Cats are unique creatures. They tend to have selective hearing, prefer to sleep in your spot, and rarely are they impressed with anything you give them. Still, we humans do our best to showcase how much we adore our little furry friends.
And what better way to do than through a bit of selfie love? While we may adore those snapshots we will cherish forever; cats would rather we didn’t. Ever. Check out some of the most hilarious selfie-hating felines out there.
You really don’t have to wonder what this cat is thinking. He looks like he was much more interested in taking an afternoon nap atop that comfy pillow instead of having a phone shoved in his face. Can’t say that I blame him! As you were, good sir.
2) Clearly, she was tricked into showing up for this photoshoot.
You can’t just spring a selfie on a cat! This owner looks totally prepared, but her feline friend looks like she wasn’t expecting to have her picture taken AT. ALL. Look at the horror on her face!
3) In case you were wondering, this cat isn’t amused.
When there are no words to describe your annoyance, a deadpan look will just have to do. This cat looks like he would rather be at the vet’s office than forced to have his picture taken.
4) Quick, make a break for it!
This kitty is trying to muster the strength to get out of this. No amount of love will make this cat grin and bear it. He’s out of there the first chance he gets!
5) If you can’t take a hint…
When your owner doesn’t listen to your subtle clues, sometimes you have to take matters into your own paws. A quick nip to the cheek should do it!
6) This is probably not what she was going for.
When you try to take a cute pic with your cats and one is super angry and the other thinks you are a tree. Hate when that happens! At least the climbing kitty seems to be enjoying himself.
7) This cat looks like he’s planning a murder.
This cat hates everything right now! If looks could kill then this owner would be long gone by now. Seriously, he’s not in the mood for this nonsense.
If all else fails, wreck the photoshoot. This cat wasn’t up for his picture being taken, so he avoided it at all costs. Cute kitty toes, though!
9) When all you want is a cute Christmas card with your cat…
This cat is NOT going to be in the picture and you can’t make him! If that means spoiling your plans for a holiday picture together…then so be it.
10) I already told you Carol, now is not a good time!
When someone told you that it’s better to have “in the moment” shots, this probably isn’t exactly what they meant. I think we can all understand that not EVERYTHING should be remembered forever.
11) Get a kitten they said. It’ll be fun they said.
Just because you are super excited to show off your new pal, doesn’t mean your pal wants to be shown off. This kitten is putting her paw down right meow!
12) They say pets and owners start to look alike…
This duo makes the exact same face of terror when it comes to selfie time. I guess compatibility means a lot when it comes to finding the perfect pet to share your life with.
13) When your cat decides she is a diva.
Sometimes you have to accept that the selfie just isn’t about you! Check out that paw to the face. This cat definitely wants to take center stage. Ah, those baby blues are impossible to ignore.
14) When you’re mad, but you’re still cute though.
This cat may not be in the mood to have his picture taken, but he can’t hide his cuteness! That unamused expression just adds to the adorableness if you ask us. He’s not even being held against his will. Maybe he likes it more than he lets on? Or not.
15) Your cat will never care how famous you are.
That time when Taylor Swift thought she could get away with taking a selfie of her cat. This cat isn’t even going to pretend it wants to be in the picture. How many fans would die to be this cat right now?!
16) This selfie has this cat like WHOA.
This cat looks totally startled by life right now. He looks like he was just chilling out having the time of his life when his owner popped a camera in front of his face. He isn’t feeling it.
17) It appears they may have had this conversation before.
Even cats get at their wits end. We can’t help but wonder what exactly happened once the camera was put away.
18) When things go from bad to worse.
If you aren’t picking up on this cat’s body language, then you really aren’t too observant! This kitty is letting the world know that she is not about that life! This is the face of sheer terror.
19) This the face you make when you are completely freaked out.
I think this picture makes all of us wonder if this cat is really doing okay? Apparently, taking a picture is the most terrifying thing he’s experienced in all his nine lives.
20) Kisses don’t make it better.
Don’t think you can butter up this cat and make everything okay. This cat’s face says it all. He would rather be anywhere than exactly where he is right now.
This cat certainly lets it be known exactly how he feels about this moment. This is a face of total contempt! His owner better sleep with one eye open from now on!
22) Excuse me sir, kindly remove your hand!
This has to be the most awkward cat hold in the history of the world. If anybody is wondering what this cat is thinking, check out that startled look. Can’t say that I blame him!
In all fairness, this cat was totally into it–until he wasn’t. That’s just how life works with a cat, though. Am I right?
24) Clearly, this cat wasn’t ready for a close up.
Does anybody ever look good at this angle? It appears that a close up shot was this cat’s worst nightmare.
25) This doesn’t make her happy. At. All.
I’ve never seen a cat more unhappy to hug its owner! She may be hugging her with her paws, but her eyes tell the real story. She is moments away from digging those claws in a little deeper.
26) Now this is just adorable.
Who knows how many tries it took to get this shot, but it’s definitely a keeper! This kitty really knows how to work the camera. Fierce!
27) Snuggles make it better…not.
It’s as if this owner believes that if she hugs the cat tighter, then he will eventually strike a cute pose. I don’t think it’s working out so well for her…or the cat.
28) When your cat is your own personal body guard.
This picture looks more like a warning. Don’t mess with this owner or you’ll get the claw! One look at those teeth and you’ll definitely back up a few feet.
It looks like this picture may have been off to a great start until something caught this cat’s attention. Fly? Mouse? We’ll just have to wonder.
This owner may look totally chill, but her cat is freaking out! This picture must have been captured moments away from this cat making a run for it.
This cat is definitely letting it be known exactly how she feels about this. She looks absolutely uncomfortable! It doesn’t look like her owner is taking the hint, though.
32) You only THOUGHT you had a friend.
If this person had any question about where he stood with this cat–now he knows. Where is the love? Not in this selfie, that’s for sure!
This cat is going all out to show just how much she despises this entire thing. Next time this owner wants to take a selfie, she may want to leave the cat out of it.
34) This cat isn’t amused.
This shot is nothing short of comical. Check out how over it this cat is. He couldn’t possibly be more uninterested in having his picture taken.
This feline is done talking about it. If his owner can’t figure it out, then maybe a paw to the face will get the message across.
36) No amount of love can change things for this cat.
This cat looks like he’s about to lose his entire mind. I’m not sure the owner realize how much danger they are in! Get out of the way before those vicious chompers come your direction!
This is an up close look at total annoyance. The owner may be having a blast, but this cat is moments away from throwing up in her shoe for revenge.
