What do we know about Ancient Egypt? For example, that built huge pyramids, used pictograms instead of words for writing, and painted majestic and beautiful pictures of cats on the walls. Three thousand years have passed since then—and we, too, build huge buildings, use pictures instead of words... and actively share beautiful images of our beloved cats!

As you probably already guessed, today we're not talking about Ancient Egypt, skyscrapers, or emoji, but about cats. Or more precisely, we're talking about the wonderful, dedicated online community, aptly called "SupermodelCats," and a selection of its best photos for your delighted attention.

    Bored Panda already told you about this community a few years ago—and since then, not much has changed, except that there are more subscribers (now over 396K) and way more fantastic photos of numerous lovely cats. Our furry friends really do look like supermodels—and some, you must admit, are even better than others.

    Some of the great movie directors of the past said that it's nearly impossible to outplay children and animals in the frame—simply because they do not actually play, but just remain themselves. The cats shown here do not pose either—they simply regally accept the photographer's worship, allowing us to enjoy their immaculate magnificence. And then enjoy something tasty themselves too...

    "Various treats are a great way to make a cat sit quietly for some time, enough to take a couple of good shots," says Ivan Strahov, a photographer from Ukraine, whom Bored Panda asked for a comment here. "And here the specificity of cats' hunting skills is actually in our side."

    "The thing is that if a dog, having seen the 'object of the hunt,' immediately rushes into pursuit, then cats, which in the wild are prone to tracking and sneaking up on their prey, will first assess the situation for some time. Like, well, 'hypnotize' this prey. And thus give us enough time to photograph them in all their glory."

    "By the way, a flash is far from the best option here, because the peculiarities of cats' eyes, which reflect any light, will do you a huge disservice. It's better to choose the most natural light. And a natural pose, too. The more natural you take the picture, the better it will turn out. In the end, the natural grace of a cat will also do its job," Ivan Strahov notes.

    "To be honest, I myself prefer to photograph dogs more - simply out of my own personal preferences. But cats, compared to dogs, really are more like professional models. At least, they behave more naturally - even the smallest ones."
