Excerpts From Other Lives

We all know that cats are purrfectly peculiar creatures. They like the most random things, like the bottle cap that fell on the floor instead of their $30 feather toy you just bought them. It may seem like they're doing this just to spite you, but we pawmise you, they aren't. In a new viral TikTok trend, cat owners are buying their kitties simple slabs of concrete - and their cats are pawsitively obsessed with them! But the question is, why?

Well, cats love any surface that is different than the one they're on. They view the surface they're lying on as their territory, so if they are lying on your living room floor, they have a lot of area to "protect" - this explains why cats love enclosed spaces more. The rough, purrfectly porous texture of the concrete also purrvides them with ample opportunity to scent-mark, and it can scratch that itch you've been trying to get to for weeks! There are plenty more answers below, so scroll down and read them all!

Kittens are tiny little menaces. We love them more than life itself, but they are seriously smol engines of chaos that are simultaneously the cutest things on Earth and also your worst nightmare. 

They climb all over everything, run around at all hours of the night for a good 6 to 9 months… but even with all of that, you choose to keep them in your house because they are like little fluff balls with big eyes and even bigger purrsonalities. They aren't the easiest thing to live with, but they certainly do not warrant an elderly neighbor getting a restraining order against you because your kitten makes noise.

Yes, you read that correctly. After this San Diego resident adopted a 3-month-old kitten, his downstairs neighbor started calling the police on him for his cat making too much noise, and even had him summoned to court (twice)! Everyone understood how absurd this was, except for the neighbor. Read through the whole kitten cat-astrophe below!

Picture this: a cozy corner, a cup of tea, and a group of well-read felines flipping through the pages of their favorite meowmoirs and fiction books. These cats aren't just lounging, they're literary. From curling up with a classic like Purride and Prejudice to getting lost in the tail of The Great Catsby, these whiskered wordsmiths are ready to start their own book club: The Meownthly Read.

They take their reading seriously, just don't interrupt during a cliffhanger. Some lead deep discussions (in the form of dramatic stares), while others purrfer to simply sprawl across open pages. Their tastes are refined: a little pawetry here, a yarn-filled mystery there, and always a strong feline lead. And of course, they never dog-ear a page. Ever.

Whether they're reading for knowledge, cat-napping mid-chapter, or just sitting on your open laptop like it's their personal Kindle, these feline bibliophiles are here to inspire. So the next time you catch your cat staring thoughtfully at a stack of books, don't be surprised. They're just getting ready for their next purr-suasive book review.

Hello cat pawrents, how did this past week treat you? Did it treat you like a fresh can of tuna treats your kitty? Hopefully in a good way, with lots of cozy naps, soft purrs, and maybe just a little less chaos than usual (we can dream). Every cat pawrent deserves a week that ends with a happy purring floof curled up beside them, because giving a cat a loving home is a daily act of kindness - and bravery, depending on how feisty your feline is.

Now that we're going into the weekend, it's time to slip into the purrfectly lazy Caturday mindset. And what better way to do that than with a big ol' dose of cats that aren't even yours? Sure, you could try to lure the neighborhood stray with treats and chin scritches. But it's so much easier to surround yourself with feline fabulousness from the comfort of your couch, with an endless scroll of delightful cat pictures that will warm your heart and make you feel like you've just been gently headbutted by joy.

We're not supposed to have a favorite kind of cat here at the I Can Has Cheezburger offices…. but we do. We love all cats, but we love black cats the most. They are so sleek and shiny, and they are about as cuddly as you can get from a cat. In fact, our black cat literally won't leave us alone. They must be touching us at all times when we are home, and though some people may find it annoying, we think it's purrfectly sweet. 

Not only are they super cuddly, but black cats probably can compete with orange cats for silliest purrsonalities. Oranges definitely take the gold medal when it comes to cat craziness, but black cats are a close second. They make the funniest faces and we often catch them in the derpiest shenanigans! We collected some hissterical black cats being legendary little weirdos below, to prove our point.
