Cats are some of the most curious animals. A cat will not hesitate to check out anything that doesn’t belong. Whether it’s a serpent slithering away into the undergrowth or a shoelace hanging out of the closet, your feline friend will be just as happy to investigate it.
Cats are also the funniest pets ever to be domesticated by man. These creatures typically spend up to two-thirds of their time napping, usually in the craziest places. And during their waking hours, cats will resort to all manner of mischief that leaves you wondering whether you’re raising a clown. The animals may climb up the highest trees as if frantically escaping potential predators, only to spring down a second later (always landing on their knees, of course). They may also paw in the air as though they’re fighting ghosts. And once they’ve eaten to their fill, cats may curl up in the narrowest spots in the house and ignore you the whole time, until hunger drives him out again.
Due to their hilarious personalities, it’s not surprising that cats are the inspiration behind thousands of funny jokes, puns, and memes. Here’s a definitive collection of 80 purr-fect cat jokes to help you fall in love with your adorable furball over again.
