“I love cats because I enjoy my home; and little by little, they become its visible soul.” — Jean Cocteau
We just cannot fully understand the mystery shrouding our feline pets. These weird creatures are probably born into this world to befuddle us with their physics-defying actions while they make us slaves to their adorable charm. All we know for sure is these cats have put even Newton’s Laws of Gravity to shame. Here are some of the cats that we found on the internet that will surely make you burst into laughter.
1. Floating cat
Don’t you hate it when you just see your cat just casually floating in the air? Well, at first glance you would be certainly surprised as it looks like this cat is hovering. However, if you look closer you would realize that this cat was just lying flat on a transparent glass table.

2. Cat busted from climbing air
The owner just busted his black cat climbing air. This is how the conversation may have gone: “Are you dangling on the air again, Robert?” “No, hooman, am just climbing this tree in front of me.” Don’t be fooled, though, as this cat was just hanging on a nearly invisible screen door that it almost looks like the cat was dangling on nothing.

3. He just wants to eat but not without gravity
Can someone turn back the gravity on? This hungry cat just wants to munch on the delicious goodies in his cat bowl. He is certainly not amused as he desperately holds on from being pulled up while his food floats right before his eyes.

4. “I could position myself however I want.”
From horizontal to vertical surfaces, this cat could tread and stand on everything as if it is nothing. This cat even looks proud as he stood on the chair’s back support in such an awkward position. He just probably wants to fish some attention from his busy owner and thinks that this is one way to do it.

5. This cat practice taboo witchcraft
Cats are sometimes portrayed as a witch’s companion and they probably know a few spells or two that would puzzle any normal humans. The cat in this photo looks like he has a spell to enable him to walk on thin air. However, in reality, he was just walking on a finely meshed screen door.

6. This is how this cat drinks his water
We sometimes think that our cats are skilled contortionists. We would seldom find them in awkward positions that we never expected to see. For instance, the cat in this photo twists his whole body to get his mouth on the water tap with only a few of his paws helping him to keep himself balanced.

7. Anti-gravikitty
You think physics is complicated? Well, cats are a singularity that no physicist could ever understand. Seeing this photo would make you think that the existence of a cat slows down every scholar and scientist from deciphering the mysteries of the world.

8. A stretched cat
Can you guess how long this cat’s body is? We sometimes see cats in a baffling perspective that makes us question whether we’re living in reality or not. In this photo, it looked like the cat’s body just melted due to extreme heat. However, it is probably because of his haircut that emphasized his surprisingly slim body.

9. The cat that visits you in your nightmares
Imagine seeing your cat hanging on your screen door while you are still half-awake on a Monday morning. You might immediately jump in surprise as you witness this confusing and freaky sight. What was more freaky about this is the cat’s smile, which is most likely going to make you have nightmares for several nights.

10. Kitten casually hanging like a bat on a curtain
Reddit user uploaded a photo on the subreddit, GlitchInTheMatrix, of a kitten hanging by its paws on the curtain. A lot of people cannot decide whether the cat was hanging or the photo was just a perfectly-timed shot of a cat falling mid-air. Although, we could not dismiss the idea that the cat was gripping its claws on the curtain to make it look like he was naturally hanging.

11. How is this even possible
Cats are capable of standing on unstable footholds but seeing this cat stand on a car handle would still surprise you. It is almost impossible especially that the cat was bigger than the car handle. It is also funny how the cat looked at the camera with a poker face like everything seems natural for him.

12. Assassin cat
When hunting for food, cats usually hide and crouch to make them unseen to their prey. With great focus and patience, they will wait for the perfect opportunity to jump for the attack. On the other hand, this weird cat climbs on walls and patiently waits for his target to appear before he pounces on it to death.

13. The legendary cat-bearing plant
“Is the cat in our backyard already ripe? Let’s pick it up before it grows up to become a derpy cat.” This cat stands on this tree in a peculiar position; he looks as if he was standing sideways. Although, with the help of his retracting claws and the thin yet sturdy tree branch, this cat was able to retain this position.

