50 Funny Photos Of “Cats Being Weird Little Guys” That Prove Life With A Cat Is Never Boring (New Pics)
It can take a while to know someone before you can be your true self around them. Well, genetic and archaeological evidence show that people and cats have been buddies for 10,000 years, so it's no wonder that we're so comfortable in each other's presence.
But if, for whatever reason, you're still not sure whether or not felines can reveal their genuine personalities to us, there's a fun social media project that will clear all the doubts.
Called 'Weird Lil Guys,' it shares pictures of moments when cats embraced their quirky side. From helping their owners change a lightbulb to fighting a pumpkin, continue scrolling to check them out!

Is that a white shepherd dog? I believe they're known for their goodnaturedness, so cute!!
So why are cats so weird? According to a video from TED Ed, narrated by Tony Buffington, an Emeritus Professor of Veterinary Clinical Sciences at The Ohio State University College of Veterinary Medicine, there's a perfectly logical explanation for it.
"Cats today retain many of the same instincts that allowed them to thrive in the wild for millions of years," he said. "This explains some of their seemingly strange behaviors: To them, our homes are their jungles."

These two are recovering from anesthesia, probably had their teeth cleaned. This is what your cat looks like just after the breathing tube is pulled out. We pull their tongues out of the way to make sure their airways are clear and they can breathe easier Source: I'm a former veterinary nurse

I think the cat probably has a physical disability - either some sort of spinal issue or partial paralysis or something
Load More Replies...To illustrate this concept, here are the explanations from the video, based on the hypothetical life of Grizmo the cat:
Why do cats love the highest spot in the house? "Enabled by their unique muscular structure and keen balancing abilities, cats climbed to high vantage points to survey their territory and do spot prey in the wild. Grizmo doesn't need these particular skills to find and hunt down dinner in her food bowl today, but, instinctually, viewing the living room from the top of the bookcase is exactly what she's evolved to do."

Why do cats love to attack small objects? "As wild predators, cats are opportunistic and hunt whenever prey is available. Since most cat prey are small, cats in the wild need to eat many times each day, and use a stalk-pounce-kill-eat strategy to stay fed. This is why Grizmo prefers to chase and pounce on little toys, and eats small meals over the course of the day and night."

Why do cats go into small spaces? "Small prey tend to hide in tiny spaces in their natural environments. So one explanation for Grizmo's propensity to reach into containers and openings is that she's compelled by the same curiosity that helped ensure the continuation of her species for millions of years before."

Why do cats sharpen their claws on the couch? "In the wild, cats needed sharp claws for climbing, hunting, and self-defense. Sharpening their claws on nearby surfaces kept them conditioned and ready, helped stretch their back and leg muscles, and relieved some stress, too. So it's not that Grizmo hates your couch, chair, ottoman, pillows, curtains, and everything else you put in her environment. She's ripping these things to shreds and keeping her claws in tip-top shape because this is exactly what her ancestors did in order to survive."

Why do cats sleep in strange places? "As animals that were preyed upon, cats evolved to not get caught. And in the wild, the cats that were the best at avoiding predators thrived. So at your house today, Grizmo is an expert at squeezing into small spaces and seeking out and hiding in unconventional spots. It also explains why she prefers a clean and odor-free litter box; that's less likely to give away her location to any predators that may be sniffing around nearby."

Why do cats purr? "Considering everything we do know about cats, it seems that one of their most predominant behaviors is still one of the most mysterious. Cats may purr for any number of reasons, such as happiness, stress, and hunger. But curiously, the frequency of their purrs — between 25 and 150 hertz — is within a range that can promote tissue regeneration. So while her purring makes Grizmo an excellent nap companion, it is also possible that her purr is healing her muscles and bones — and maybe even yours, too."

theres something about cats being up close to a camera or pictures that have the .5 setting with faces like those that just make me laugh. its my favorite thing on this earth
So as contradictory as it may sound, cats are basically domesticated wild animals trying to adapt to our humans' unusual homes.

"Azhrarn, Lord of Chaos, made a wager with Uhlume, Lord of Death, that he could convince Man to willingly accept snakes into his dwellings. Lord Uhlume accepted, for he knew the great fear and revulsion that Man had for the Ophidians. But Azhrarn was cunning, and took some of the snake's length and used it to fashion legs, that it could walk and leap, and not slither in that manner Men found repulsive. He wrapped it in fur, that it be warm and not off-puttingly cold. He added ears and a voice, to further disguise the serpent. And he gifted it to Man, telling him that it would guard his granaries (which the snake was pleased enough to do, as it enjoyed mice). So it was that Man adopted snakes as welcomed companions, though Lord Uhlume and Azhrarn disputed the legitimacy of the wager for eons."

There's an old, old story. If you look at a tabby cat's forehead you can see an "M" etched there in little fur colors. Legend has it that since there was no room at the Inn, Jesus's birth night became very, very cold. He whimpered and cried a little because Mary and Joseph couldn't get him warm enough. So, a little tabby cat came to the rescue and snuggled the baby Jesus deep within his manger. With little thought for herself, Tabby kept him sweetly warm throughout the cold night. The next morning to show her gratitude Mary blessed all tabby cats with her mark to let the world and people know how special they are and how Our Lady loves them.
