The patio heats up quickly during the day, and if you want to make it through, finding a shady spot is key.

This clever cat has definitely learned that lesson over the years.

No one noticed the cat in the background when this photo was taken — but there it was, captured mid-air in a bold leap.

The timing was perfect, making it look as if the cat was soaring between the ledges like it had taken flight.

These tiny kittens are inseparable and love being close to one another.

They’ve even found a cozy — and surprisingly fun — spot to nap: right in the middle of their food bowls.

For now, the bowls are just the right size, but it won’t be long before they’ll need a bigger place to snooze.

It’s hard to say what’s more hilarious — the cat launching into the air or the human’s reaction in the background.

The woman is partially obscured by a plant, but her expression says it all: pure shock at the unexpected scene unfolding before her.

An egg carton doesn’t exactly scream comfort — especially one covered in sharp points.

But somehow, this cat doesn’t seem to mind at all.

Completely unfazed, it’s made itself right at home.

Cats are great for cuddles and photo ops, but they don’t always know when the camera’s snapping.

This one happened to yawn at just the right moment, creating an accidental yet awesome illusion.

Both the cat and the lizard have claimed the heat lamp in the lizard’s cage as their favorite warm spot.

It’s the coziest place in the house for a nap, and despite their differences, they do their best to share it peacefully.

There are actually two cats in this photo, but it might take a second glance to spot them.

You’ve got to look closely — they’re perfectly positioned to blend in and trick the eye.

We’re not sure why this cat decided to nap on the railing instead of the floor.

Sure, it keeps her out of the way and avoids the risk of being stepped on, but it also seems like a bit of a balancing act.

What if she accidentally takes a tumble?

While most cats prefer to stay indoors during the winter, this little guy is braver than most.

He’s always out patrolling the neighborhood, even when the temperature drops and the cold sets in.

The main shower was a bit too spacious for this cat, but he found his own cozy, cat-sized version right next to it.

With water already in it, he didn’t hesitate to jump right in and make himself at home.

Abercrombie & Fitch probably never realized that the perfect finishing touch for their shopping bag design was a cat’s face.

It adds a fun twist to the model’s look, and now, it makes us want to shop there even more.

The kittens are having a blast with the empty tube.

At least, we think there are two kittens in this photo — unless it’s some sort of new, extremely long robot kitten.

Reaching the water dish was quite a stretch, but this cat was determined.

After all that time spent chasing birds in the garden, she was really thirsty and wasn’t going to let a little distance stop her.

From this angle, it definitely looks like the cat is sipping from the Pepsi can, and it’s pretty hilarious.

We’re not sure if cats actually like Pepsi, but it could be an interesting experiment to try.

The only thing better than one bed is having two beds to lounge on.

This cat figured that out, and now the side-by-side beds let her stretch out comfortably with plenty of space.

The cat’s tail blends so seamlessly with the painting that it’s almost impossible to tell them apart.

It lines up perfectly, making for an impressive hiding spot and a clever move by the cat.

This goofy cat figured that if she couldn’t see her owners, they couldn’t see her either.

We’re pretty sure that’s not how it works, but hey, she doesn’t need to know that.

Introducing the world’s first hovering cat-ship, arriving from outer space on a mission for world domination.

Its demands? Cans of tuna and catnip.

Refuse, and prepare to be overwhelmed by an unstoppable force of cuteness.

It’s impressive enough that the cat managed to get on top of the door, somehow finding a way to climb up there.

But what’s even more amazing is that she then decided to settle in and take a nap right there.

You definitely don’t want to mess with this cat.

She’s convinced she’s a tiger, just like the big jungle cat next to her.

Anyone who tries to challenge that belief is likely to get a scratch for their trouble.

This goofball just got a brand-new bed, but she’s still figuring out how to use it.

First, she tried entering from the back, and then she attempted to sleep on top of it.

It’s not exactly how the bed was meant to be used, but hey, it works!

It looks like a rainbow is shooting out the end of this cat!

He’s clearly evacuating a giant streak of color from his system.

We’re guessing he’s been indulging in those edible body paints again.

There’s nothing better than lounging in the yard on a sunny summer day.

With so much to see and do, it’s the perfect spot to relax.

Watching the world from the fence has become one of the cat’s favorite pastimes.

This cat looks almost see-through!

Her dark fur lines up perfectly with her owner’s hair and forehead, creating a crazy coincidence.

There were two perfectly comfy beds available, yet this cat chose to sit on the edge of the hardwood cabinet instead.

We have no idea what this silly cat was thinking!

No one gets through this neighborhood without being noticed.

The cat is always on watch, guarding the yard from human intruders and other unwelcome guests, like mice.

When the cat was told he couldn’t sit on the keyboard anymore, he got creative.

He decided to sit on the screen instead.

After all, no one ever said anything about sitting on the screen!

This cat caught a rainbow in her ear, adding a beautiful splash of color to her gorgeous fur.

She had no idea what was going on, but the humans certainly noticed right away.

This cat was so excited to hear his owner coming home that he rushed to the windowsill to take a look.

However, he didn’t quite make it and got tangled up in the cord for the blinds along the way.

The dog came running, searching for the cat, but she was nowhere to be found.

He looked everywhere, but no matter how hard he tried, he just couldn’t track her down.

“My cat fell asleep with her claws stuck in the curtain. Didn’t really want to ruin the large amount of cuteness happening so I just left her there,” explains the owner.

Can’t really blame him for not wanting to disturb her. She looks super relaxed.

This picture couldn’t have turned out any better.

The cat decided to put on a show for the actor on the TV screen, and judging by the actor’s facial expression, it’s clear he noticed!

Here’s another cat who’s mastered the art of climbing doors.

It’s quite a leap to get up there, but that’s part of the fun.

When you’re cooped up indoors all the time, you’ve got to get creative to stay active!

All cats have whiskers, but this is the first time we’ve seen one with a full-on mustache.

It’s definitely a great look for this funny cat!

This cat has the most serious poker face we’ve ever seen — it’s downright intimidating.

We definitely wouldn’t want to try bluffing her out of a pot!

This funny woman got a pair of socks with a picture of her cat on them, and now she can do cool photo tricks like this.

Definitely money well-spent!

These cats were so hungry, they climbed right over each other to reach their food bowls.

The result?

A hilarious pile of fur and paws — but as long as they get to eat, they couldn’t care less!
