These creatures are nature’s little goofs and weirdos with some of the biggest mysteries known to hoomans—cat logic. It has become a meme in itself, inspiring an infinite flow of cat posts surfing around on the world wide web, making us crack up on the way.

And a smart cat can find many other ways to wake a hooman! A plug won't stop him

LOL, reminds me of the time I was visiting a friend, she went into her kitchen which if standing at her sink, one could see down the hall into her bedroom. Her eyes got huge and she started to whisper in a frantic voice that someone else was in the house. I did not take her seriously, but got up to look down the hall only to see the light going on and off. I looked at her, told her to stay where she was, I would check it out. I carefully snd quietly walked down the hall a did a quick peek around the door. I told her it was safe and to come look. She was still really freaked out but made her way to where I was standing, she peeked around the door and burst out laughing. The cat had figured out the new touch on/off base of the lamp and was just entertaining itself. We still laugh about it.

I basically make about $6,000-$8,000 a month online. It’s enough to comfortably replace my old jobs income, especially considering I only work about 10-13 hours a week from home. I was amazed how easy it was after I tried it….. ===))> 𝐖­𝐰­𝐰.𝐅­𝐮­𝐥­𝐰­𝐨­𝐫­𝐤.𝐂­𝐨­𝐦

I have a furry b*stard who also does that! I'm beyond happy to know I'm not alone 🙂

Stupid cats make better pets than smart ones. My two cats are as very sweet but have the IQ of a pair of shoes, and I consider myself to be extremely fortunate in my pets.

Same with dogs. An intelligent dog is work. And you'd better be ready to put the work in.

That is adorable! Leave him some dryfood in a bowl so he can snack on it. My cat always has dry food in her bowl! She self-monitors herself!

I just don’t get it that people say my cat wakes me up to feed him or her. Why don’t people just leave food 24/7? Mine eats whenever she prefer. And she is slim not overweight. I have an adopted cat from the street now who eat everything you leave in seconds. I didn’t mind and after a few days he knew there is always food and since then he eats whenever he prefer and not too much.

Cats are smart. I have no doubt this is true since mine stands on the furniture and presses the dimmer switch to turn it on and turns it up to full sunlight at 0300.

Cats are adorable smart and evil! It's been over a year but I still get nervous leaving a glass of water or a pill bottle on my nightstand. Nothing worse than a 3am splash!

To find out more about this miscellaneous subreddit for feline aficionados, Bored Panda reached out to the moderator team behind r/MEOW_IRL. They told us that this subreddit was created by popular redditor u/AttackTheMoon in 2015. “It was created as a cat version of r/me_irl back when both subreddits were small,” they added.

Today, the subreddit gets about 30 posts a day, so the community is quite active. And how couldn’t it be, with so many funny cat posts being shared here on a daily basis? But what is it exactly about cats that makes them almost universally funny? Well, the moderators believe that it has to do with their faces, that are “capable of a lot of expression, and they line up with the expressions we make when we feel the same way.”

Moreover, “you can say a lot with just big eyes.” Another reason for how they conquered the internet, according to the moderators, comes down to the fact that “cats are also never acting, so pictures of them also communicate something that is genuinely felt.”

Funny cats rule the internet and there are no questions asked. They never fail to crack us up, and hey, who doesn’t appreciate a good cat pic, meme or pun? So cats take the biggest part of the internet’s cake, and no dogs, you may wonder? Well, dogs may be trying just a little too hard.

You see, the endearing appeal of felines is that they’re fundamentally unpredictable, very jumpy, often goofy and have these weird instinct-driven behaviors. Moreover, it’s no secret that cat owners around the world enjoy photographing and taking videos of their little friends, making some of the most watched content on the internet. No wonder that ThoughtCatalog has described cats as the "unofficial mascot of the internet"—it really lives up to its name.

Meanwhile, the viral expert Matt Smith, co-founder of the Viral Factory, has another interesting theory that could be an answer to the internet's obsession with all things cats. He believes it is partly because cats are so acrobatic: “Properly nourished cats and kittens love to jump and play around, and so, on a basic level, they are very entertaining to watch. They climb and balance and perform amazing feats. We are mesmerized by their agility.”

Combining their natural acrobatics (jumping through the room in the middle of night like Space X’s rocket, anyone?!) with boldness and fun-loving nature, cats are just hard to look away from. While investigating their environment, there’s a great chance they will come up with something that will make us all crack up laughing.

Accurate. My partner keeps saying we need a bigger bed. Our pets (small dog and cat) sprawl out and take at least half the bed themselves. We just need to retake square footage from the floofs.

I love that there was already a "catoncampus" account so they had to make "catoncampus1"

My cat used to yank shower hose in hopes something will come out, so I would usually turn a little bit water to drip for her. I miss her.

Love the picture ***I interrupt this comment for a brief public service announcement (I am guessing the string piece is meant to be a lasso, but please remove all string from the cats reach. I worked in a veterinary hospital for a bit and swallowing string can cause serious internal issues which can lead to death or expensive surgery). Ok, back to the regularly scheduled program.

Cat: "If you're going to do this, hooman, couldn't you at least have chosen the far superior animated version as a background?"
