You think it's your drink until they get there. 

Cats drink a lot of water, just never from their own bowls. You can fill it, refresh it, move it somewhere else, but it still won't matter. The second you pour yourself a glass, that's the one they want. Same water, different cup, but now it's somehow purrferred.

They don't take their time about it either. They walk over, lean in, and start drinking like this was planned. No hesitation, no checking, just straight into your glass like they poured it themselves. Their own bowl could be right there, full and waiting, and it might as well not exist.

They don't just take a sip and leave. They'll stay there, lapping it up like they've got hydration goals to hit. You're standing there watching your drink slowly disappear, trying to decide if it's still yours or if it's been fully claimed. It doesn't feel like your call anymore.

At some point, you accept it. They are staying hydrated, just not in a way that makes any sense. Their bowl is untouched, your glass is not, and that's just how it works.

Some people add an extra shot of espresso to their coffee to turn their day around, but we need a cornucopia of cute kitties and five minutes of scrolling to make any day a pawsitive one. 

Everyone focuses on how bad Mondays are, but we always furget how ruff Wednesdays can be. You feel like you've gotten so far in the week, and yet, the weekend is still nowhere in sight. Somehow, you have to make it through, and we all have our little hacks for fixing the midweek funk. Some people buy themselves a sweet treat, others allow themselves an extra cup of coffee (or three), but we don't need any of that. We just need cute cats and all the wholesome serotonin they purrvide us.

When you look at pictures of something you love, your brain is flooded with a rush of happiness and nostalgia thanks to how your brain is wired. Your stress levels even decrease. You will start to recall meaningful memories around that thing and start to feel calmer. This is how we get through the worst day of the week - by tricking our brain into feeling happy by showing it the most awwdorable kitties on the internet.

If you made it this far, you're probably as much of a fan of felines as we are, so you're in the right place. No matter if you woke up on the wrong side of the cat bed or your day was already in the litter box, there's nothing some cute cats and kittens can't fix. It's scientifically proven!

Cats are well known to be weirdos, but no one knows just how weird they are other than their pawrents. And today we are lucky enough to have some of those curious quirks exposed by the feline pawrents of the world.

As you might have expected, each and every cat's quirk is unique, like a snowflake. Sure, most are based around particular foods, but even within that category there is a plethora of variety and variations in the strange things that these cats like to get up to. Which is honestly rather delightful to hear that they might be even a little stranger and more particular than some of us hoomans who seem to have little to no limits on the strange things we are into.

So if you want to find out if cats are quirkier than you, or you simply want to enjoy the wonderfully weird things that cats like to get up to, we invite you to dive into this list of crazy cat quirks to get your feline fill. Just be warned, you might not be able to look at certain fruits or vegetables in the same way again. 
 

They went looking for a cat, but the right one found them first.

This started as a couple who weren't exactly on the same page about cats. She had always been a cat person. He wasn't so convinced. After her last cat passed at 17, they looked around at shelters and adoption listings, but nothing really clicked and it didn't feel like the right time.

Then Connie showed up and made the decision for them.

She was found at a truck stop, crawling out from under a conex container, covered in oil and clearly not doing great. And still, she walked right up, meowing and asking for attention like she already knew she belonged. That was it. The phone call home wasn't a question, it was more of a warning that a cat was coming home.

From there, it all came together. A bath, some food, a litter box, a vet visit, and a little time to settle in. What started as a rough situation turned into a cat who is completely attached to her people, always nearby and always wanting attention.

Six months later, even the non-cat person is fully on board. Connie, named after where she was found, has completely taken over in the best way, and it's hard to imagine things any other way.

If you thought that the Cat Distribution System only delivers a cat once to their person, then this story will make you think again.

For when our cat dad most unfortunately lost the feline love of his life, he thought there was no chance they would cross paths ever again. At least not in this life. Which was a fair assumption to make, he lived in a remote area, with little civilization around his home leaving little chance for his cat child to be found and returned to him in the traditional way of using signs and social media groups.

But that dear friends is the beauty of the CDS. In the most unlikely of situations, in the most surprising of ways it works its magic and brings together the cats and people who are destined to be together. And by the sounds of it, this man and his cat were truly meant to be together, so the CDS stepped in to make it happen when they saw that they were not managing to make it happen on their own.
