Cats have ruled the internet since the beginning of time. It's hard to deny the appeal of these adorable, furry creatures, whose images and videos make up some of the most viewed content online. But why are cats so captivating?
Perhaps it's because they are notoriously curious and tend to do weird things that are difficult to explain. If you're a cat owner, you know that sometimes it's hard to tell what your feline friend is up to.
Why, for example, would they choose to squeeze into the tiniest box and fight anyone who tries to remove them from it? It's all part of the mystique that makes cats so intriguing to us humans.
But rest assured, your cat is not the only weird little guy out there. Twitter account @weirdlilguys has shared a batch of funny tweets that prove just how strange cats can be.
Cats possess a captivating charm that draws us in. According to Sally Chamberlain, a clinical animal behaviorist, cats are endearing due to their adorable appearance, big eyes, peculiar actions, and fluid movements.
Their behavior originates from their heritage as solitary predators, which can be entertaining for us when they display typical feline behavior, such as wriggling their hindquarters or scaling curtains. Cats exhibit behaviors that may seem random but are based on their inherent instincts.
For example, they are fond of squeezing into tight spaces, leaping onto elevated objects, and gazing out of windows for prolonged periods. According to Chamberlain, these behaviors are linked to their well-developed hunting instincts.
Cats may utilize tight spaces to avoid danger from predators and prey, jump to high places for a better view of their surroundings, and scan the exterior through windows for signs of potential prey or danger.
From playing with non-toys like hair ties and bottle caps to sitting in the most unusual places, cats are truly "weird little guys." It's hard not to laugh at their antics and wonder what they're thinking.
While your cat is contentedly purring on your lap, take a moment to disturb them with a good laugh as you go through these photos. And remember, it's not just your cat that's weird - they all are.

weirdlilguysIn Summary...
It is essential to understand that cats' behavior has a purpose, and they are unlikely to act randomly. Chamberlain advises taking a cat's behavior into context as it may be a sign of stress.
For instance, if a cat is frequently seeking high places to rest, it could be because of something at a lower level that is causing them stress. Nonetheless, most feline behavior is purposeful, as cats are instinctive and intelligent animals that will do whatever is necessary to ensure their survival and safety.
Cats' fascinating behavior and charming personalities make them beloved pets. So the next time you find yourself lost in a sea of cat pictures or videos, you can take comfort in the fact that it's not just you – there's something inherently fascinating about these beloved feline creatures.
