In all seriousness and honesty, what is it with Facebook and cat posts? - ThornBird84 - 09-04-2013 05:48 PM

I have friends who love dogs. I have friends that love horses. I have friends that love cats.


I don't see many posts about dogs. I don't see many posts about horses. But I see a cat meme, post, someecard....numerous times a day. And, apparently it's a common known fact that the internet and social network is swarming with cat posts.

Why? Other animals are awesome, funny, cute. Yet, hardly anyone posts anything about any other animal. It's cats...cats....cats....All. Day.

Can someone please explain to me what it is about cats on Facebook?
And... "because cats are awesome, cute, funny," etc. is not a valid reason for that being the ONLY animal people post about. Obviously they're all of the above. But, so are many other critters.

Cats are easy to get amazing pics of. They tend to get in the craziest positions with their bodies do to being extremely flexible. It makes it easy to throw a caption on them. I even have a cat facebook. The Cat Lover. It's just something people love.
Yes dogs are cute but they can't get nowhere near in crazy positions as cats.
