If at some time in the future the internet is inexplicably switched off, the one commonality between the first memes, contemporary content and, presumably, the future will be cats. After all, we found them on Egyptian murals, so your grandkids Facebook page is not that much of a stretch. 

The “Memes I wish I could tag my cat in” Facebook page is dedicated to hilarious posts about having a feline friend. We got in touch with Trev Lewis, one of the founders of the page to learn more. So get comfortable as you scroll through, upvote your favorite posts and be sure to share your own thoughts in the comments section below.

And if you can't get a nice photo of a black cat, you're a bad photographer. Heard that sometimes they don't get adopted of this, *needs them gram's pictures* 🤦‍♂️😠

Every idiot who blames animals for the colour of their fur should be culled or imprisoned for life for the improvement of mankind & the safety of catkind.

My black cat was evil. He'd climb inside packages with loose Styrofoam beads, which would cling to his fur, then he'd jump into my bed or comfy chair or run pell-mell through the house releasing those beads everywhere.

I'm 99% sure this myth was made by a sorceress who just had an affinity for black cats and wanted them all to herself, a sentiment I 100% relate to

I just watched a video on cat personalities in relation to their fur color/patterns, and they said researchers found that black cats were actually sweet and affectionate

I have a black cat and her name is Four, you can probably guess why she is called that. But, she is not evil. But, unfortunately, she is not much smarter than a rock. Still, I love her.

Ours was cool and owned our dogs even though she was only 8 lbs and they were 100+ lbs. We lost her at 15.

Black cats are the best! Please adopt them! They spent more time in shelters than boring colored cats...

Bored Panda got in touch with Trev Lewis, a broadcaster and comedian who is also one of the founders of “Memes I wish I could tag my cat in” and he was kind enough to answer some of our questions. Firstly, we were curious to hear his thoughts on why the group is as large as it is, currently just shy of a million followers. 

“I think the page's main draw for our group is a passion for debating the different schools of thought within modern economic theory. Kidding! The main draw is cats, of course.” You can also find his previous interview with Bored Panda from last year.

“People will always love cats and anything that incorporates cat content. It's a fun place to spend some free time, as opposed to more-serious corners of the internet. Cat memes endure because they make the perfect indoor pet, and those of us (myself included) who are chronically online don't like to go outside much. So this particular crowd is wired to appreciate and own cats.”

Looks like he’s on a really disappointing blind date.

Naturally, we also wanted to know why he thought cat memes in particular were so enduring and ever-present. “Compared to other animals and their respective memes, cats simply have more of a meme-worthy personality. They are fiercely independent at times, and very antagonistic.” he shared.

“One could say they are the animal version of American comedian Larry David, who just wrapped up his long-running sitcom Curb Your Enthusiasm. Something about disposing of social norms and acceptable behavior, and choosing to forge your own grumpy path really lends itself to comedy, and that's something both Larry David and cats have successfully tapped into. If any animal on earth could learn the art of standup comedy, I think it would definitely be cats.”

Show me the cat or it will reflect badly on your next job review.

Trev shared some parting thoughts. “The only other thing I will add is that my family's oldest cat, Nugget, is currently in ill-health. It's always difficult to lose a pet, and I think this group has helped me, and hopefully many others, have some bright cat-related moments in difficult times. That is also part of its huge appeal.” You can find more of his work on his website.

It doesn’t matter that a heavy weight is on your chest and you can’t breathe properly, you don’t want to move for fear of disturbing them.
