Nobody knows what’s on a cat’s mind. I mean, just look at them–the tiny furballs do what they want, couldn’t care less about hoomans and their silly rules, and pretend like they’re invincible wild tigers.
Meanwhile, hoomans adore them to the end of the world, accepting their goofy, jumpy, and often unpredictable personalities. This Reddit community with 481k followers, titled “This Is My Life Meow,” is giving us an illusion that we can get into a cat’s mind and imagine what they’re thinking (or not thinking at all) and just what it feels like to be one.
“When you just accept your life as a feline!” reads the subreddit's description and oh boy, hilarity is about to ensue. Scroll down and upvote your favorite pics!

He Likes To Be Carried Around In A Paper Bag In The House So I Thought I'd Try It Outside. He Didn't Try To Jump Out And Just Relaxed, Enjoying The Sights. I've Become That Eccentric Neighbor Who Walks The Streets Clutching Her Cat In A Paper Bag
Help me. I am spending way too much time trying to figure out what name? There is no name mentioned in the OP? AAArgh.
Load More Replies...That kitty has a BAG! Shyla always takes the bags away, and it's such a waste, because she doesn't even climb in them! I'm telling you all, she is not a good soft can-opener!
Part of the clutter in my house is not picking up paper bags and breaking down boxes so one of my cats can enjoy them longer. If she wasn't a rescue cat with a name already, I would have named her English Muffin because she is my nooks and crannies kitty, loves to poke around in the corners.
Load More Replies...I'm the crazy lady who walks her cat in a baby sling. He loves it 🤣
No you're the amazing kitty mumma and you're wonderful thank you for making me smile 😃
There's a lady in my parents neighborhood in the country that walks with her dog in a pet carrier
My cat likes to be carried around the house in a box but not outside. Yet
😂😂😂 omg how I can relate to your feelings abut others imagined judgments!!! But you don’t need to stroll around the neighbourhood with a cat in a paper bag in order to get paranoid about that. Once the statement “I like cats” pops out one could also just add “and I am crazy like the Hatter”!!! Because I can sense it in their eyes.
Cat feels secure in the paper bag. Be eccentric. I used to come home from work late at night, and my 2 cats loved to go for a walk with me. No leashes.
At least you aren’t wearing a giant cat tail while you do it. My daughter has neighbors who wear a giant dog tail when they walk their dog.
You're keeping your beloved feline happy, at the end of the day. He or she loves you in return and other people with their superiority complexes over God's creations which he gifted us, well their neighter here or there, right?!?! It's just about you and furbaby!!!

Framing Our Best Picture
We previously spoke with Molly DeVoss, CFTBS, CCBC, CRM, FFCP, a certified feline training and behavior specialist who runs Cat Behavior Solutions non-profit organization, to find out more about the weird and wonderful feline minds.
“In spite of their solitary roots, cats are very social, and do bond quite deeply with their owners. They do see when we are not feeling well – emotionally or physically,” Molly said. She explained that is partially due to the break in ‘norm’ – when you are acting different than usual, the cat senses something is wrong.

The cat behavior specialist says it’s important to reassure your cat if you aren’t feeling well so that they don’t think they’ve done something bad.
"A sign of bonding is when you see your cat rubbing the side of their face against your legs, and items in your home. That area is where there are scent glands that deposit a unique smell for each cat," Molly said in our previous interview.

He Thinks He’s Being Sneaky
According to the cat behavior specialist, cats are most comfortable in environments that smell familiar; like them.
"They are basically claiming you as their own when they do it. You will also know your cat is bonded when it wants to be near you. Some cats follow their owners around from room to room and others want lap time. Even when a cat isn’t fond of touch, they can be closely bonded with their owner," Molly said.

Can you imagine people following the cat, trying to get through holes in fences, walking along the tops of walls only to find it visits several houses for snacks and by this time it is late evening.
It doesn’t mean, however, that cats bond with their owner straight away. Molly said that on average, it takes about three months for a new cat to fully settle into his new home and bond with the family.
“The history and genetics of a cat predicts how quickly they become affiliative. If a cat was raised without humans around, it will take a while for them to bond. If a cat has a trauma event involving humans in their past, they too will take longer to bond,” the cat behavior specialist explained.

Molly also said that establishing a routine as quickly as possible will help your new cat to settle in. “Providing environmental enrichment, so the cat can express its natural behaviors comfortably, will make them feel more relaxed in the home,” she concluded.

Maverick stays on my head anytime I feel bad/sick enough that I have to go to bed. He will not leave my side for anything. When I had my heart attack in November and was recouping we had to put his food and water dish on the foot of the bed so he would eat and he only went to use his box when I would go to the bathroom. I don't know what I'd do without my sweet furry bundle of pure evil!🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
