Greetings, cat lovers. There's not much I can say about our furry little feline friends that other people on the Internet haven't said before. That's especially true for our sister sites on Cheezburger. The truth is that cats rule everything around me. Some commenters razz me for my “sad cat lady” ways, but it doesn't get to me. I know that my cat obsession and self-deprecating humor are not particularly unique on the Internet. In fact, judging by the sheer volume of cat memes, articles, and pi…

Being a cat lady is no easy feat. While some people use the term in a derogatory manner as if we're resigned to a spinster's future and kitty litter-covered floors, being a cat-obsessed woman definitely has its challenges. For one, going on trips freely. When I head out for a vacation, I'm forced to give my roommate a long list of instructions that I'm not totally sure he'll pay attention to. It's that or pay a cat sitter to check in on my babies, and in this economy, that's getting more diffic…

Happy National Pet Day! It's believed that h umans started domesticating dogs more than 30,000 years ago. That's 10-20,000 years before cats waltzed into the lives of humans and domesticated themselves. It's also thousands of years before horses and ruminants (sheep, cattle, goats, etc) were put to use by enterprising homo sapiens. So basically, we've been keeping pets for a very, very long time. While pets have been found in tombs - both mummified and not - it feels as though our animals are b…

Dogs are precious. Even as a relatively new “cat person,” I cannot turn my back on the adorable, loyal, and sometimes stinky creatures I grew up with. The bond shared with a pet is strong, and there's something about a dog bond that can't be replicated. The eyes, full of devotion. Their grief when you leave home. Most of all, when I think about dogs, I think about Teddy, my family's long-deceased Wheaten Terrier. Teddy was amazing. He wasn't great with other dogs (he wasn't socialized early in…

Recently, a Twitter user ( @PhadkeTai) has sparked outrage and anger among pet owners and animal obsessives by suggesting that our beloved pets are incapable of loving their owners. The tweet, which quickly went viral - generated quite a heated debate and a lot of criticism from those of us who believe (or know!) that animals are indeed capable of love and emotional connection with their human companions. @PhadkeTai's remarks were perceived as insensitive and dismissive of the deep bonds that m…

While we don't normally need an excuse to look at cute animals on the internet, but we'll take one when it comes up. And boy, did one come up this weekend. Twitter user @adamgreattweet (who happens to live up to his handle) penned a viral tweet about the differences between dog names and cat names. Despite the fact that it was a wild (and harmless) generalization, the quip went viral, racking up over 36k retweets and almost 500k likes.
