21 Things For When You Like Cats More Than Humans
There aren’t too many things in the world that are as adorable as cats. They’re fuzzy, lovable, and pretty much have the IDGAF look down pat. That is why they’re the most perfect little creatures, and it's also why cat themed gifts are the best themed gifts. People of the internet, I bring to you the ultimate gift guide for cat lovers.
I don’t know about you, but I have a good amount of friends who are bonafide cat ladies. It’s a phenomenon that’s unexplainable. Some friends tell me it’s because they’re just cute, while others credit their low-maintenance lifestyle. Cat videos are without a doubt the most popular videos to watch. And now, stores are capitalizing on the cat lady craze by making home decor with little cat ears, clothes with adorable faces and even jewelry showing off the love for our felines. While I may not personally identify with the full-on cat lady persona, I will never not crack a smile every time I watch an adorable cat video.
