Happy purr-thday!
Good things come in small packages…that are wrapped and unwrapped. Yep, this kitty may have made a mess, but that doesn’t bother us one bit!
I’m so fur-tunate to have you in my life
The snuggle is real! Is there a person on the planet who wouldn’t love having this adorable little guy as a foot warmer?
Just kitten around!
We’re not sure which animal joke we’re laughing about here, but it looks like a good one! That giant smile is a whole mood.
It’s im-paws-ible to love you more
Seeing the love between human children and fur children is one of the best treats on Earth, and it looks like these two are best friends.
Let me tell you a tail
Once upon a time, there was a meowy magical cat in a far-off kingdom. He loved looking at cat photos and reading up on catnip farming…
You’re hiss-terical!
You always tell the best knock-knock jokes, Mom! But seriously, did you know cats have all the necessary facial muscles to produce real smiles?
Do you want to get meow-ried?
These two have the kind of sweet, committed love that species of all kinds can cherish and respect.
Well, this is claw-ful
Poor kitty! Showers are definitely not feline-friendly. The only solution for this sad kitty is to cheer up with some hilarious cat memes.
Best furr-iends forever
There’s no feeling lonely or blue with a cat around. They’re always there for furr-iendship and cuddles.
So furr-tunate to have each other
There’s nothing sweeter than some interspecies mingling, and this cat and dog duo is no exception. Here are another 20 animal friendships that will fill your heart with happiness.
Paw-don me, is this seat taken?
We love how cats make themselves comfortable just about anywhere—and everywhere! At least there’s plenty of room for a human friend on that chair.
A cat-astrophe in progress
We hope this little guy lands on his legs because this daredevil stunt looks terrifying.
Hey, you look fur-miliar
I’ve seen you around here, haven’t I? Or did you just show up to take some cute cat pictures of me?
Feline sad
Can someone get me out of here? I’m ready to tackle balls of yarn again. I won’t pee on the rug again—I promise!
Totally litter-ate
What, you didn’t know that cats love books? While they probably can’t read, they do encourage cozy reading habits, and that’s good enough for us.
Purr-ple is a cat’s favorite color
Well, obviously it would be. None of the other colors involve cat sounds.
Paw-jama party
Throw on your snuggliest paw-jamas and let’s get this cat-nap party started! It’ll be purr-fect, and ripe with opportunities for clever cat puns and cute cat pictures.
Paw enforcement at your service
Someone needs to call the sheriff because this furry crime fighter just stole our hearts!
A meow-tini for me?
If meow-tini cat photos don’t make you smile, we don’t know what will, because this furball looks like the best drinking buddy of all time.
Pretty paw-some!
It’s pretty impressive when a cat tries to stand on two legs. This one definitely deserves the treat. By the way, did you know that you can train your cat to do these five life-changing things?
Can you paw-lease send me on a vacation?
C’mon, I’m ready to go! Just stick a shipping label on me and send me off to Grandma’s! Or at least get me some new treats. Maybe that’s easier?
Wait a meow-ment—are you taking my picture?
The best cat pictures are the ones they don’t see coming! This fluff ball’s look of surprise is priceless.
Another bath? Fur-real?
Cute cat pictures can even include scowls, like the one on this fairly annoyed feline. We get it: Baths are definitely not the cat’s meow. In case you were wondering, this is why cats hate water.
Speaking of baths…
This guy is pretty upset about his spa session and would definitely like to speak with a manager.
I love you the meowst
Every pot has a cover, and these two seem purr-fectly joined in their afternoon cuddles.
Take meowt for dinner, please
She’ll have the tuna carpaccio to start, and a salmon filet for her main, thanks. Please don’t overcook them—medium-rare preferred.

She’s slept here be-fur
Let’s be honest with ourselves: She rules this roost, and the bed is just as much her place to sleep as anyone else’s.
I’ve got cattitude
What’s it to you? You focus on your own fish; I’ll focus on mine.
So cathletic!
The not-so-scientific truth is that cats are natural yoga-pose masters and probably owe at least a few of their lives to all their stretching.
Caturday afternoon wellness
Thought we were kidding about cats being natural yogis? We weren’t, and this furry feline looks like she’s the world’s best yoga student.
The cutest little face eh-fur
Are you feeling extra cuddly after all these cute cat pictures? If not, you will after seeing this little guy! We don’t know about you, but we’re totally ready to curl up with a cozy blanket and a sweet kitty.
Don’t be such a sourpuss!
Hey, cats are people, too. Well, not exactly, but they can get pretty angry if you’re not open to sharing your lunch. Sometimes it’s hard to tell, but here are the telltale signs you have a happy cat.
Fur-ever friendly
This odd couple is making it work, and they’re adorable. They’re obviously going to be BFFs—best friends fur-ever. Here are more adorably funny cat and dog photos you’ll instantly love.
A true glamour-puss
Why aren’t cats in wigs a whole subgenre of required children’s reading? Heck, they should be required reading for adults, too, because this is worthy of more than a few chuckles.
Is this a total faux-paw?
We hope not, because seeing a cat with a funny sketch in front of his face definitely makes us smile.

Feline fine!
So fine that a cat nap or two is in order. And if you don’t mind, this part of the sofa is reserved.
Cats off to you, snuggly one
This chunky cat seems to be making the most of a soft Persian rug and some downtime, and we can’t say we disagree with the sentiment. She does look a little surprised by the camera, though.
Time to be pam-purred
I’m ready for all the home spa products, catnip, and longer-than-usual naps. Who can I talk to about a massage upgrade?
Ready for va-cat-tion!
Where are we going? I’m up for anywhere you want to go. I just hope they have a sushi restaurant in the hotel.
Just reading the pay-purr
Extra! Extra! Read all about this ridiculous cuteness!
Here to help with important purr-chases
All of your customer-service needs can be met with furr-iendly felines, it seems. This one deserves a promotion for promoting customer spirit…or something like that.
An unbeatable op-purr-tunity
You’ll want to get in on this feline deal from the ground up because the op-purr-tunity is just too good to miss.
A purr-ito
This roll-up is what’s known as a cat purr-ito, one of the easiest cute cat pictures to recreate at home with your own feline best friend—and universally social media–worthy.
This is considered haute cat-ture
It’s fashion. Look it up, OK? And yes, this does come with coordinating shoes and a color-blocked purse.
Meowtrage of extra high levels
She’s not just going to sit there and take this food change. She wants the old, fancier stuff back in a jiffy, and she’ll be leaving a negative Yelp review when she’s done. In case you were wondering, this is the very best diet for cats, according to vets.
Such a purrty smile!
Now this is a happy cat. We can only wonder what sparked the mood. A head rub? Catching a critter? Scoring a meatball from Mom’s plate?
Pro-cat-ination is fine if it involves sleep
At least that’s the official cat position on the matter, anyway. This tiny kitten is totally playing by all the cat-nap rules and regulations.
Make mewsic
Cats are the ultimate patrons of the arts, it seems, as well as creative types themselves. This picture is pretty clear proof of that. Next, check out these funny dog photos. Trust us—you need to see them!
