When you see your adorable cat every day, you probably don't notice how much it has changed throughout the years. As family pets and members, they grow and age together with us. And though there's nothing cuter than baby animals, they all sooner or later grow up.
Recently, we asked you to share then and now pictures of your dog growing up. Now, it's time for cute kittens turning into tigers! Share your most adorable fluffy kitten to fully grown cat transformations. The best cat photos will be later featured in a separate post that will be shared on our Facebook pages, so give your kitten the chance to become Internet-famous.

awww.. those paws and those mustache and those brows... your kitty is kawaii <3 :3
I always drink my water from a refillable sports bottle so my cats won't "share"
My girls used to do that when I ironed - couldn't wait for the water and it was from the tap!
Big & Ginge - Sadly Big Is No Longer With Us
So sorry that Big isn't with you anymore. I'm sure Ginge misses him.
I Couldn't Resist Adding Another One Of Pussy. Cuddles Sure Have Changed In 7 Years!
7 years! Not 10! I wish I could edit the submission.
He sure is. We could never have known, mum was a tiny girl.
Load More Replies...He still kneads my hubby and myself, especially with me. I like wearing dressing gowns at home and they're great padding so he can just go for it. I'm the only one who he kneads with all fours, it makes me feel quite special.
Load More Replies...this is just so cute. it reminds me of the tomcat my boyfriend had when we met, almost 2 years ago... but he's no longer with us. but we have now a black cat and a white tomcat. and we are waiting for the babies.... 50 shades of grey, maybe? hihi
Thanks Miruna. Who knows what mix you'll get out of those two? I'm sure they'll be cute kittens though!
Load More Replies...Oml I want to have one like you!!! You are such a gorgeous big thing aren't you, d'aaaaw! What breed could that be? Oh would you just look!!
His Mum is a beautiful breed but I don't know what type. Dad is almost certainly feral.
Load More Replies...Half feral half something beautiful, small and and stripey, I don't know his Mums breed but she was beautiful.
Load More Replies...He does love his food. But we have it from the vet, he's not overweight just big!
Load More Replies...He's my husband. He's half German half Japanese.

Is it really the same cat? Does the eyecolour change sometimes? (I'm seriously aksing :) )
Yes, kittens, like human babies, have blue eyes when they are born.

Curious Little Girl To Giant Sleepy Fluff Ball. And She's Still Growing!
i love the way cats cover their faces with their paws when they sleep. it looks so sweet.
Awww she looks exactly like how Pam my cat may have looked as a kitten. Pam came to my doorstep, malnourished at about age 1 when neighbours up the road abandoned her. She is now healthy and looks just like your cat does :) :) similar face and fluffy and sleeps like that too :D

As a Narcoleptic, I can firmly agree that this cat of yours has the right idea.
SPANISH CAT!! (this isn't meant as an offense, I'm Spanish myself!)
Pussy. From Tiny Fluff Ball To Handsome 7 Kilo Cat
This is great. Also, he was so clumsy when he was a kitten, he left his Mum a bit too early and didn't have another cat to teach him to do things. Even washing himself he was clumsy with! Now he's very graceful (mostly.)
Load More Replies...Freya - Then And Now
it's because of the breed, I think she's an oriental cat
Load More Replies...Is she named after Freya from FF9? Because if she is, that's great and indeed her face reminds of Freya from FF9.
So we now have a generation that thinks "FF9" when they see the name Freya.
Load More Replies...She looks like a beautiful kitty that came to the shelter where I volunteer. He was so sweet and got adopted pretty quickly. I'm sure Freya has the same temperament. She's lovely.

Thanks. There is no hope left, we stopped treatment and are letting nature take it's course.
Load More Replies...I'm sorry, I hope she won't suffer. Make the most of the time you have left with her :(
Thanks. There will be no suffering. As soon as she stops eating, the vet will put her to sleep. Right now it's just nice to have som time with her.
Load More Replies...My Amberleigh only lived 6 yrs because of her kidneys too..so sorry!
So sorry to hear that. Cats have so delicate kidneys. Iskelil just turned 2. Far to young to die...

The nostalgic feeling of watching a tiny kitten transform into a magnificent cat is something many pet owners cherish. Capturing these moments not only preserves memories but also highlights the unique personality of our pets.
For a dose of nostalgia, you can explore more touching images of these growth stages and appreciate the beauty of feline development.
I made a photo series on here about my cat. He's the tiny fluff ball grown into a 7kilo handsome cat, Pussy. If you click on my pic on the right hand side and go to my profile you can see more photos of him!
Load More Replies...The correct statement is: Most of the cats are older than I.
Load More Replies...Well, after watching & liking every pic I should now cuddle my kitty Sir Kat Harington !!! =^-^= Thank you all for these cute pictures!!
We actually had two new kitties at home, we wanted to name them Yin and Yang but the white one had some spots of black (not entirely white) so we just named them Dean and Sam hahaha not so good with names, sorry. Anyway, the pictures in the list are oozing with cuteness and very inspiring. Imagine cats growing old with their hoomans, that's just precious <3
I would totally send pictures of my cat! But I've only had her for a year and she was rescued as an adult
I kinda want to add a photo of my cat, Snowy, when we first adopted her about 4.5 years ago, but I don't know if I have any..
