From their tiny toe beans to their derpiest bleps, the internet can’t get enough of cats and their high jinks, no matter what they’re doing. Without them, we wouldn’t have cat memes, and who wants to live in a world like that? Not even doggo fans.
One online community posts pics of cats that prove without a doubt that, if they can fit in it, they’ll sit in it. From hats, to shoes, to air fryers, these kitties demonstrate that comfort is a state of mind, or at least feline flexibility. Dive into this collection of the cutest.

Writing for Cats.com, Dr Lizzie Youens explains that cats have a whopping 53 vertebrae (that’s a lot more than us humans, who only have 33), mostly due to having over 20 of these small bones throughout their long tails. These bones are very flexibly connected, with elastic cushioning discs between each one.
These super flexible spinal connections explain why cats can twist in mid-air without damaging their spines and change direction in an instant—both essential skills for the type of hunting they do. A cat’s pelvis is also more loosely connected to the spine than other mammals, for added flexibility.

According to Catster, cats were first domesticated in the Near East around 9,500 years ago. Archaeological evidence from a Neolithic site in Cyprus, dating to approximately 7500–7200 BC, includes the burial of an African wildcat alongside a human, suggesting a close relationship between humans and cats at that time.
Genetic studies indicate that all domestic cats descend from the Middle Eastern wildcat, Felis sylvestris lybica. These wildcats were attracted to early human settlements by the abundance of rodents, leading to a mutually beneficial relationship that eventually resulted in domestication.

Of course, with the advent of the internet, cats truly found their stage. In 2015, 15% of all web traffic consisted of cats and cat-related content. Over 2 million pieces of feline footage were posted on YouTube in 2014, which accounted for more than 26 billion views. By 2022, the number of cat videos on the site had reached tens of millions.
Cats dominate social media, too. The @cats_of_instagram account, for example, boasts almost 13M followers and features over 18,000 posts of cats doing their thing, whether they’re being adorable, derpy, or just plain crazy. The hashtag #catsofinstagram appears on a whopping 178 million posts and is a treasure trove of adorable kitty content.

Beyond their cute faces and fuzzy fur, cat anatomy is a marvel of evolution, designed for precision, stealth, and survival. Whether it’s their ability to leap several times their height, their extraordinary senses, or their ultra-flexible bodies, every part of a cat serves a unique function that makes it quite unlike any other creature in the animal kingdom.
As much as they’ve been domesticated, kitties are still wild at heart. A house cat’s genome is 95.6 percent tiger, and they share many behaviors with their jungle ancestors, says Layla Morgan Wilde, a cat behavior expert and the founder of Cat Wisdom 101. These behaviors include scent marking by scratching, prey play, prey stalking, pouncing, chinning, and urine marking.

So, all in all, what makes cats so captivating? Maybe it's that perfect contradiction; they're simultaneously our domesticated companions and tiny wild predators. Their incredible physiology, ancient lineage, and untamed instincts remind us they're not quite pets in the traditional sense, but fascinating creatures who've chosen to tolerate us.
