21 Photos That Hilariously Prove That Cats Are Not-So-Secretly In Charge

Cats, while they are adorable and fluffy cuddle purr machines, they are also commonly considered to be cocky and independent. No matter their personality type, most cats fully believe they’re the ones in charge.

And really, whether or not we will admit it, cats definitely run the show in most households. Things have to be “just so” for a cat to give its approval, otherwise don’t even think about it, or the will make you regret it.

Did you purchase a brand-new cat bed for your beloved feline friend, but didn’t include them in the choice? They’ll sleep on the box it came in instead.

Fancy new cat food? Chances are likely they’ll turn their noses up at your pathetic offering of tuna and whitefish paté.

Do you want to feed your cat on a schedule? Your cat will definitely set the timing for it, usually resulting in an early morning wake-up call.

Thankfully, we’re not alone in suffering at the paws of our furry overlords. Folks all over the world like to share their stories, pictures, and videos of how their cats actually run the show.

We collected some of the best and funniest cat pictures that perfectly show that they make the rules in their homes. Keep scrolling to see more.
