‘He thinks he owns all beds in the house’: Cute collection of cozy cats controlling the beds of the I Can Has Cheezburger pawrents with a sweet sprawl

Ah, yes. The cozy bed you want to get into after a hard day. Especially in this chilly weather, when the rain pours outside, when the wind is howling, when the crisp air whispers “Go inside the blankets, it will feel amazing”. But when you’re just about to enter the soft and cozy space on your bed, you realise it’s already taken by the floofy feline master of your house, your cat overlord, who owns everything at home since you adopted them. And you have nothing to do about it because, somehow, a cat on the bed means you have no space left. Cats just defy the laws of physics like that. The online cat community of I Can Has Cheezburger experiences that same scenario, as all cat pawrents do. We asked them to not only tell us, but show us their cats sprawled out on their cozy spots their beds. Well, not “their’s”, their human’s. But it’s now theirs, no doubt about it. Every cat pawrents knows that sharing is caring and we care about our cats. So we share everything. Our cats will take it anyway, whether we shared it or not. So if you can’t beat them (in their own feline specialty), and you can’t join them (on the bed, that’s now their), just take a picture.

Orange kitten gets adopted by cat mom whose 9-year-old kitty crossed the rainbow bridge, she promptly returns to adopt his bonded brother to keep her feline family purrfectly whole

It sounds purrfectly counterintuitive. Adopt another kitten? Why would we willingly bring a second possessed creature into our homes when we already can’t control one of them? But logic isn’t always “right”, especially when it comes to our feline friends. If you have two kittens, they play with each other, learn from each other, and feel safe together. Cats are very sensitive to change, even kittens! Bringing any cat into a new home, no matter the age, is stressful for them, so if they have a buddy, they’re bound to get through it quicker and more healthily. That brings us to our kittens below. The cat mom who adopted them only adopted one at first. She lost her 9-year-old cat to liver failure and decided it was time to bring more feline energy back into her life. So she went and adopted half of a pair of bonded brothers. But when she got home, she felt guilty about leaving the other one behind. Knowing that sometimes two is better than one, she went back and adopted his brother also. Now their feline family is purrfectly whole, pawsitively fluffy, and 100% orange. We can’t imagine a better family than that.

‘I guess I have a cat now’: Cute kitten abandoned at dog rescue center, employee agrees to “only foster” but falls in love and adopts the baby after one night

This is exactly why we don’t foster cats because we will 100% get attached to them, fall in love, and end up with 400 cats in our house. Especially if the foster is a kitten. We simply can’t resist their purrfect pull, their gross (as in large) gravitation, their luscious love! When the time is right for us to get a new cat, we put a box outside and wait for the Cat Distribution System to deliver one to us. We’ll leave fostering to the people with stronger hearts and wills than we. But, if a tiny orange kitten were to show up at our workplace, who are we to say no to this chance occurrence of feline fate? That’s what happened below, although it did show up at the opposite rescue center! Upon being found at a dog rescue center (only an orange would show up at a dog shelter and not a cat one), one employee offered to foster the cute kitty for a night or two until they found an alternative solution. They lasted longer than we would have, and after one night, they caved and decided to adopt the fuzzy feline for themselves. The ginger, now named ‘Ziggy’, gets along purrfectly with her pups and is living his very best happily ever after. See more of Ziggy below!.
