Who the hell's hallucination am I in?

Many people wait for the weekends and use their entire time off to do some very important tasks.

For example, never leaving their bed is an extremely important task everyone should set time aside for during the weekends. Not only does it give you a chance to rest and gather strength for the upcoming week, but it also allows you to spend some crucial quality time with your purfect fiesty furiends.

Every time the weekend comes along, and our clingy cats refuse to let us leave the bed, we are reminded of the most important fact pet owners often forget–while we have our own lives, a job, friends, and family, our pets' entire lives revolve around us, especially for indoor cats like our own. All they know is their love for you, their pawrent, so whenever you are there with them, they simply want to soak it all up before you leave again. Sure, many cats will run the other way as soon as you give them more attention than what they asked for, but we truly don't know any cats who would willingly skip cuddle time in bed with their loving pawrents.

And, well, if that is not enough to convince you to stay a little longer in bed with them, we don't know what will.

Perhaps, adding an activity to do together could impurrove your time off. You can lie in bed, cuddle with your cats, and scroll through some feline feel-good memes, like the one below. How about that?

Sometimes the universe drops a tiny kitten right into your path.

A loud little cry coming from a pile of bushes turned into an unexpected kitten rescue. Hidden inside the greenery was a tiny three-month-old kitten calling out as loudly as he could. Once found, it didn't take long to realize this little guy wasn't shy at all. Within an hour he was already rolling around, showing his belly, and happily accepting attention and food like he'd known people his whole life.

At first it seemed pawsible that the mama cat might still be nearby. He looked healthy and well-fed, so the kitten was gently returned to the area where he was found in case she came back for him. But hours later, after returning to check, the situation looked very different. The kitten was still there, hiding inside a drainpipe, crying and now covered in ants. There was still no sign of a mother or any other cats.

That moment made the decision easy. The little guy was brought back home, where he immediately settled in and quickly started bonding with his rescuer. According to the vet, kittens around that age can sometimes be left on their own by their mothers. Still, this particular kitten seems far too friendly and affectionate to be out fending for himself.

For now, he's safe, playful, and clearly enjoying hooman company. The next step is finding the purrfect permanent home for him. Until then, he's getting plenty of care and attention and it's pretty clear he's already making himself right at home.

When you hear a kitten in need, you go running. 

You hear meowing, the meowing gets louder and louder. You hear from the same area some kids, they're laughing and their laughter mirrors the yells of the cat. There's only one thing to do: to go see what all the commotion is about. This kind person saw some kids with a little innocent, helpless orange kitten. He immediately took her, knowing the kids aren't responsible enough to help. He takes her home, and though he can't have a cat right now, and even with his aunt creating a fuss over the cat, he still manages to nurse the kitten back to health. He gave her a bath, and the two have been together since. She's been sleeping most of the time, probably recovering from all the chaos. His best friend is a vet, so he's following her educated instructions on how to care for the cat until he can find her a furrever home. He's a really good guy. 

Some people can be so cruel. When we're young, we don't have the mature mindsets we achieve as adults. Sometimes we do things we don't mean, and we're less attached to humanity. When we get older, we hopefully gain the insight to be sweet, gentle, kind, and understanding. The kids in the story obviously don't have the insight or maturity to handle seeing a helpless animal without helping it. Who knows what they did, but all we know is that the kitten was saved by this kind human. 

Cat names are all kinds of comical, but they pale in comparison to the names their pawrents actually call them. And in this collection of cute cats we expose those hissterical nicknames thanks to their pawrents.

It is quite the feline phenomenon to have a nickname in the animal kingdom. After all, most other pets do not really have nicknames, and most of the animals in the world do not even have hooman names. So for cats to have several monikers by which they are known is truly special. But what is so delightfully funny about these nicknames is that they are usually born of the cat's quirks and curiosities. For example it would not be out of place for a cat who particularly enjoys picking food scraps out of the trash to be given the nickname 'Trash Baby'.

So strap in for a whole heap of gems like that with this collection of cute cats with curious names as exposed by their pawrents. All we can say is that it is a good thing that cats are yet to master the English language…
 

Cat law is cat law, and every cat pawrent knows to obey their floofy feline overlords who rule their lives with an iron paw.

