The peace and tranquility of this family home has been interrupted by a trail camera pointed right towards the property. As you can imagine, the homeowner isn't thrilled about this, but what can they do to get the camera removed from their neighbor's property line?

After a homeowner paid a contractor half of the cost up front for some electrical work, the contractor repeatedly delayed the start date and eventually ceased responding entirely. This led the homeowner to track down the contractor's mother in an attempt to get the work done or their money back.

Now, alongside the iconic Thai elephant, the Suphalak, Korat, Siamese, Konja, and Khao Manee cat breeds are a part of Thailand's cultural representation. Each breed has its own mythology, purrsonality, and cute characteristics that we're pawsitively obsessed with.

We've known from the beginning that cats were going to rule the world, and this is the first step to that happening. It may be a small step, but it is still a step. The Thai government has named its 5 indigenous cat breeds as part of Thailand's "national identity". Some of these breeds are rarer than others, like the Suphalak, a chocolate-colored cat with fierce features, and others are more well-known, like the Siamese cat. 

Seeing as we love all kinds of cats here at I Can Has Cheezburger, we did some digging and found all the lore your feline-fanatic brain would ever hope for regarding these cute kitties. It's purrfectly fascinating to know that some Suphalak cats were thought to bring good luck, and others disaster. The Korat cats weren't for sale. They were instead given as gifts, especially to newly married couples. The Khao Manee were kept inside the royal palace, thought to bring good luck!

There aren't many people we can geek out about cats with, so this kind of news is purrfect for us. It's not every day you get to learn about rare and unique cat breeds that are now national symbols.

We know where our next trip is going to be, Thailand, here we come!

The Lord of the Rings always has a way of making fantasy fans happier, and if plebeians and non-LOTR fans gave The Fellowship, The Two Towers, and The Return of the King just one simple binge-watching weekend, they would feel the same way: Enchanted, enthralled, and utterly captivated by the Tolkien universe. 

Clock starts now, you have 12 hours and 6 minutes.

It's time for another purrfect collection of viral cat tweets to start the week with! 

Another Monday is upon us, and yet again, as always, we are completely not ready for all that this entails. Another week of work, another week of craziness in the world, another week of having to do things that we don't want to do because we are adults, and if we don't do those things, then who is going to take care of our spoiled cats at home? And still… with all of that, there is one thing on Monday morning that is always pawsome, and that is the fresh collection of cat tweets that we bring you. 

Every single week, we take is upon ourselves to put together the finest collection of viral cat tweets fresh from twitter. We think of this as one of our most impurrtant tasks of the week. We go onto that platform, we sift through all the madness, and we find the things that people actually want to see - the viral cat stories, memes, and adorable pictures - and put them all together into one collection. A collection of absolute purrfection. Something that you will actually want to start your Monday with. 

Imagine bringing in $7 million of business to your company, only to be rewarded with a cheap plaque that was likely purchased online for under $20. Talk about all that hard work leading to nothing!

Most employees, especially those who work in sales, expect more than a shoutout during a company meeting for their efforts. The best way to reward these hard-working individuals is to validate them monetarily. After all, they brought in all that business. Shouldn't they be able to benefit from that increased revenue as well?

Acro-cats in meowtion!

Cat lovers are always impressed by their feline's high-flying abilities, but where does this springy energy come from? Do cats have access to an infinite wellspring of grace, power, and athleticism? If you have a Garfield-like feline, lounging in the sunshine and dreaming of their next bowl of kibbles, you may doubt your cat's athletic ability, but inside every cat is an acrobat, itching to be set free. 

All you have to do is whip out the laser pointer or the feather on a string, and watch your cat spring into action like a 1980s kung fu master. 

It is said that a mother's love is unconditional. However, it turns out that just is not true for some mothers, like this one who pressured her daughter to borrow $40k from her to buy an apartment and become a homeowner, but then used said debt against her. Family drama always tends to sprout when money is involved… Now, the family dynamic is donezo, and the only interaction they have is for her daughter to make her monthly payments. 

Somewhere out there is a smol cat causing tiny chaos.

