20 Examples Of Cats Playing By Their Own Damn Rules

Cats just do what they want, honestly.

1. Let's be real: Cats spend 100% of their lives doing whatever they want.

2. You, who feed, house, and care for them? They tolerate you...at best.

3. They have no time for sentiment.

4. Or personal space.

5. They make their own version of fun.

So we had to put a cone on my dog again. My cat loves it

6. They practically laugh at your attempts to predict their whims.

7. They basically run the house.

8. They run your SLEEP SCHEDULE, for crying out loud.

“I couldn’t breathe when I slept so I installed a camera”

9. (Forget the word "sleep" at all if you've got two of them.)

10. Wherever they go, there they reign.

11. Wherever they're weary, there they sit.

12. Sometimes it feels as if you're playing a supporting role in your own life.

13. The boundaries are always being tested.

14. Or downright ignored.

15. They have a...unique way of showing their love.

16. Sometimes you're not sure if it's love or a wanton disrespect.

17. I mean, it’s a rare day when they seem truly sorry for the havoc they have wrought.

18. The hard work they've undermined.

19. And the destruction they've rained down.

20. But honestly, cats are such regal weirdos, it's totally worth it!!
