Jokes and cats are the real fuel of the internet. Think of what a bland place it’d be if we didn’t get a daily fix of funny cat jokes gift-wrapped in mysterious feline logic. Think of how many quips wouldn’t have even been born without these pictures. Grumpy Cat, Cat Jam, Smudge the Cat, Coughing Cat… anyone?!
So when combining these two of people’s favorite things, you get the most powerful cattitude jokes that explain all that words cannot explain. Like all those weird, goofy, and plain ‘seriously?!’ feline behaviors.
Why do cats eat like they've got 2 seconds to finish the bowl, only to puke in the middle of the carpet a minute later? And how do they decide that wreaking havoc on the house at 3 am is an excellent idea? Those cucumbers, what’s up with them?
We may never find the answers, but with the help of cat-approved visual language, we at least can get a glimpse into the weird and wonderful world of felines. It’s where everything you think you know is wrong, and everything you know to be wrong is also wrong. Funny cat jokes for adults compiled by Bored Panda, the stage is yours.

It’s no secret that cats sometimes, or rather most often, do things that make no sense to humans. To help decipher the internet-famous and genuinely odd feline behavior so often used for funny cat jokes and images, Bored Panda reached out to Molly DeVoss, a certified feline training and behavior specialist who runs Cat Behavior Solutions agency.
Molly said that each cat’s motivation to act as if they’re aiming to turn into funny cat jokes is a very individual thing. “Some cats do silly things to get our attention; we run and get our cameras, cooing and paying attention to them.” This attention that we shower our felines with is precisely what reinforces their seemingly odd behavior.
Meanwhile, “other cats are bored and are trying to find outlets for pent-up energy,” Molly said. Being both prey and predator animals, most cats’ instincts are still pretty powerful. As your house is their new jungle, you see the behavior that makes them jumpy, goofy, silly, yet absolutely adorable.
In fact, this precise feature that we don’t really know what to expect from them is what makes our felines the perfect material for cat funny jokes. “Whatever the motivation for the strange behaviors, it’s always good to pay attention to your cat and tell it how much you appreciate the laugh,” Molly concluded.
However, even if the odd behavior of our beloved felines can be explained, that does not mean that these funny cat jokes on the list are less hilarious! So, why not scroll through the rest of them and have a hearty laugh?
"I...I thought you would just like a hug." "NO, souvenirs don't squish me."

One time my grandparents had her for a couple of weeks when I was abroad. When I came to pick her up she LITTERALLY jumped up in my arms and folded her little paws around my neck :')
I had two cats who would sit on a brick wall near the front door waiting for me to get home. They knew my usual time and if I was late they would sit there next to each other with eyes on the front gate and just wait. When I got home they would both meow, one would stand up on his back legs and climb onto my shoulder, the other would roll on his side for a quick belly rub and then be picked up. I miss that warm welcome home. Cats do have feelings, a lot of them.

always remember to wash your hands in tuna juice if you want an excited reunion.
When I go upstairs just to brush my teeth 3 min., my dog welcomes me back downstairs like I'm back from the war :p
I can't get up to go to the bathroom without 3 dogs leaping & celebrating in circles around me!

no thanks no hands I give you snuggles you dont touch me
I came home after a month away and my cats didn't recognize me. It wasn't until I got close enough for them to smell me that they realized who I was. My girl still won't snuggle with me. 😟
We left for 2 weeks. Thought the cars would be distraught. They greeted us with “Oh. You were gone??”
So you think I'm going to come up to you after you have be gone soooooooooo long I'm sorry NO WAY DAD maybe tomorrow or the next day but not today at all ;=]]
Cats are angry, that you left them. But they don't keep that attitude for long, cause they love you :3
mine got all excited for about 5 minutes, realized I'd left them with my roommates for 3 months while I was in Guam and gave me the cold shoulder for a week...cats...
Yeah, that would be me. My husband too, though he’ll never admit it. It’s why we now have four cats and a dog—-all rescues, out of a barn, off the street, dumped in our yard or the neighbor’s (when she was out of town for an extended period and my husband was doing a regular check on her house for her). Yeah. Big softies.
Ruler: "Paint me a powerful warrior, taming a fearsome lion in scale armour!" Artist: "Say no more, my lord!"
I do that all the time, not because of spiders but because she meows non stop as she wants to sniff the ceiling for some reason
The really impressive part is that he did it with a hammer and chisel.
My kitten likes to play fetch with her little toy mouse. I throw it and she brings it back to me. I don't see this ending well.
Relatable. Mine literally meows sooo freaking loud and then runs away and you don’t see him for a day. 🤦♀️
That's a face that says, "I'm allergic to cats and these furballs know it."
Yes, they have a schedule. They've just been cleverer than us in not abiding to it.
Mine runs away when i even try this during day, but in the morning and the evening comes looking for me...
A family Christmas (a few years ago). Everyone is sat chatting about their respective dogs, and my daughter said "what are the names or our two cats?" Stoney silence from the family. We've had them 15 years!