Smol cats look like someone accidentally made a regular cat at 50 percent size and just decided to roll with it. Tiny paws. Tiny nose. Tiny little face that somehow still manages to look very serious about whatever it's doing. They wander around the house like they have extremely important responsibilities, even though those responsibilities mostly involve staring at things and being adorable.

A smol cat sitting down turns into a perfect little fluff orb. Just a round puff with ears and eyes. It almost doesn't look real, like someone placed a fuzzy toy on the floor and it suddenly blinked. The amount of fluff compared to the amount of actual cat feels wildly unbalanced.

The confidence is also completely unreasonable. A smol cat will walk straight up to animals five times its size like it's the boss of the whole operation. No hesitation. No second thoughts. Just tiny paws marching forward like they've been running the household for years.

And somehow they always manage to end up in the exact center of everything. Right in the middle of the room. Right in the middle of the hallway. Right where everyone needs to walk. A little puffball planted there like it owns the place. Which, based on the attitude alone, it probably does.

One friendly stray cat showed up… and brought four unexpected surprises with her.

One day a very friendly stray cat wandered up to this family's house and decided to stay awhile. She was affectionate and clearly comfortable around people, but no one nearby claimed her. The family planned to take her to the vet just to make sure everything was okay, especially after noticing her belly looked a little round.

The morning of the appointment brought a big surprise. When they went outside to bring her to the car, four tiny newborn kittens were waiting beside her. The stray had quietly given birth overnight. A cozy little den was set up inside the home office so the new family could rest and stay safe.

Over the next few weeks the kittens grew stronger and more playful. Each one got a name: Bowie, Willy, Joey, and Jackie, who was originally called One-Eyed Jack before everyone realized she was actually a girl. Their mother, lovingly named Mama, took great care of them while the hoomans helped along the way.

When the kittens were ready, loving homes were found for each of them. Joey moved in with the narrator's aunt and quickly won over the household, even becoming friends with the family dog. One kitten stayed behind though. Jackie became the family's failed foster and still lives there today as their beloved little princess.

We all have an inner child, and something about cute cats really brings us back there. 

Everyone has an inner child. Whether they touch that part of them, feel it, or interact with it is up to the person, but it's there. It's filled with wonders, with colors and shapes that defined our childhood. Filled with memories good and bad, but all veiled by the aura of nostalgia, as if we're wearing rose colored glasses. Nostalgia is like a hypnotic state where everything looks a little better and a little brighter. There are some things that bring about this sense of nostalgia more than others. Maybe it's a familiar smell, like garlic frying in a pan, or a certain laundry detergent. Maybe it's a song that your mother used to sing to you to go to bed. Maybe it's watching Disney movies that remind us of our childhood. And maybe it's about scrolling wholesome cat memes, because something about their early internet aura makes us feel like we're kids again. 

Cats have an inner child too, we just never see if (unless you speak cat, of course). It's not always a simple thing to cling to, and some of us have childhoods and memories teeming with confusion, bereft of a sense of belonging, or feelings that we associate with our family that we don't always want to revisit. But that's the beauty of nostalgia; it helps us forget those thing, helps us feel like it's all in the past, like there's this big bubble of time, space, and protection between us and then. So, enjoy these nostalgic cat memes that make us feel like kids again. 

It's always a surprise when you adopt a kitten and actually find that they're pregnant! 

A woman sees a cat sitting on a fence outside her apartment complex. She says she looks very small, skinny, and ready to be taken in and loved. She immediately acts on this impulse, and adopts the little one. She figures the kitten must be around 4 months old, and when she takes her to the vet she realizes that the kitten is pregnant! She still wants to keep her, and she helps assist the kittens birth to her litter of five. She gets them all vet appointments to be cleaned up, microchipped, and ready for a family. She keeps one, and decides with her man to give the other four away to a good home. She always looks back on that day with wonder and serendipity, knowing that she could have decided to skip work and would never have found this wonderful cat. Read the full description of the story below, and enjoy the wholesome family. 

