The best cats of 2020 who got us through a tough year

best cats of 2020
Thank you, cats

Whatever 2020 has thrown at us, there’s one thing that will help get us through: the existence of cats.

When we were working from home, our cat colleagues kept us company. When we had lockdown blues, cats were there to provide us comfort.

Even if you’re not a pet owner, you can still get immense joy from cats, whether in the form of stroking a feline pal you meet on a walk or just gazing at photos of other people’s kitties.

Below, we’ve recapped our favourite cats of 2020 – the ones who made us laugh, cry, and momentarily forget our troubles.

Heads up, these are non-celeb cats. If you want to look at famous people’s pets, that article is right here.

Enjoy.

And these absolutely massive kittens, for contrast

PIC FROM Kennedy News and Media (PICTURED: MARY LOPEZ HOLDING HER CAT ARCHIE) A cat lover was accused of photoshopping her pet pics - as her two 'giant' metre-long kittens already weigh more than a STONE each and make her appear tiny next to them. Mary Lopez and her husband Gab Lopez had intended to buy one ginger Norwegian Forest cat but, when the kitten's half-brother started purring around Mary's ankles, they knew they had to have both. Shadow and Archie now weigh more than one stone each and can stretch out more than one metre long from their front paws to the tip of their tails - and are still growing.

Perdita, also known as the ‘world’s worst cat’

(Picture: Mitchell County Animal Rescue) Meet Perdita, not for the faint of heart. LIKES: staring into your soul until you feel as if you may never be cheerful again; the song Cat Scratch Fever, the movie Pet Cemetery (Church is her hero), jump scares (her specialty), lurking in dark corners, being queen of her domicile, fooling shelter staff into thinking she's sick (vet agrees...she's just a jerk) DISLIKES: the color pink, kittens (yuk they are so chipper), dogs, children, the Dixie Chicks, Disney movies, Christmas and last but NOT least...HUGS. She's single and ready to be socially awkward with a socially awkward human who understands personal space. FREE ADOPTION ;) If interested please go to www.mitchellcountyanimalrescue.org to fill out an application :)
She may have been a ‘jerk’, but Perdita managed to find a home (Picture: Mitchell County Animal Rescue)

Grumpy cat Meow Meow

People Think This Angry Feline Is The New Grumpy Cat While no one will ever replace the beloved Grumpy Cat, who brought joy to the lives of animal lovers all over the internet, another kitty has caught the attention of meme-makers and cat enthusiasts. Meow Meow, a beautiful cat hailing from Taiwan, has earned the title of being one of the world?s angriest felines, and I reckon Grumpy Cat would be more than happy to pass on the baton. According to the kitty?s owner, Meow Meow expresses a disgust for the world while maintaining her own dignity, and you can?t really ask for more when it comes to moody pets.
