Cats are pretty polarizing creatures—either you love them or... there's something wrong with you. And Xibang, a cartoonist from Singapore, definitely belongs to the first category.

Even though the man doesn't have a cat of his own, he has gotten to know enough of these adorable animals over his life to know what they are like on a day to day basis. In fact, Xibang even uses them as characters for many of his comics! Take a look at some of his strips below.

"I've been doodling since I was a kid, and I'm largely influenced by manga and cartoon art that I grew up with," Xibang told Bored Panda. "I'm self-taught, which explains my obvious lack of artistic skill."

Xibang sure is humble but you have got to admit that even though his clean style looks simple, his comics are anything but inferior. Whether we're talking about playing, snuggling, or sleeping, Xibang can portray every vital part of the human-cat relationship.

"I've been making silly jokes for the Internet since a decade ago, but my comics only really took off when I drew the 'Death and the Dog' comic. I try to be positive and/or funny [but] I often draw stuff about how short and important life is [too] because when you have a kid, you start thinking about that kind of thing. A lot. So you get a bit of everything in my comics."

It’s true. That little touch of their paw on your arm, that little face looking up at you and reading your expression with uncanny accuracy. Once they see you need cheering up, they start clowning and doing the silliest things they can think of doing p, t9 get you smiling and laughing. Then the snuggling and cuddling with their soft fur and warm little purring bodies starts. It all only takes a few seconds to a minute. And then you’re happy again, and have totally forgotten what made you sad in the first place.

I feel like I won´t feel anything after I pet this. #RIP to the person that pets it!

Why is this sooo true?!?! This is why I don't buy or use any expensive drawing materials, I often don't even know how to use it.

When a cat lies on it's back, that's an invitation to another cat to play fight. Dog people mistake it for a display of submission because that's what it means in dog body language.
