The subreddit wrote in their description: "Cats that are swaddled to look like little cute babushkas." Many posts are submitted by users that dressed their own cats up. Some are just taken from the internet. It's quite funny to see how easily a cat is turned into an old lady.

The word Babushka means an old Russian lady or grandmother. It can also refer to Russian dolls that are associated with Russian culture. The wooden dolls are placed inside one another and are a great souvenir to bring back if you ever decide to visit the country. The word can also mean a type of scarf or the way you would wear it—tied below the chin. As often seen worn like that by old Russian ladies. Babushkas are known on the internet as sweet, but stern ladies, that will feed you, whether you like it or not.

That is possibly the most interesting expression I've ever seen on a cat.