Some cats enact really weird laws in their domestic house kingdoms: Don't throw away the chewed-up single sock, it's a prized possession. Don't make loud noises when the cat naps on the couch, or else he'll bite. Give exactly three belly rubs, no more, no less. Even cat has their own crazed set of rules, and we as cat pawrents just sort of accept it. But some of these royal feline decrees are set in stone, and are always true for all cats worldwide.

One of them is "never disturb the cat's nap". The nap is sacred. The nap is pure bliss. The cat must nap uninterrupted. And that's exactly why it's so common for cat pawrents everywhere to get "stuck" when their feline friends decide to take a holy nap on their chest or lap. This one woman hilariously asked the online feline family if there's anything to do in this situation that she's in - only to be reminded that… no.

It takes a special kind of purrson to adopt a senior cat, but it wouldn't take more than a glance for anyone to see how special 'Pudge', the 18-year-old cat, was.

Adopting senior kitties is one of the hardest and most rewarding things you can do as a cat lover. It's hard because you know that you will fall in love and have your heart broken before you know it, but as Shakespeare once said, "It's better to have loved and have lost than to never have loved at all". 

The older they get, the less chance they have of getting adopted, too. For the exact reasons we said earlier, most people don't want to adopt a cat for a year or two, they want as much time with them as they can. It's totally understandable, but that also means that most senior cats end their lives alone in an animal shelter, and that's the least fair thing we can think of.

Pudge was able to escape that unfair reality. Found by happenstance online, one cat mom and her husband took one look at this 18-year-old baby and couldn't say no. He had been kept in a cage his whole life (don't even get us started), but they decided to adopt him and give him the best last months of his life. Well, two months turned into three, three turned into six, and six months turned into a year. Pudge lived. He played. He ate steak, and ice cream. 

Pudge's story makes us believe that the love and heartbreak is worth it to see how much a new beginning can change even the oldest cat's life. They deserve it, and so do you.

A cat lived to 29-years-old, which is around 135 in human years, making this feline the most cherished, celebrated, and emotionally uplifting scragglemuffin around; while cat lovers gather to ogle at this purrecious feline miracle, they only wish that their own beloved pet at home could live half as long. Perhaps it's time to whip out the Fancy Feast, the cans of pure tuna, and give your cat the infinite affection glitch of love that they absolutely deserve.

A new job came with an unexpected little coworker.

About three weeks into this hooman's new job, a tiny kitten was found in the parking lot outside the workplace. He was in pretty rough shape. Covered in fleas, looking sick, and clearly far too small to be on his own. People searched around to see if there was a mother nearby, but there was no sign of one anywhere.

This purrson didn't plan to take them home. He already had two dogs and two cats waiting at home, which is already a busy house. But the kitten seemed to have other ideas. At one point he climbed right up onto a shoulder and curled up like he had already decided where he belonged. After that, saying no became a lot harder.

The little guy needed some help to get back on his paws. A few vet visits, some medicine, and a little time spent recovering with a grandmother gave him the chance to get healthy again. Slowly but surely he started feeling better and gaining strength.

Now he's settled into his new home and doing great. He lives alongside his new furry siblings, gets plenty of attention, and enjoys the comfort of a safe place to sleep. What started as a sick little kitten in a parking lot turned into a happy cat with a full house of furiends.

When the cat distribution system gives you two cats, you know you have to take them.

Two is better than one, as they say! So one is a beautiful calico that he found first. Her name is Ginkgo, and she's 3-years-old. He was walking home from work one night and saw a kitty, he approached her, hoping she'd let him pet her. She was so small and young at the time, and the sweetest thing ever. Suddenly, a woman comes out of a house right there and just asks if he wants to adopt her! She said that the stray was abandoned with a sibling next to a nearby school. She had been feeding her but couldn't take her in, and the sibling got adopted. She even let him borrow a cat carrier to take her home! 

Then six months later, something similar happens. He was walking home and saw a cat, and he of course also tried to pet it. She didn't let him though, she was a proper feral. And again, a guy comes out of his house and asks if he wanted to adopt the cat. But this little kitty was pregnant, so he let her have her litter first. They waited 6-8 weeks, and then she had her litter, and that meant he could take a kitten, which he did. He claims this little grey cat is happy, beefy, and muscular.
