I have now chanced upon the latest big thread that people have been subtooting about for the last day or so. It has made my life no better than before I read it.
Here's a picture of Charley cat sitting on a chair that she has recently decided she likes. She always makes my life better.
#subtoot #cat

White and black cat (cow-markings) sitting on a green chair (maybe looks blue in the photo). The chair is curved, which is great for cats to snuggle into. She was snuggled just before this photo was taken, but is sitting up now pondering whether to get up (she does).

Which one is the neck pillow, and which one is the cat? #CatsOfMastodon #Erie

On a bed, on a pair of jeans, a black neck pillow and a black cat next to each other. They're about the same size and look very similar, including how the neck pillow has a purple & white tag at 5-o-clock, and Erie (the cat) has a little white tuft and white whiskers around the same position.

Lulu the #cat is lying on my mattress. I lie next to her. I gesticulate to her to climb on my chest, so I would get more space. She looks at me like I was some moron. In the meantime, Ruh notices the gesture and jumps on my chest.
Situation: I'm lying on half of the mattress. On one side, Lulu is stretching next to me and pushing me down. On the other, Ruh is lying on my chest, counterweighing me to the floor. I push my elbow against the bedside table not to fall.
But miraculously, they don't fight, so I ensure. Lulu started washing Ruh, and Ruh doesn't mind. I'm flabbergasted.
To the moment when Ruh suddenly starts sliding down, so she pushes all her claws into my chest. I shriek painfully, and both cats run away.

There is a cauliflower hash brown on that plate. It's not everyone's cup of tea but I adore cauliflower. Sparky doesn't like cauliflower but he might so he needs to get into the small space between my lap and the table to make sure. Usually we shut them out when we eat but I was home alone yesterday, a rare occurrence, and risked it.

The male cat is holding up the tail of the fish in one “hand” and a knife in the other. He has a sheepish look on his face, and 2 beads of sweat coming off his head. The female cat stands with her arms folded across her chest, saying, “I hope you licked yourself before handling our food?”

The cat's face is in sharp focus, with its right eye, a striking dark pupil surrounded by a lighter iris, prominently displayed and looking directly at the viewer. Its fur is a mix of brown, grey, and white tabby markings. The cat's left paw is raised and blurred, appearing to be in mid-motion, with a distinct white patch on the front.

A black-and-white tuxedo cat, looking somewhat less than impressed and gazing directly at the viewer, sits in front of a landscape-aspected painting, perhaps half again wider than it is tall. Though its proportions are closer to those of a cow,—albeit exaggerated to use as much space as possible—the markings on the tuxedo cat that fills the rectangular canvas indicate that it’s a portrait of the otherwise normal cat that now sits before it.

Ruh is a typical chestcat. She loves sleeping on my chest, given that either I'm wearing something or I'm covered by a blanket. She won't lie on it if I'm covered by a quilt. However, she doesn't mind lying on a quilt without anyone under it. She doesn't like my lap particularly; I have to lean back enough so she could place her front feet on my belly.
Mr Ek is a lapcat. He would gladly lie on my lap when I'm sitting. If I'm lying down, he also prefers the area of my knees.
Lulu is an universalcat. She will gladly lie down both on my lap, and on my chest. And if my chest is occupied, she's ready to lie down almost on my head, just to have the dominant position.

Video of an orange cat seeing a stink bug by a window and then deciding to sniff it. Sniffing the little sticker causes the kitty to gag and recoil, but their curiosity does not subside. They carefully lift their paw to touch it, flinch even before that reach, then decide to not touchy the buggy. In the end, they just stare at it and wonder.

A fireman has climbed to the top of a ladder poking through the cloud, in front of the cat. He is holding out an opened can of cat food. The fireman is saying to the cat, “I don’t know how you got up here, but I’m here to help you down.”

A mostly black tuxedo cat. White paws and a white chest, but from the back you'd think she was an entirely black cat. She's sitting on the floor, looking at the camera patiently (waiting for me to go back to bed).

The same tuxedo cat, walking up towards the camera. Two white paws are barely visible, and only a small portion of her white chest is visible, but otherwise a black coat. Her whiskers are white. Her nose is invisible, just black pixels with no defining features.
