We Asked Cats On Catnip Fans To Share Photos Of Their Cats And They Delivered The BEST
Some cat posts are cute, and some turn into a full-on parade of whiskers, paws, and personality. This one is all about the Cats On Catnip fans who answered the call and flooded in with photos of their own cats, from sleepy snugglers to dramatic little divas.
The result is a gallery packed with rescue stories, goofy poses, fluffy chaos, and a few especially sweet tributes along the way. If you came here for the best cat photos on the internet, these fans brought plenty of proof.
Read on for the purr-fect lineup.
From First Hugs to a Lifetime of Love.
"This is the very first photo I took of my cat when we met her at a cabin in the woods. She came right up to us and hugged my friend's leg. I took her home, and we've been very happy ever since."

"Tee Tee and His Daddy."
There's a ton of spunk to be had here.

"Our Beautiful One-Eyed Princess, Daisy!"
Isn't she purr-fect?

Some of these cats are clearly running the whole household.
SO FLOOFY
"This is Harley Quinn. She loves treats, naps, and showing everyone her luxurious floof."

SURPRISE!
"This is Misty as a kitten when we first adopted her, and she’s perpetually surprised and pleasantly playful."

Typical Purr-sonality for a Gray Kitty.
"As you can see, we have a very loving relationship."

"Our Beloved Humbug. 21 This Year. An Absolutely Fantastic Cat!"
21 years of love and cat cuddles is 21 years well spent.

"My Beauty, Sash. She Has Grown a Lot in a Year."
What a difference a year can make!

Then the rescue stories start showing up, and they hit right in the heart.
"This is Chimmy and Koko. Very Sweet and Adorable Cats."
Playful pals!

"This is My Rescue, Charlie, After Enjoying Catnip."
After catnip—AKA the best time to photograph a kitty.

"Nala, We Recently Rescued Her & Gave Her a New Loving Life."
Rescue cats provide so much love for us, don't they?

Kira, You're an Absolute Sweetheart.
"If picked, Kira pledges to do the best she can to uphold the honor of the feature, especially if treats are involved."

"My Beautiful Maisie, 'Helping' Me Fold Towels."
Kitties are the best helpers.

A few of these photos are pure comedy, and the cats know it.
Also, if you can’t resist sweet cat energy, these adorable cats will melt you, no matter how hard you try.
Three Cheers for Pye!
"Meet Pye, my foster cat. He is 7 years old. He loves cuddles, bird watching, and snacks. He was sick, but he is getting stronger every day! I love him."

"My New Polydactyl, Dax... A Handsome Guy."
More paw to love!

A Purr-fect Pair!
"My two kittens, Artemis and Ella, sisters."

The Best Kind of BFF? A Cat BFF.
"My daughter giving her 'bestie' sweet kisses!"

"This is My Gorgeous Silly Girl. Her Name is Scilla."
A cat you can't look away from!

And just when it feels like the gallery cannot get any sweeter, the baby photos arrive.
A Cat's Love is Forever.
"This is my boyfriend's cat, Lilly. She passed a few weeks ago. We miss her. 💔"

Is There Anything Sweeter Than Kitties and Babies? Nope.
"My Tippy being a protective fur brother."

Rest in Peace, Sweet Baby.
"My big boy loved a good nap in the sink. He's resting easy over the rainbow bridge now; may he have plenty of sinks to sleep in.
He passed away from a baby King Brown bite. For those who don't know, baby snakes can't control their venom, so he released a lethal dose. Although my baby passed, he lived a happy and adventurous life—one definitely worth sharing."

Birthday Angel
"Penelope on her 2nd birthday! Party dress and all."

"Just Took This One About 15 Minutes Ago. My Little Pretzel Kitty, Zoey."
Purr-fection.

She May Not Be Pleased, But She Probably Preferred to Be Clean!
"My cat's very first bath. She tore that bathroom UP! She had gotten into some sewage on one of her outings, and as an indoor cat, she NEEDED a bath."
Sometimes humans have to do the hard work!

These fans really did deliver the best of the best.