14. Hide-and-seek ninja
To avoid getting caught in a hide-and-seek game, one should hide where the eyes won’t seek. This cat understands the logic of the game and thus decides to hide from his canine playmate by dangling on the upper door casing. As the dog enters the room, he does not realize that the cat was just above him.

15. The cat in Schrödinger’s experiments
Schrodinger has perplexed many geniuses with his famous thought experiment called the Schrodinger’s Cat. He stated that inside the sealed box, the cat is simultaneously dead and alive. In this photo, it captured one box without a cat inside it whilst the reflection shows otherwise. Though we are unsure whether the photo was edited or not, it is still funny how it coincidentally showed what Schrodinger said.

16. Real-life SpiderCat
Bitten by a radioactive spider, this cat has obtained spider-like powers that let him latch into any kind of surface. To catch lizards and other wall-crawling insects, this cat would just easily climb to get them. Truth be told, we could not blame these little daredevils for their ability to climb anything as their sharp claws could help them with it.

17. “This is a comfortable position”
We just could not understand the cat’s decision-making in choosing a comfortable spot for themselves. How could this be cozy as his belly was hanging on the gap between two unparalleled platforms? Although, his face tells you that he is satisfied with how he is laying.

18. Sleeping like a boss
Cats just do not understand how logic works. Instead of lying flat on the floor or the table’s surface, this cat instead sleeps sideways as if he was glued on the wall. The owner would have just wondered if one day, he would see his cat wake up then suddenly walk on the wall like it is normal.

19. Gravity-defying cat
“This is how I walk on the cat tower, hooman, don’t judge me.” Just look at him go and grapple his claws on the rough texture of the cat tower’s platform. It almost makes it seem like this cat has a completely inversed world for himself as he treads on it normally.

20. How is this even comfortable?
When we try to sleep, we always have to find a comfortable spot to lie. Even animals do this so they could sleep soundly, except for cats. Cats are a complete mystery when it comes to the topic of comfort. Especially when you see this cat lying on the sofa with half his body dangling.

21. Just cat problems
Cats have a high sense of curiosity that normal humans could not achieve. Their curiosity enables them to be fearless and sometimes dumb. Somehow, this cat got itself stuck in between the sliding doors and who knows how he got inside there in the first place.

22. Catnip level: High
“Why walk on the ground when you can climb and dangle upside-down?” Sometimes, we just see our cats doing something like this as if they were high on catnip. Even though they can dangle like this, the question remains on why cats have to do that.

23. Reality is whatever this cat wants
This cat makes it seem like everything in the world seems wrong. Look at him with his derpy face as he touches his paws on the walls. If someone removes the chair using Photoshop, we might just see a cat walking horizontally.

24.Balance is never a problem
Cats have an insane sense of balance. This fat cat can sit still on top of a chair’s back without worrying about falling. Although you could find more impressive videos and images that show the cat’s balancing skills. Some could walk or stand on horizontal poles or even on slightly thicker wires.

25. “Long live the King!”
This photo is a real-life act of Mufasa and Scar’s scene in Lion King. Not to worry about this cat falling, though, because we have seen plenty of cats falling from greater heights and end up running scot-free as they reach the ground. It is just impressive how cats can paw-position their bodies to land safely on the ground.

26. Problem solved!
Cats have clever ways to address their problems even though it seems almost impossible to do. This curious cat wants to look outside the window, but there are no surfaces for him to stand on. However, he was smart enough to use the small ledges and use it as a foothold to enable him to peek on the blinds.

27. But then again, how?
This cat hangs on their house’s screen door, in which the screen is almost invisible to the camera. Now it seemed like the cat was crawling on air again. The owner’s face was priceless too as he was just utterly shocked by watching his cat messing with the screen door.

