And we like when people grade on a curve.

A solid score, but we’d give extra credit for the pure bliss.

This majestic beauty deserves those two points back for commitment to the endeavor. But we’re sure it deducted them from the human in its own rating.

We’re impressed that even though it spends time on the street the fluffy feline remains well-coiffed and its hairy trousers remain clean.

We just want to know if the cat is around from the days when it was a police station or if it’s always been in the restaurant industry.

Not everyone is pleased when a cat joins them for breakfast, so we’re not surprised this little fluffer did not want photographic evidence of the misdeed.

Is there anything better than a store or kiosk cat that you can rely on seeing every day for some scritches?

And another +10 for those markings as well.

We’d have added a point for wanting to follow us home though, not deduct.

We understand the deduction for not wanting to be taken home since it would have been much better off that way than fighting to survive on the streets.

Then again, where else are you going to be able to enjoy that kind of view?

We love cats that want attention – in fact, we don’t know how anyone can leave them behind.

And while we get that cats can sometimes be good and stay close to home, if this cat belongs to the house behind it, it still really need a collar!

We love to see this kitten enjoying the attention it feels it so richly deserves.

But we’d give extra points for purring.

And you can fully expect to get a chilly welcome from a cat whose hiding space you’ve invaded. Hisses and swipes seem like a pretty friendly greeting, all things considered.

By our math, this cat gets a solid 17/10, though it was not graded on overall cuteness and allowing the person to take its photo.

C’mon, that has to be worth something!

And this little “tripawd” gets extra points from us for being a trooper after losing a leg! 100/10 for that alone!

It’s like he’s saying “put down the camera and pay attention to me!”

And those are words we all need to hear from time to time.

Those green eyes can peer through our window any time – though we’d be tempeted to go outside for a pet every time we saw this beauty.

We would definitely have to slow our roll if we encountered this friendly cat.

Then again, we’re sure he gets all the attention he deserves.

Gallery cat is not impressed with anything at all.

We, however, are impressed with gallery cat.

Act cute, deny affection until the food is provided, then give the human a nice prize of being allowed to pet you.

This is one savvy cat.

Oh, right, because the resident cat is the boss.

At least this kitten got a fair rating.

But we’re not entirely sure about its shaking skills, so maybe we’ll just make that a whiskey, neat.

While he’s scored for purrs and pose, we’d like to add an extra 100 points for the look of utter disdain.

Extra points for glare of contempt and not looking like it’s even thinking about getting closer for a pet.

There are not only squirrels up there, but it gets the height advantage over all humans.

This beautiful cat seems to enjoy a few pets but prefers leaving its mark (or “cat glitter,” our new favorite term for fur) on neighborhood cars.

This fluffster looks like it fully expects benefits such as this.

This ginger tomcat is showing us just how it’s done. And he seems like a benevolent king.

Then again, what’s a mere point knocked off a score of infinity?

But judging by the score, it appears this beautiful specimen has enough fluff to keep everyone warm.

Let’s face it, we’re powerless in the face of something like this. Your boss will understand.

Seems fair. This is definitely an angry demand along the likes of “pet me, you fool!”

Caesar was murdered nearby, but now it’s just mice and birds that are in for a bad day if they wander near it.

How could you ever stop petting if you were getting this much appreciation?!

Then again, we all need a break from our desks sometimes.

He’s taking a nap right now, but appears to be the temple’s greeter. Maybe he’s training that kitten to do the same but fell asleep on the job.

And it’s never the dogs.

He’s just preheating the oven for you.

It’s got to be hard to leave this sweet face behind after vacation.

Hey, some cats like it up there!

But is stealing from the dog really that hard?

We could certainly be convinced to travel by train if this guy was selling tickets.

But it does look well cared for and is wearing a collar, so we know it’s got a dry place somewhere.

This guy got himself out of the tree, but didn’t quite do it with the grace required to earn full points.

You can almost hear it hissing “no, we don’t sell that.”

We tried that with a cat once – it didn’t go well. 10/10 for owner perserverance on this one.

Or maybe he’s just sticking his tongue out for the photo op.

We agree with the full points on beauty, but we are going to add a few of our own for the unfair score of its character.

400 points to this cat for putting up with the insult and posing for a photo anyway.

We just hope it’s a little safer next time.

Our first thought would be to take it home – and we’re probably not the only one to have that idea.

And while she probably wouldn’t love this photo of herself, we sure do.

You can protest all you like, but cats live where they want. And we’d be happy to have this sweet little buddy in our home.

We can understand a point deduction for something as objective as number of leaflets delivered, but we’d also like to deduct points from the human for unreasonable expectations.

There’s enough of this beautiful creature to go around.

We hope she gets a tax write-off for that.

We like honesty in creatures, whether human or animal.

But that doesn’t mean he has to smile about it.

It looks like it would give us a really good tour.

But we can’t help but want to run our hands through that fur anyway!

In fact, it looks pretty annoyed they were there in the first place.

Extra point for caring not even a little bit about affection from strangers.

Frankly, any cat that agrees to be pet should start out with an above-perfect score.

At least this beautiful fella made up some points on softness.

We’d like to grant him extra credit for choice of abode as well.

Extra points for looking right into the camera and making the inability to pet her all the more sad.

We agree with the extra credit for attitude here.

Some cats just need a minute to warm up to you. Others sniff you out and simply reject you.

That’s a lot of cuteness in one place, so we think that score is a bit low.

We just hope this person doesn’t mind a little cat glitter from this cutie next time they go for a spin.

From the photo on the left, we gather this human did not have treats. And we can only imagine what HIS score looks like as a result.

This sleepy feline looks like there’d be hell to pay if it wasn’t for the window between it and the disturber in question.

Friendly, pretty, soft – what more do humans want?!

We bet that bed is a lot more comfortable than the street!

But this fluffypuss can be found only in Athens.

Sadly, we’re not sure in which swanky restaurant.

We’ll see what he thinks about that 4/10 before we make our own judgement.

And we understand why since it’s so gorgeous. We’d let it in our yard, house, office, wherever!

If she’s getting fed, we assume she gives this human a passing score as well.
