The 100 Most Important Cat Pictures of all-time (The best post Buzzfeed has ever done)

96.



81

Why It Matters: Because SOMETIMES, life is actually a balloon that is set before us to pop, and we totally nail it.



76

Why It Matters: Because love is our true destiny.



35. The Reading

Why It Matters: Honestly, because a world in which it is sometimes the case that children learn to read by reading to shelter cats is a world that is quite possibly worth keeping around.



1. The Baby and the Swing

Why It Matters: Because when all is said and done on the other side of an infinite expanse of time, if even one of those moments was a cat, sitting with a baby in a swing, there is a chance that everything is going to be alright.

These wonderful patient cats sharing love and knowing they are doing it. I melt completely when my cat reaches out and touches my cheek.

87. Disaffected Kitten

Why It Matters: Because the world is a sad and troubling and often extremely disappointing place and we may as well learn that as early as possible in life.

“It was in his nature to do it. The doctor says there are such boys springing up amongst us—boys of a sort unknown in the last generation—the outcome of new views of life. They seem to see all its terrors before they are old enough to have staying power to resist them. He says it is the beginning of the coming universal wish not to live.”
- Thomas Hardy, basically talking about this kitten, in Jude the Obscure
