Apparently the UK is on the brink of becoming a nation of cats.

Please make it stop. We need to stand up to the takeover.

Personally that bum eye and wandering over kitchen surfaces, 🤢

Help, what can we do?

ps light hearted, naturally 🤔

Oh good. Let’s hope they do a better job than the humans have.

We have five 😅 I don’t think this one is up to much bar sleeping and trying to sit on your head. We don’t think she has brain cells 🤣

Ginger girls are very rare you must worship her for the god she is.

She will get her day with the communal ginger cat brain cell once it is retrieved from behind the fridge at number 48 and resumes it journey amongst the orange kitties of the world.

My cats are all indoors, they don't bother anyone. They bring me so much joy and have got me through some really hard times. They are my best friends.

The minute I step outside there's dogs everywhere.

Tied up outside supermarkets so I have to twist to get past them.

Sat outside of cafes, slathering and begging for food.

Jumping up on me when I am trying to take a peaceful walk, ruining my clothes and making me smell like wet dog.

All whilst the owners grin at me with a terrifying smile like the monsters from the TV show From. As if I should be ecstatic to be touched by their little darlings.

Dogs are far, far more intrusive.

I feel like cat people hate humans... I am a cat person! 😅

MyKingdomForACat · 09/05/2025 15:04

No number of cats is too many cats. Big up the pussies

MabelBayleylivesinWigan · 09/05/2025 15:32

Ban the lot of ‘em! And whilst you’re at it, make cat owners pay the most tax…..
(it’s not true I run out into the garden to chase cats off my raised beds……every sodding day…..)

Hoppymclimpy · 09/05/2025 16:34

My overlord has pointed out that he already rules our street. New neighbours moved in 6 months ago with 2 mogs....my 12 year old ex stray has had to flex his furry toe beans but they've now formed an un-holy alliance.....the army has begun 😁

It’s no a secret that cats have been quietly scheming to take over the world, one living room at a time.

Once a rogue of the outdoors, now fully retired. An indoor cat through and through, living like absolute royalty. He’s got zero interest in ever going back outside. Why risk rain, cold, or effort, when you’ve got floor heating, snscks on tap, and a human servant who apologises when you’re slightly inconvenienced?

Just look at this intense stare, he’s clearly plotting something, probably running a covert feline consultancy from the comfort of a sunbeam. Two passive incomes: one from me, one from my husband. If he had LinkedIn, he’d be offering webinars titled “Silent But Supreme: How to Take Over the World Without Making a Sound” 😆🤣

Isobel201 · 09/05/2025 17:27

pfft, my cat only plays with mice and then watches them die.

CatChant · 09/05/2025 17:34

Cats make the world a nicer place.

Felines forever!

scorpiogirly · 09/05/2025 17:38

I was with you, not a cat person at all until Mister the stray came into my life...

CATS!

He actually looks like a Fred. Little old man 🤣

CATS FOR THE WIN

CurlewKate · 09/05/2025 19:27

Nothing. We can only bow down before our furry overlords…

AhBiscuits · 09/05/2025 19:32

I do love cats but feel sad about the impact on our bird population.

Joolsin · 09/05/2025 19:34

Once she gets this bandage off her leg (stoopid non-opposable thumbs), Jess will be instigating her world domination enterprise. I think I will be safe from destruction, as I am the chosen dreamie-dispenser and have the comfiest lap. Phew!

I thought girlcat was aiming for supremacy…. Now I suspect she’s just your cat’s deputy 😂
