“Not A Single Thought”: 34 Cats That Are So Derpy, Their Owners Just Had To Take A Picture
If you look past the debate on whether dogs or cats are more adorable, you’ll find that both sets of animals are equally as derpy. Although felines are known for their quiet sophistication, most pet owners will agree that they still do a lot of silly things all the time.
The cats in this list are a prime example of the fact that they certainly can be goofy, and don’t care who’s watching them behave that way. All of these photos were clicked at the right time, so as to capture every feline’s derpiest mood.

This Guy… The Derpiest
Dear me - this is exactly what my little boy is going to look like when he grows up (currently 9 months old).
Although all the cats on this list seem extremely silly, there are actually some interesting reasons behind why they act up or suddenly get the zoomies. As most pet owners can attest, sometimes, their felines might start acting crazy after using the litterbox, which can be pretty odd to see at first.
According to science, this might be because they’re feeling relieved, especially if their vagus nerve is stimulated, which can signal a sense of elation to the brain. In some cases, though, certain felines might experience a drop in heart rate and blood pressure, which might push them to move frantically.

I bet it's warm up there XD My oldest cat Kohl likes to lay on top of my computer too. I had to tape an old pill bottle lid over the power button because sometimes she'd accidentally turn my PC off while jumping up or down!

Apart from the crazy behavior of cats, they’re also incredibly talented and can produce up to 100 unique sounds. Research also states that even though felines are incredibly vocal, they only use “meows” to communicate with humans and never do this with other cats.
These simple meows from kitties can actually have different meanings and convey to humans whether they are sad, hungry, happy, tired, and more. It also seems that if they make such sounds with a higher intensity, it often means that the emotion behind what they are trying to convey is quite strong.

What Does This Cat Say?
Though the derpiness of all the cats in this list seems to be consistent regardless of their color, it seems that most animal lovers can agree that orange felines are the silliest. According to scientists, the reason for this might be that orange cats seem to be a bit friendlier than other kitties.
This friendliness might help them get along better with humans and also might allow their personality to rise to the surface. Despite that, it’s still hard to figure out why the idea that they share ‘one braincell’ came to be, but it’s possible that they’re just not afraid to be quirky, like other cats.

He looks so relaxed and so secure. Someone's done a good job of being a cat parent.
There seem to be so many wonderful and interesting things that felines do, but one endearing behavior that all pet lovers adore is when they start kneading. Animal experts state that one of the reasons why cats love ‘making biscuits’ is that it might remind them of their kitten days when they pressed on their mother’s tummy to stimulate milk flow.
It might also make them feel calm and relaxed to do this repetitive behavior, and pet owners might also see their felines do this when they are ready to take a nap. Since cats also have scent glands between their toes, this might be an easier way for them to mark their territory.

Cats are definitely curious creatures and often shrouded in mystery, but hopefully this list made you see them in a cuter and sillier light. They definitely seem to have many facets to their personalities, and pet owners can surely agree that they are extremely goofy whenever they get the chance.

Wonder why they try to eat, or at least roll around in, the excess/compacted/matted fur that we JUST brushed/combed/cut/shaved off of them. Is it maybe because it smells like them, or looks like them? I mean, you’d think they’d be so happy to have it removed (it can be very hot and uncomfortable for them, as it can get very heavy if it builds up, and blocks air getting to their skin, the worst cases resulting in the mats causing sores on their skin plus impeding their mobility) that they wouldn’t want to even go near the pile (that’s destined for the trash).
