Any cat person reading this doesnโt really need to be told this. Cats are clingy, cats are independent, and they also donโt get what personal space is. Cats are practically liquid, and you can bet theyโll make themselves fit into any spot that they want.
The result is hair everywhere, stuff getting knocked over, some scratch marks here and there, and very little respect for privacy. But our feline companions have so much charm to them that itโs hard to stop loving them, even with those things in mind. So hereโs 12 such cats that need privacy explained to them.
1. Youโre my island now, human.
The first day I got my kitten, I took a bath, she somehow managed to hop the tub and take a snooze on my shoulder. Months later she still likes to snooze in the tubโฆ Canโt get a moment aloneโฆ and I thought cats hated water

Remember when I said cats will make themselves fit in any spot they want? In case you thought that was a bit of an exaggeration, hereโs exhibit A for you. The one substance that cats will not set foot in, and this kitty still found a way around it.
2. Who needs towels when you have me?
Having emotional support when youโre showering is always great, just donโt use them as a towel. At least the cat wonโt complain about your singing. Just let them hang out a few feet from you and theyโll be content. I just hope that desk mirror doesnโt get knocked over.
3. This image has an unspeakably powerful aura.
The sheer number of things going on in this photo is a sight to behold on its own. The guyโs expression, the cats in his underwear, and the glowing eyes. Itโs equal parts cute, funny, uncomfortable and also a little bit threatening.
4. Go ahead, Iโll be right here.
My cat always sits like this when Iโm in the shower

Do any of you remember that lyric from โSomebodyโs Watching Meโ by Rockwell and MJ, where he says โWhen Iโm in the shower, Iโm afraid to wash my hair, because I might open my eyes and find someone standing thereโ? What an incredibly relatable lyric, and itโs worse when it comes to fruition.
5. None of your business, thatโs what.
This photo has that same aura as โHereโs Johnny!โ, and itโs not the slightest bit surprising that a cat, of all animals, managed to recreate it. I wonder if this is payback for all the times the owner watched their cats poop, and this one wanted to return the favor so theyโd know what itโs like.
6. โYou okay?โ
Both my fur babies were worried about me being in the bath. The cat was meowing and the dog was crying

Iโm sure someone would appreciate your pets being concerned for you like this, but itโd be pretty awkward if they kept doing this for false alarms. Hey, if something does happen to you in the bathroom, at least you can rely on your pets to doโฆsomething. Maybe train them how to call for help, just in case.
7. โWhereโs your tail?โ

He may not be able to hop in with you, but heโs sure as ever going to watch. As cats do. I hope none of his hair gets in the drain. Thatโd be an even bigger annoyance.
8. The whole squad is here.
โSup.

Knowing youโre not alone is usually uplifting, but obviously contextual. For example, Iโm not sure if toilet break is the time to remind me. Plus, cats absolutely do not tolerate people watching them poop, so thereโs some hypocrisy at play here.
9. Can you not?
โOh, those are your jeans pulled down, you say? Too bad. Theyโre a hammock for me now.โ Theyโve got a thing for timing too โ it always seems to be when people are pooping that they decide to barge in. If only we knew why.
10. Occupied, but not for pooping.

โDid you need to use this toilet? Sorry. This is our chill spot now. Just go poop in that box with the soil that you always make us use.โ
11. Itโs a miracle.
My cat likes to take baths with me.

There are several fundamental rules to cats. They will scratch on anything they can, they will sit on your lap whenever they want, they wouldnโt touch water with a ten foot pole, and they are clingy. It seems like thereโs an order of priority for those fundamentals, as this image shows.
12. Go ahead, Iโll be right here.
โI stared into the darkness, and the darkness stared back. It was my cat watching me poop, his fur all black.โ See, this is why you lock the door when youโre on the toilet.
