Fortunately, I was able to stop looking, or my Internet days would have been over.
But it was pretty compelling, I will give it that much. :) posted by Malor at 7:16 AM on January 14
I can't stop looking! You should have warned us.
In some ways, I am still looking. What has been seen cannot be unseen has its good side. posted by GenjiandProust at 7:21 AM on January 14 [1 favorite]
I have no idea how these people got their cats in GIFs or why. posted by Happy Dave at 7:26 AM on January 14 [4 favorites]
This is perfect for a long S(C)aturday shift at the library.
I especially like the captions:
"Drunk cat in a shoe box falling touchingly"
"Rebel black and white cat"
"Outdoor interracial cat fight"
I also like that whoever is writing these considers orange cats to be "red hair." posted by broadway bill at 7:29 AM on January 14 [1 favorite]

People think it's weird I describe my cat as orange, rather than ginger. So there's that.
Anyhoo, that was a perfect Saturday tonic. Thanks! posted by Lleyam at 7:42 AM on January 14
Alternate caption for so very many of these: "I meant to do that." posted by Infinity_8 at 7:44 AM on January 14 [4 favorites]
I like the one where the cat pats the dog (poodle?) on the face as if to say "hey, hey, hey you, hey!" and the dog looks at him for a couple seconds. Then YOINK! "gotcha!" then the cat flails his arms back in surprise when the dog goes after him.
Cats. So stupid, and yet so devious. Truly they are quantum creatures. posted by symbioid at 7:46 AM on January 14
"hi speed stairs compatible cat" is the most beautiful phrase in the English language, and the GIF itself is only made better by the fact that the cat looks like a sad Wilford Brimley being pushed along on top of a centipede. posted by Inspector.Gadget at 7:59 AM on January 14 [6 favorites]
Roomba Cat has eaten my soul. The cuteness wars are officially over. posted by mintcake! at 8:09 AM on January 14

The black cat shutting the white cat into the box is my favorite. It perfectly illustrates how cats are assholes and only get away with it by being cute. posted by Foosnark at 8:36 AM on January 14

Man I have seen I don't know how many cute/hilarious cats on the web. And yet this... I was laughing so hard my girlfriend came in to ask what was wrong, then she started cracking up too. I haven't laughed that hard or that long in a while. Thanks, the rest of the day is going to be great. posted by andromache at 9:00 AM on January 14
The best part was, separating "The Cutest Cat GIF Ever" and "Cat Opening a Door With His Little Cat Hand Infinite Loop," the in-line ad for The Economist. posted by bicyclefish at 10:00 AM on January 14
As I was turning onto my street today, I had to wait in my car with my turn signal blinking while a skinny little cat ran along the crosswalk. We made eye contact. It was adorable and I would've waited forever. posted by Houyhnhnm at 11:15 AM on January 14

BitterOldPunk: "I kept expecting to see my favorite one there, but alas, it was not.
I am somewhat unwell right now. Roughly every hour since you posted that gif, I've been flipping over to it and almost-but-not-quite falling off my chair from a laughing-coughing fit. It's getting a bit annoying, but I can't stop.
I hope the cat wasn't hurt though posted by vanar sena at 4:49 PM on January 14