You can only hold onto your patience for so long before you walk out of your workplace, never to return. When workers quit on the spot, it's rarely over a single incident. Usually, there's been a pattern of managers not listening to them, customers saying anything they want to them and getting away with it, and sometimes the long hours of the job really take a toll, too. Not to mention that a lot of managers seem to think their employees have no life outside of work, and that they should be dropping everything at a moment's notice to take on someone else's shift. 

Close your eyes and imagine a place where the sun never sets, but stays at that purrfect angle for a permanent nap.

Welcome to the Promised Land of Purrfection! In this meowgical kingdom, the streets are paved with premium cardboard and the clouds are made of the softest, fluffiest cotton candy. Here, our feline overlords rule with a gentle paw and a loud purr. Every tree is a giant scratching post, and the rivers flow with fresh tuna juice and lactose-free milk.

In this land, there are no alarm clocks - only the soft mlem of a smol kitten waking you up for a snuggle. We spend our days chasing laser dots that we can actually catch and admiring the endless fields of catnip. It's a silly, cozy paradise where zoomies are the national sport and the only law is that you must provide unlimited chin scritches. It's pure, unadulterated bliss.

Once the smiling face that greeted every incoming employee, this retired security guard found a new way to make everyone smile. 

Respect your elders, kittos.

When we tell you to think of a small, European village, what's the first thing that comes to your mind? Probably a tight-knit community, a quiet and cozy main street, a farmer's market with fresh produce, and many slow-walking and slow-living senior citizens. Every small village has its own group of elders who seem to be living there forever, with generations of ancestors who built this place. It's just that sometimes, these elders are not human at all. Sometimes, the village elder is a sweet senior cat, living his best old person life.

One such Italian village gathered to celebrate Filippo, the feline senior citizen - born and raised in the very same small town. But as many cat lovers know, cats should be celebrated worldwide. So one local resident took to the interwebs and shared the wholesome news with the online cat community - Filippo is celebrating his 26th birthday! Which is old. Very, very, very old…

There's office politics and there's office Survivor remake where only one coworker tries to get someone else voted off of Job IslandThis guy is the human version of a pop‑up ad. He is not your boss the project is low on your list his knowledge is shallow but he keeps inserting himself with long dramatic messages hoping someone in charge will notice his performance. The funniest part is that the people he is trying to impress keep ghosting the entire show.

This is exactly like that childhood book Are You My Mother? Except this time it's a horde of baby penguins and one seriously smol stray cat.

Penguins and cats don't really mix. Mostly because the cats probably think, "Oh, birds! This will be a tasty meal!", and then as soon as they get closer and realize how large the penguins are, they immediately realize how wrong they were. The penguins pose no threat to the cats, but cats don't like things they can't control, and a herd of baby penguins is about the least-controllable thing in their environment. 

However, it makes for a pawsitively hissterical interaction! Our video below shows a stray cat (they say it's domestic, but we think that by 'domestic' they mean it's a normal house cat breed), introducing itself to a group of a waddle of giant baby penguins, who immediately take interest in the tiny feline and start following it around. The cat, who wasn't seeking all of this unwanted attention, keeps putting distance between itself and the penguins, but they keep following. Maybe they're interested in it, maybe they think it's their meowther, or maybe they just want to play. Who knows!

Regardless of why, this video made our day. It's the purrfect amount of wholesome shenanigans we expect from our feline friends, plus a whole lot of fluffy, giant penguin babies. What more could you ask for?

People who aren't cat people get cats all wrong. They are loving and very sweet once you get to know them, some before you even get to know them! They'll love you even if you're allergic. Here are some loving cat memes to prove it. 

This coworker is the definition of petty 

Some workers have that mentality where they want to climb the career ladder. Speed run it, in fact! They don't come into work to make friends or to waste time socializing. They have a singular goal in mind: to become the boss somehow, some way. And until they acheive that goal, they'll settle for bossing around everyone in their path!

This worker shared that their coworker is just that — a dude who they work with. He's not their boss, and they don't report to him. And yet, he's acting like a major tattle tale. 

Interestingly, though, I wonder if his petty move is just going to annoy the boss instead of doing what he wants, which is to belittle his coworker and make himself look competant.
