There's no sense in denying cats can be a little sassy from time to time, simply because they're not afraid to make it totally obvious they hate something. Costumes? Check. Reindeer antlers? Double check. Their 'tude doesn't make them any less adorable, though! It's sort of charming, actually.

Meet The Politest Cat On The Internet

Dan Seitz — Sat, 15 Dec 2012 18:00:15 +0000

Cats have a reputation for being rude and mean, and in some cases it’s not entirely undeserved. In other cases, though, there are cats who demonstrate just the opposite. Like this one, who politely taps a human on the arm, and keeps it up until he gets some scratches. Manners really will get you everywhere. [...]

Breakfast, as they say, is the most important meal of the day. So why not start things off with a nice, healthy cat omelet? And look — two of them have already climbed into a frying pan for you.

Emerald Catron — Tue, 25 Sep 2012 20:20:54 +0000

You guys, Grumpy Cat is definitely real. And she plays. Sort of. When Grumpy Cat "plays" she mostly just scowls at the camera and then hides under things, but still. Grumpy Cat became an internet sensation pretty much as soon as people saw her grumpy face on Reddit. Here's some video and some excellent memes 'Tard' (short for Tartar Sauce) the cat has inspired.

Hemmi-the six toed kitten, world famous for being the only kitten known to man that will fetch like a dog, over and over again, was adopted recently from Lubbock Animal Services. He's grown a bunch, sleeps a lot, eats like a little pig... but the one thing he hasn't done?..He hasn't been neutered.