28. This cat’s balancing skills could get him to an animal circus
As mentioned before, cats have an unbelievable sense of balance. However, sometimes they just look so silly when they use it in such a weird setting. Just look at this grumpy cat resting while balancing on an uneven stack of boxes. Someone on Reddit even commented at the photo, “That cat’s so grumpy, even gravity doesn’t mess with it.”

29. All hail the feline overlord
This perfectly shot of a cat sitting on the car’s transparent roof makes it seem like this was a gigantic cat floating on the air. Moreover, his serious-looking face just gets you laughing uncontrollably because he looks like he is appreciating the wonderful horizon before he starts his world domination conquest.

30. Jelly cat
This cat just wants to occupy all the space on his cat tower even though it looks hard because of the unparalleled heights of each surface. However, he still found a way to occupy two spaces at once with his liquid body. Impressive as it is, in the end, you would just wondering how that cat achieved comfort on resting in such a weird position.

reddit/Stuckurface
31. Could cats sleep in any weirder position?
Apparently, this cat does. This cat has his head resting on the table lamp yet his paws are on the sofa. The rest of the body is just hanging in between the spaces. You just cannot understand why cats sleep in awkward spots or even had their bodies positioned most uncomfortably.

32. “Well, hello there, human.”
This cat condo looks like it has a secret room in one of its platforms. This cat manages to stick himself out of the hole from his cat condo and was just watching the whole room from a different perspective. Surely, you would be surprised to find a cat sticking its head out on the platform and eyeing you down like a hawk.

33. Sleepy dangler
And of course, another sleepy dangler that has no sense of comfort. How some cats could ever sleep like this remains a mystery. Although we could not blame them for feeling comfortable so, you do you, cat. Hopefully, this cat was able to sleep efficiently before falling.

34. Shot just at the right moment
A gravity-defying cat was seen floating while putting his front paws on the table counter. He needs no chairs as he could just wait for the food to be served in front of him as he perfectly sits still on the air. Although, this picture was shot at the perfect moment when the cat was jumping towards the tabletop.

35. “Haaaaalp! I’m stuck again.”
Our cats tend to get themselves stuck in ways we do not understand. Just look at this cat and wonder how he got himself in between the sliding doors. Hopefully, the owner was able to get the cat out before the cat gets himself hurt by struggling.

36. Glass doors are every cat’s enemy
It is still a mystery of how glass doors attract cats. Cats are somehow drawn to these doors, which is why these unprecedented events of them getting stuck in between could happen. Look at this cat’s scooched body as he looks like floating on the air.

37. Cat tries to climb slippery glass door
I have no idea what was the story behind this photo but the cat was desperate to climb the window. Perhaps he was trying to run away from the boy behind him, or he spotted a bird up on the roof and tries to catch it. Well, we wish you luck, cat.

38. The tower could not carry the fat cat anymore
Another perfectly shot moment! It is funny how the cat’s face was filled with regret as the tower he was sitting on just leaned. That tower may have just given up carrying his round, pompous butt all day as he waits for his owner to give him cat treats.

39. “Hmm, how do you open this?”
“Is that a bird I see outside? I gotta go to the other side,” he says as he tries to unlock their house’s sliding door. However, the owner was able to catch him red-handed before he got away. Although, we could not dismiss the thought that the clever cat might have gotten out at some point without getting caught.

40. Expert wall climber
Some cats could not climb solid walls even with their sharp claws. However, this cat found a way to claw his way up by grappling on the wooden doorframe. Well, the owner caught him doing so, but before letting the cat climb down, he snapped a photo of this ninja cat first.

Our cats are so rebellious that they could disobey the laws of reality itself. For them, gravity is just a theory and physics is just a hocus-pocus that they refuse to believe in, which is probably why they could just defy it as if it is nothing. Is this a joke that we are not too “cat” to understand? If you were both amused and surprised at these cats, make sure to share this!
