This Group Is Dedicated To Posting Pics Of Cats’ “Murder Mittens” And Here Are Their 50 Best Pics (New Pics)
There’s just something about cats that humans can’t seem to get enough of. Whether it’s pics of them screaming, before and after photos of rescued cats or memes of cute kitties, we devour cat content like felines devour canned tuna. (Or salmon or live mice... Whatever cats like to eat!) We even find the most dangerous features of cats irresistible: their sharp claws.
We’ve gone through the “Murder Mittens” subreddit to find the most adorable, albeit slightly terrifying, photos of kitties showing off their handheld (paw-held?) weapons, so you too can appreciate the beauty and danger of these amazing creatures. If you have ever had a cat, you know how much damage these little paws can cause, but you also know how cute and cuddly these cats can be! So be sure to upvote all of your favorite photos, and then let us know in the comments if you have ever had a kitten with adorably murderous mittens. Keep reading to also find an interview with Lisa Stemcosky, a Certified Cat Behavior Consultant and the owner of PawLitically Correct. Then if you still haven’t had enough of these cute pics, you can check out Bored Panda’s last article featuring the same subreddit right here.

I was going to cooment that I was glad there were so many black cats here: Apparently because of superstious b******t (in the 21st century!), black cats are the most abandonded/dumped and abused variety of cats. Our beastie, Sulo, our boy Alex's Vincent van Goth and his girlfriend's Apollo are all black beauties! <3
