Cats

The Internet loves cats. This is a fact demonstrated by website after website, Facebook entry after Facebook entry, email forward after email forward. But leave it to a website to sum up why we love cats...and set it to music. Meet the Procatinator, the website that'll eat all your free time.

As if pet owners weren't beholden enough to their cats already, one kitty appears to have learned sign language for "eat." What's next? The sign for "clean my litter"?

When you adopt a pet from a shelter, the good deed of giving a creature in need a loving home is its own reward. But when Amy Jung picked up a 21-pound orange-and-white cat named Puddin from a Humane Society nearby her Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin home, her reward was so much greater. The cat promptly saved her life.

As the 2012 presidential election nears and campaigns get even nastier, we present this cute video as an example of unity and togetherness. It's a rat and a cat sharing a bowl a milk! (No symbolism here, we promise.)

What's the only thing cuter than a British Shorthair kitten waking up from a nap? That would be four British Shorthair kittens waking up from naps. Especially when one of the kitties can't keep his paws to himself.

As further proof that cats are excellent at therapeutic massage, a kitty works the tired back muscles of a pug in the cute video below. Down, down. A little to the right. Ahh! Right there.

Telepathy exists, some insist. It can even allow us to control the thoughts of others. Well, if others are adorable kitties.

You may not be into dubstep, that dance music genre beloved by the internet, but some cats really seem to dig it. In this video, a cat named Skifcha shakes it head, rolls its tongue and generally freaks out while electronic dance music throbs in the background.

You may recognize DJ Kitty from viral videos such as this one. But the turntable spinning feline is more than just an internet star. He has also been used for the past few seasons as a scoreboard gimmick to fire up the crowds at Tampa Bay Rays' games, much like the notorious rally monkey is used by the Anaheim Angels.

Typically, cats have a great deal of self-regard, but this kitty completely loses all dignity as it scuttles after a laser pointer like some frantic crab-cat.

Four Turkish Angora kittens move in perfect unison as a woman waves a toy back and forth in front of them. Aw, who knew the killer instinct to stalk prey could be so cute?

While this video begins with cat fighting (literally), you will eventually learn it was all just a ruse to draw the dogs of the house into the room, and then humiliate one of them with a stealth sneak attack.

Because he wants back into the house, a cat named Albino barks like a dog to get his owner's attention.

You know what they say about getting too close to the TV? Well, that also applies to cats, although, as you can see in the video below, it's more than just this kitty's vision that suffers from his proximity to the tube.

Cats have a love-hate relationship with plastic bags. Sure they're fun to play with, but the moment that plastic bag starts to fight back you might as well call the landfill because that bag is dead. Take this curious cat for example.
