The Most Hilarious Tweets About Cats To Celebrate National Cat Day

This delightful holiday, which lands on October 29 every year, was founded in 2005 by Colleen Paige, a dedicated animal welfare advocate. She’s the creator of several philanthropic pet holidays, including National Dog Day and National Pet Day, making her a true hero for our four-legged friends.

National Cat Day encourages everyone to support felines in need by adopting a cat, volunteering at a shelter, or even commissioning a custom portrait of your beloved kitty. But we’re adding another idea to the list: enjoy some of the funniest tweets about cats we’ve seen on X (formerly Twitter) to mark the occasion!

So, take a break from everything else happening and revel in these purr-fectly hilarious cat tweets:
