What does somebody get out of having a cat? Well, primarily, they act as a kind of living alarm clock that has no qualms about breathing in your face when you oversleep and forget to feed them. They are also a potential depositor of surprise bodily fluids around the house, and great at scratching up that furniture that you didn’t want to stay nice, anyway.

On the flipside, they are also a furry friend who is there for you when nobody else is (I mean, they have no choice in the matter), and something to provide you with endless entertainment through their silly feline antics. This is why they lend themselves so easily to memes, where they can delight the entire world with the stupid humor that they inspire. If you ask us, it is just the thing you need for a little pick-me-up smack bang in the middle of the week.
