funny stories of them talking to their pets as well. So, don't worry, you're not alone in talking to your pets. 

Okay, Saruman's dog counterpart is seriously spot on. And so are a lot of the others! 

When Twitter user, @Coppertopmpls, came up with the brilliant idea to match dogs to different 'Lord of the Rings' characters, the thread went viral. And of course, it did because... what's not to love about a comparison between the timeless classic of LOTR's and the undeniably adorable dogs of the world? We consider this a win-win situation. 

What do you think about the chosen dogs for each character? Is there one that is a definite yes or some that you would suggest a different dog for? Let us know! 

Here's a story out of 2020 that no one predicted: a cat named Billy became a postman. 

Twitter user @zacharyking, in a thread that went viral, shared the story of how his girlfriend began corresponding with one of her neighbors through little letters attached to Billy's collar. It all started with Billy showing up one day with a little note attached to his collar, in which the neighbors that Billy apparently kept visiting said hello. Not thinking much of it, the girlfriend attached a letter to Billy's collar, replying to them, and lo and behold, the cat comes back holding another letter. 

The rest is history. The neighbors became friends, recipes were shared, Billy got an official postman collar - then lost it and got another one - and we are all endlessly impressed by this cat's work ethic. Read their adorable story and smile at one of the most innocently wholesome stories of the past year.
