Since memes took over our social media feeds, cats have become one of the biggest online stars. And for good reason. Few things can brighten your day as fast as a funny cat photo of a silly kitty clinging to its owner. Or a grumpy tabby judging every person that walks by.
In fact, one might even say that the internet and the cute cat photos are a match made in heaven. After all, social media is mostly about entertainment, and no other animal can provide us with as many hilarious instances as the cat. Merge these curious animals with memes, and it becomes a real win-win situation for anyone seeking a bit of comedic relief in meme photos and funny cat pictures.
Luckily, the aptly titled subreddit 'Cat Memes' and its 96K members have been collecting all the funny cat photos and memes they find online. Thanks to these folks, they won't drown in the vast sea that is internet content.

Why are Cats so Funny?
Ah, the question of the lifetime, no less! Looking at these funny cat photos, you might’ve caught yourself thinking it over and over, to no avail. To ease your mind, we thought of some reasons why cats could be as funny as they are, and here they are:
Cats, unlike a lot of other animals, are very playful, and to us, them chasing toys and pouncing on shadows might seem terribly entertaining. What’s more, is that cats are incredibly curious, and as the old saying goes, “Curiosity turned a cat into a funny cat photos meme.” Or something like that. Researching the specimen further, we found that every cat has its own personality quirks. Those quirks are sometimes so hilarious that they’re the absolute perfect material for cute cat photos! And while we could go listing the reasons why felines are so oddly hilarious, we’ll mention expressiveness as our last point. From their wide range of vocalizations to their exaggerated facial expressions to something as minor as a bug in the room, cats always surprise us when we least expect it. Thankfully, of course, those surprises are usually very funny and painstakingly adorable.
So, there you are. Those are our reasons why cats are so hilarious and why they’re perfect for funny cat photos. Speaking of which, there are plenty more of these funny cat photos and memes on this list, so why not check them all out?

Surprised at how calm this little kitty is. My cat would be flailing around and yowling at the top of his lungs
I saw a video the other day of a kitten having a bath and he was so relaxed he was almost falling asleep in the water 🙂
Load More Replies...I have two calicoes that are most definitely water cats. It's insane how they sit in the kitchen sink while I do dishes and bat the water, or how my kitten watches me fill my water bottle only to attack the drain after I lift the bottle. Or, wants to sit on my stomach while I'm in my bubble tub....
Yep! There would be teeth + claws + blood at our house if we tried this. :)
We had a pond with fish in it when my first cat was little. She quickly learned to jump in and catch them. She started liking water and would insist on following us into the shower or bathtub. I'm guessing she did it in the hopes of finding more yummy fish to eat. No such luck though.
My ginger likes to hop in my shower and get soaking wet. He now has his own towel hook in the bathroom.

I just don't bother to close the door anymore. Fortunately I am the only human in my home.
My cat hears me in the bathroom and runs to the bathroom to have me lift her up onto the counter and trickle the water so she can drink from the sink. She has bowls of fresh water in two places. Sometimes she doesn't even drink - just stares at the water trickling down the sink. But the ritual is important apparently.
I had a guest in my home, so I actually pulled the door closed behind me. It was like the end of the world.
It's just so wrong. But only because we get the evil eye if we happen to watch them do the same 🤣

Restarting Grooming.exe
My cats will very often then proceed to wash the exact place I touched them, even though they just washed it right before I petted them. Like, I’m sorry my filthy human servant fingers dared to touch your priceless fur, your royal highness..
My cat only likes to be petted on the head. If I pet her on the back it gets her wound up and she gets the zoomies. Sometimes the murder mittens and fangs come out before the zoomies start so I have to watch how hard her tail is flipping back and forth 🖤
I'm probably terrible, but, honestly, there have been a few times when I grab a handful of chips and can't find a nearby napkin/towel and I've optioned to use the cat on my lap. 🙀
My cat used to put his unsheathed claws on my arm and just sit there. And soon after he would put his teeth on me, but not bite down. It was adorable! Kinda like this. download-1...9743a.jpeg
I used to have a cat that would rest her chin on your arm. If you didn't pet her she'd press down harder and harder. If you still didn't the fangs would come out and she'd start pressing them in harder and harder until you gave in and petted her. She would never actually bite, just push them down on your arm

Yes. Yes, you should care very much. And also lock your bedroom door while you are sleeping.

My cat always hops on the counter, never to look for food, but only when I’m washing dishes, she loves watching me and the water, does same in the shower tub
Mine will jump on tables but not the kitchen counter. You can teach them. They jump, you pick them up, kiss their furry cheeks and put them on the ground. No yelling needed.

