I’m not exactly sure of when World Cat Day started, but I have a theory on why it was created: because there is a shadow government that runs the entire world, composed entirely of cats… cats in suits that regularly sit in a bunker deep underground, smoke cigars, wear suits, and discuss how they will continue to enhance their iron grip on our hearts.
Ok, I don’t really believe that – but here we are: it’s Friday & it’s World Cat Day – two excuses to stare at pictures and videos of kitties from all around the internet. I must warn you. If you stare at these pictures for too long, you could very fall into a deep hypnosis and snap out of it 10 years from now, not knowing your own name or what year it is. View at your own risk, but above all, Happy World Cat Day!
Let’s kick things off with the Cat that started it all: Keyboard Cat!

Still not sure of exactly what Nyan cat’s deal is, but regardless, still one of the most awesome things to ever spring forth from the internet. I just can’t stop watching…
Not everyone is impressed with World Cat Day. In this case, though. It’s not surprising!
