cats

The internet has a longstanding, undisputed love of cats. Just because we love something doesn't mean we have to think it's perfect, though. Cats, for example, in addition to being cuddly and adorable, are basically huge jerks.

The public has spoken and Monopoly will cast away the boring old iron token, a symbol of domestic housework from a simpler time (it's not even an electric iron), which has been included in the board game for almost 80 years. In its place will be a cat. Hey, are you really that surprised? The internet loves cats.

There's no sense in denying cats can be a little sassy from time to time, simply because they're not afraid to make it totally obvious they hate something. Costumes? Check. Reindeer antlers? Double check. Their 'tude doesn't make them any less adorable, though! It's sort of charming, actually.

Yet again another back woods family horde cats.

Well I think New Zealand just declared war with me. Yup I’m about to show up on their front door with a bag full of cats ready to kitty bomb the hell out of them all!

Generally, it's impossible to get cats to do anything on command, let alone smuggle contraband. But a kitty in Brazil was recently detained for attempting to sneak nearly a dozen items into a prison in the northeastern town of Arapiraca.

Cats are funny little creatures. Some like dressing up in reindeer antlers while others bask in the grumpy glory of fame. It doesn't matter what kind of feline we come across-- we're always big fans of the furballs. However, there is one type of kitty that tops our list of favorites: the kind that gets stuck in things.

As 2012 comes to an end and we're reminiscing about the year's greatest internet celebs, there's a certain hilarious feline that tops our list-- the one and only 'Grumpy Cat.' Tarder Sauce, as the sad kitty is also known, first debuted on Reddit, and the feline has since become a furry superstar, scoring interviews left and right and inspiring tons of funny memes.

Cats have a reputation for being rude and mean, and in some cases it's not entirely undeserved. In other cases, though, there are cats who demonstrate just the opposite. Like this one, who politely taps a human on the arm, and keeps it up until he gets some scratches...

My heart is always warmed to its core when I hear about or see fellow creatures who love and appreciate heavy metal. The latest is a fat, furry cat who lies on his owner as he plays the air drums. He is not phased at all and actually looks like he is quite enjoying it, which I don't blame him. Watch the comical video after the jump.

In a story that isn't nearly as cruel as it sounds, a woman in Plattsburgh, NY took a cat for a ride. The only problem was that she didn't know it until it had spent over 100 miles stuck to the car bumper.

There are quite a few movies out this weekend and they all look pretty good but my inner nerd is pulling me toward Disney's African Cats.