My Kitty stole the Little Rubber Ball from the Game of Jacks and Amuses herself with it Playing Fetch!! Takes it to Be d with her!!
I had cats that loved to play fetch. Ones fav was the plastic ring off a gallon of milk. Another was rubberbands, Another was a crumpled up cig pack. So I bought those mylar little balls (for a similar sound), but they fetched the crumpled trash instead. The strangest cat though is the one I have now...not interested in boxes, paper bags, playing fetch, or pretty much anything cats usually enjoy. Makes me wonder what happened to him when he was a kitten.
Cat Has Other Plans
Both my cats were like this, at certain times of the year. I have been teaching for decades, and both of those cats had/have an odd quirk of seeming to understand calendar concepts. Work days, they deal with me getting up, even get a bit impatient if I didn't get their food out in a timely manner. Weekends and vacation days, though, I sleep in, and they'd just cuddle for however long. Neither the one I had several years ago nor the one I have now really yowled at me/jumped on me to make me feed them when I did sleep in on a day off. Every year, about the end of May, I'd deal with exactly what's going in this picture. I think their feeling is, "You need to be done going to work, already. Isn't it summer yet???" LOL.
I used to set my alarm 30min early just so she could get snuggles in before i get out of bed

This is the look of zoomies JUST about to hit XD pre_zoomie...bf0bea.jpg
I have a herd of elephants thundering through the hallway from about two to about four.
My boys will simply sit next to my head and make a little noise with anything they can find. I recently bought them a receptionist bell for that. One tap and hooman gets up to let you out of the room. My girls don't bother. Fine, except Coco, she will pat your shoulder like "umm excuse you"
When my cat zoomies, she makes noises like Taz (the Tasmanian demon in Bugs Bunny). I think I'm gonna need an old priest and a young priest 😅
He Really Do Be Like That
I was talking to a doctor about my sleep problems, and he recommended locking the cats out of my bedroom. I laughed and laughed. My cats respond to a closed door by flinging themselves bodily against it. Boom! Boom! Boom!
SO TRUE. I like to sleep in the dark but if I close the door all the way she scratches and meows. So I have an item on the floor so I can hold the door 'almost' closed but she can get through. She doesn't actually sleep in my bed. She lays in my bed until she thinks I am asleep and then leaves the room.
Then when you let them in and close the door, they start the same thing again, only this time to be let out. Rinse and repeat constantly back and forth if you keep closing the door. That’s how they train you to give them open access to sit down and have their buttholes touch the surfaces EVERYWHERE in the house.
My cat 5 seconds after I let her outside because I really think she wants to be out there given her constant loud begging
I had to replace the carpet on my landing because they'd destroyed it due to doors being closed. I say they, I mean "her", yes Amber, you.
And 5 minutes later, she changes her mind. The another 5 minutes later, she changes her mind again and so it goes on and on and on. All night.

This particular kitty had FHV (feline herpes virus) that resulted in corneal ulcers in both of its eyes. The ulcers were so bad that they required removal of the entire eye. Cats and dogs adjust very well to losing their sight, though :) so this kitty is likely perfectly happy.

Omg he's adorable I need him (I'm allergic to cats so this would be like absolutely ideal)
nope, people with cat allergies are actually not allergic to cat hair but to an enzym in the saliva of the cat. Sphynxes still have the enzym so you would be equally allergic to a sphynx cat i'm afraid... There is a cat breed however that mostly lacks the enzym (siberian forest cats) but you still have do do a dna-check to know because not all of them are hypoallergenic.

Normally you don't. But there are times when cats get into things that it's safer to give them a bath rather than get sick from whatever they got into. Like, what would you do if your cat got into a car engine for warmth and now has grease. This is just an example - cats can get into dangerous stuff in the home, as well (for those saying "just keep the cat indoor" -plus, indoor cats can sneak out on occasion).

My cats just did a marathon to go eat their food on the other side of the house-
We had a beautiful and very demanding adult Maine C**n that we adopted from our local shelter. His insistence at sleeping with me was unbreakable to the point that I would enlist my husband to “babysit” so that I could get a few hours of uninterrupted sleep (he was notorious for sleeping ON my chest with my fight of 110lbs vs his 28-32lb constantly waking me, some ungodly hour, as I would find him staring at me). Needing some much needed uninterrupted sleep, I would enlist my husband to “babysit” so that I could sleep in peace. Well, we have 2 doors that you can use for direct access to our backyard (one from the den and the other to our bedroom).. My husband’s uselessness babysitting resulted with him putting him outside only for him to run to our door within THREE seconds with him SCREAMING and DEMANDING to be let in our bedroom!!! My husband sucks at babysitting cats, but especially THIS cat, as he knew how to gain the “system”……😵💫😵💫
