Pugs Vs Cats : 6 Reasons The World Became Obsessed With Cute Animals

6. Cats Own The Internet

If there was a need for any proof of our feline obsession, the front page of YouTube would be more than enough. Everybody is guilty of flittering away office hours with a sly venture over to the video-sharing website just to revel in the multitude of cat videos. What better way to procrastinate than to watch a cat fail miserably at a jump from a deceptively sleek table? Or to sit and fawn over baby kittens play-fighting? Their pathetic mews almost undetectable to the human ear. And if YouTube doesn't float your boat, a quick Google search reveals literally thousands of memes dedicated to cats. For some reason, pictures of cats wearing a slice of bread are the best thing since ... sliced bread, as well as Kittlers (cats who bare a striking resemblance to Adolf Hitler) and the legendary; the mythical; the unshakeable snowshoe that is Grumpy Cat. It isn't always fun and games though. Who can forget Nyan Cat? Or who wishes they could forget that thing? More kittens and less 8-bit please!

I love all things imaginative, from the page to the screen, and nurture a soft spot for Donald Sutherland and Daniel Bryan.
