Cool Stuff

Tiny but mighty, smol cats have clawed their way into our hearts and taken over our timelines. These pint-sized purr machines fit in mugs, loaf in shoes, and peek out of hoodie pockets like they own the place. There's just something hilarious about a cat that's half the size and twice the sass.

Smol cats bring full-sized attitudes in fun-sized bodies. One minute they're dozing off like innocent lil beans, the next they're demanding snacks with the fury of a lion. Whether they're glaring from inside a sock or staging a nap protest because breakfast was five minutes late, they know exactly how to steal the show.

Their smolness makes everything more dramatic. A stare becomes a full-blown judgment session. A stretch is suddenly the most adorable event of the day. And don't even get us started on the squeaky mews. 

From plotting your downfall from a laundry basket to curling up in the tiniest spaces imaginable, smol cats prove that the fiercest things often come in the fluffiest, tiniest packages. They may be small, but they make a big impression, one loaf at a time.

It sounds like this kind-hearted cat lover was hoping to give a sweet stray a furever home, but the vet had other plans. After spotting a kitty with a collar hanging around and scavenging, they did the responsible thing. Offered shelter (a cozy box on their roof!) and tried to locate her family with a paper collar. When no one responded, they brought her to the vet to check for a microchip, only to be told the owners had moved away. Unfortunately, rather than letting this caring human adopt the cat on the spot, the vet insisted she go to the RSPCA. Now this would-be cat parent is left feeling like they were cat-burgled by bureaucracy.

It's truly frustrating when you try to do right by a feline friend and end up tangled in red tape. The good news? The RSPCA will care for the kitty, and there may be a chance to apply to adopt her officially. Fingers crossed this devoted human and their rooftop companion can be reunited, because this sounds like a purrfect match that deserves a happy ending.

Being pawrent to a cat child has its ups and downs. Sometimes it can be the most fulfilling thing you have done with your life as your cat child chooses you for their afternoon nap spot. And other times it can feel as though you have invited the spawn of Satan into your home, and they are about to summon the entirety of the underworld to demolish your home.

But one thing that is true in both cases is that we are talking about a bunch of fluffy feline freeloaders who have not, and will not, pay a dime for the roof that they live under, nor the food that they enjoy hoovering up. And that most certainly puts an interesting spin on both sides of the spectrum. However, the problem, much like with hooman children, is that you cannot return them, you are stuck with what you have. And worse still with cat children is that they will never change who they are, especially if they are going to get their food anyway. 

Adopting a cat is a big responsibility, and beyond that, it is a life-long responsibility. For the entire length of the cat's life, the cat is going to depend on you, and it is your job to take care of it, even when things get hard, even when it might be inconvenient, even when you have a baby and suddenly your time is taken up by that. You cannot just abandon your cat. And that is exactly what the people in this story did. 

This couple can claim all they want that they simply turned their indoor cat into an indoor-outdoor one, but the way that they are treating it points much more toward abandonment. An indoor-outdoor cat cannot be so emaciated that it looks sick. It cannot be that a neighbor rescues your cat, thinking that it's a stray one. It is your responsibility to take care of the cat, and if you can't, then the last thing you should do is throw it outside to fend for itself.

Mondays hit hard. They stomp like a lion who didn't get his morning coffee and roar in your face while you're still trying to open your eyes. But fear not, fellow hoomans. When the Monday mellows are this big, you need equally big feline energy to fight back. That's right - we're talking lions, tigers, leopards, cheetahs, pumas, even those gloriously unhinged Pallas cats. Massive mood-boosters ready to help you claw your way through the chaos.

These aren't your average house cats politely knocking mugs off counters in a 3 AM zoomies fit. No, these are full-sized floofy predators who embody every Big Monday Feeling™ you've ever had. Overdramatic or overworked? Always. Extremely photogenic while doing absolutely nothing productive? 100% big cat behavior.

So if your soul is dragging itself into the week like a sleepy lion in a sunbeam, let these feline-ly funny memes remind you that sometimes, the best way to cope is to embrace the chaos, show your teeth (figuratively), and take a nap in protest. Let the big cats show you how it's done.

We remember, from the time that we were kids, seeing videos on the TV of big cats doing all kinds of cool tricks in circuses. We remember the audiences cheering. We remember thinking that it was amazing. And then, we grew up, and we realized what it took for cats to do stuff like that. Nowadays, it's hard for us to look at things like this, despite the fact that we know it's still going on in some places in the world. We want to look away, but we don't think that we should. It's good to remember, and more than that, it's good to celebrate the times that big cats like that get rescued. 

Whether it's a lion cub getting rescued and being given a chance at a new life, if it's mountain lions getting rescued and learning to enjoy life again, or if it's a tiger getting rescued, like the one that you will be meeting today, and being given a chance, for the first time in her life, to taste freedom. And like the comments under the video say: "Such a beautiful animal. And seeing her playing like a kitten is heartwarming. I hope she lives the rest of her life in comfort and peace."
