I love this one! I have a magnet on my fridge with this picture, caption "Well S**t!" Living in the Midwest, this was hysterical to me!
I have always loved this picture of the cat standing straight up, so this is adorable!
Where are his overalls? I like the version with overalls best. Google it.
Memes and their history are always fun to talk about. But let’s be serious for a moment. Meetissai’s sculpture of the cat wearing the mask raises the very important and pertinent question of the coronavirus which, at the time of writing, is still spreading. (If you’re reading this in the future, we sincerely hope everything worked out in the end!)
According to the latest news, the coronavirus has claimed the lives of over 1,000 people, with over 42k confirmed infections across the globe, mostly in China. The illness has affected 28 territories across the globe. However, the epicenter of the virus, Wuhan, is locked down and the international community is taking steps to curb the spread as much as possible.
Been listening to the CDC. This could be the Super Flu that will be a pandemic. It has every, single symptom. Yesterday, I heard over 25,000 have died in China, U.S. has more cases, the virus lives for NINE DAYS outside the body, so how in the world could it have been controlled? Before this started, people were coming and going to China, which is amazing to me, you couldn't pay me to go to country who tortures and eats Man's Best Friend! I heard yesterday, if the virus were not contained in China, over 60% of the world's population will be affected. Think of the how many will die!
It's time to stop the heinous torture and massacre of animals, any animals, they are sentient beings. "We must fight against the spirit of unconscious cruelty with which we treat the animals. Animals suffer as much as we do. TRUE humanity does not allow us to impose such suffering on them. It is our DUTY to make the whole world recognize it. UNTIL WE EXTEND OUR CIRCLE OF COMPASSION TO ALL LIVING THINGS, HUMANITY WILL NOT FIND PEACE." - Albert Schweitzer, received the Nobel Prize for Peace, 10 - 30 - 1953

Meanwhile, the Chinese government has removed several senior officials over their handling of the coronavirus outbreak, including the party secretary and the head of the Hubei province Health Commission, the BBC reports. The local Red Cross’ deputy director also lost their job.
Did not expect to see some Gundam stuff in these pictures... Unicorn Gundam, Sinanju, the G-Fighter... I think there's the Papaguy aswell along with an SD Gundam.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN I CAN'T HAVE CHEEZBURGERS??? GIVE ME MY CHEEZBURGER!!!

Reuters spoke with Zhong Nanshan, one of the leading respiratory experts in China, about the situation. According to Zhong, the virus was hitting its peak in China in February. They were optimistic that the outbreak might be over by April.
If that’s the case, the paranoia regarding the virus should subside and we won’t be seeing any more cats wearing face masks.
I had to take another look after seeing your comment, I don’t know how I missed that.

I'm imagining this thing slapping its way down the hall
That kind of looks painful, while also adorable (I know it’s not remotely pain IRL
It probably happened when the photographer tried to take a panorama photo, but the dog was moving, hence this happened! :)

Tried to take a panoramic photo and the cat was walking through
