Both cats and memes can be used as a form of escapism, so bringing them together was always bound to be a match made in heaven.

We spend hours on end scrolling on our apps of choice in the hopes we will come across some funny tidbits, and we endlessly stare at our feline friends waiting for them to do something interesting, ridiculous, or cute. It is kind of the same mental mechanism, if we think about it. Cat lovers win when it comes to the internet, as they recognized these similarities early on, and combined the two to give us all hours of (mostly) wholesome and hilarious entertainment.

Cats may not realize the power they hold in digital culture, but that only makes the content that they inspire that much more special. They are just too good at getting anthropomorphized in a humorous way, whether memers are telling the tale of what it is like to live with a cat, or using them as a representation for some kind of human issue. The past couple of decades have proved that there are endless ways to present kitty humor, and there is a fanbase for it pretty much all over the internet.

With any luck, some of these cat meme fans will find themselves taking a look at this list. It is enough to give you that feline fix while also covering a range of perspectives when it comes to this varied genre. When it is over, you can rest assured in the knowledge that for the time being, there is plenty more where that came from.
