Twitter Has The Most PURRfect Jokes In Response To The ‘Cats’ Trailer

Well, well, well-icle. The furry and fantastical Cats trailer arrived on Thursday, July 18, and the memes and tweets about the Cats trailer promptly followed. Because of course they did. Come on, we are talking about a preview for a movie that has famous human beings like Jennifer Hudson, Judi Dench, Taylor Swift, Idris Elba, James Corden, Rebel Wilson, Ian McKellen, and Jason Derulo in cat costumes singing songs from a famous Broadway musical. Oh, and the famous human beings are the size of actual cats. Oh, and did I forget to mention the part where special effects were, as director Tom Hooper said in the behind-the-scenes feature that was released earlier this week, used to give all of the famous human beings, "the most perfect covering of fur"?

Needless to say, the first trailer for Cats was always going to be catnip for Twitter. Cats will slink into theaters on Dec. 20, and when it arrives, there will surely be even more memes. Meme-ory, all alone in the meme-light. We can smile at the release day. It will be beautiful then.

But first, let us watch the trailer that launched a meow-sand, er, thousand tweets.

Purr-fection.
