1 | This finicky feline.

If you want your cat to appreciate the expensive piece of cat furniture you got him, you probably shouldn't have left that box there—or really any container he could pour himself into, for that matter.

2 | This grumpy guy.

And you thought you were grumpy when you didn't get an adequate amount of sleep.

3 | This tiny chef.

"What do you mean you're taking me-owt to dinner? I've already got cat-cio e pepe on the stove," is pretty clearly what adorable Charlie is thinking here.

Freyja here may have forgotten her sleep mask, but like any resourceful woman, she knows how to improvise.

Your cat might knock anything off your table as soon as you set it down. But he won't swat those glasses off  his face... not when they look this good.

Blaze here knows that when you want your meal to be fluffy and sleepy, you've got to cook it slow and low.

11 | This can with a strange choice of hat.

No box is too small for this proud subscriber to the "If it fits, I sits" philosophy.

Yuki here is so cute that we're sure your kids wouldn't even be that sad to find out their Christmas stockings had been replaced with an old gym sock nailed to the wall.
