When you're having a paw-sitively awful day, nothing can cheer you up quite like scrolling through a list of cat jokes and photos that showcase all the hilarious shenanigans these furballs get into. Bored Panda has compiled the following collection of funny tweets about cats with photos that even dog people won't be able to help but to wag their tail at.

And this list doesn't just include cat hijinx, but some pretty hilarious stories of their owners. From burying your cute cat that isn't actually dead to knitting them sweaters and just general over-the-top cat behaviors. These are the best tweets sure to delight everyone on the internet who appreciates silly cats. Don't forget to upvote your favs!

Domestic cats love to play, this applies particularly to kittens who enjoy chasing toys and play fighting. Play fighting between kittens is more than just entertainment and can be a way for them to practice and learn skills for hunting and fighting.

Cats and humans have been closely associated for nearly 10000 years. The Ancient Egyptians held cats in the highest regard, and there were severe penalties for injuring or killing a cat. They even worshipped a Cat Goddess whom they called Bastet. 

Most people refer to all felines as cats or kittens depending on the age - but this is not the proper terminology. A group of cats is called a clowder, a male cat is called a tom, a female cat is called a molly or queen while young cats are called kittens.

You might not think of your silly cat as a vicious predator but felines are natural hunters. When they walk, their back paws step in almost exactly the same place as the front paws do in order to minimize noise and limit visible tracks. Cats have powerful night vision, excellent hearing and a powerful sense of smell.

We have come to associate purring with contentment when it comes to cats, but turns out just because a cat is purring doesn’t mean the cat is happy. Cats usually make this sound when they’re content, but they also purr when they’re sick, stressed, hurt, or giving birth. So the next time your funny cat purrs they may be trying to tell you something.

Please neuter (not nurture, thank you Eunice) your cats. :( (Not saying that this isn't funny, though.)

"Batman? Me?! No, no, of course I'm not Batman. Pfft. I couldn't possibly be the Dark Knight. Don't be ridiculous! Hehe. I'm, err, Catwoman. Yes, that's it."

My friend thought his cat had been killed by a car, watched her die. You can imagine his reaction, when his actual cat came bounding into the garden!!

I would hope to be able to recognize my own cats... but haven’t had to really challenge that with lookalikes.

We had two identical black cats once and didn't know it until they died a week apart.

I agree. When I worked at the Palm Desert let hospital in California I was taught that when a cat goes off to die it's because they want it to be hidden from predators a d because they want it to be very relaxing calm and quiet. And no they do not know that they're dying, they just want to alone to be at peace .
