We all know cats are here to take our place at the top of the food chain. Just look at how they’ve destabilized our infrastructure: rather than do our jobs, we spend all our time at work watching videos of their antics, even when those antics are blatantly evil. Observe our conquerors in action, and don’t be surprised when you find yourself laughing instead of organizing a militia to take on our future rulers.
If you don’t want to face the cold, hard truth, you can always just look at these 45 ridiculously adorable kittens.
