We’ve all seen an “animal shaming” meme at one point or another. The name makes the trend sound worse than it is, but it’s essentially just a picture of pet alongside a funny note describing something naughty the furry companion has done. Sometimes the pet’s actions aren’t that bad, but other times – they are totally cringeworthy!
Dogs were always the original target of the animal shaming meme. They are always getting into mischief and commanding their owners’ attention. The meme seemed like the best way to let off some steam while finding a way to laugh about the situation.
We decided to shake things up a bit, so we’ve collected a few of the “naughtiest” (and most hilarious) cats that the internet has to offer. Believe it or not, the cat memes are even better than the dog ones. Here we go!
1) Potty Trained
This is even worse than wetting the bed. I bet the owner never saw THAT coming! What a way to wake up. I would never want a wake up call quite like this, that is for sure!

2) No Joke
From the look in his eyes, you can tell he’s not joking. And that is simply horrifying.

3) Needing Attention
Yeah mum, c’mon. You should be up and ready to accept a gift of this quality. What’s wrong with you?

4) Silly Kitty
Cats really don’t like water. I mean, just look how miserable this wet kitten looks. Lesson learned.

5) Love
Lookin’ for love in all the wrong places… That’s okay, though. You do you booboo.

6) OCD

7) On The Rug
I guess that’s one way to make a statement. This cat definitely doesn’t seem apologetic about it.

8) Creeper
I would be so freaked out by this. But seriously, why don’t you just shut the door when you go?

9) Warm Welcome
I get the feeling this kitty may be a tad passive aggressive. Can you blame him? All the attention used to be his!

Fresh dead animals are bad enough. But now you are bringing us old roadkill?! That’s it, I’ve had enough of this.

Just a day in the life of a future acrobat. It’s a hard life, you know.

14) Eating Disorder
This might not be from a body image issue, but this cat definitely has a problem eating properly. Slow bites and chew your food, silly!

15) Meanie
This cat demonstrates the need for additional bullying campaigns. We aren’t reaching enough kitties, people.

16) Devious
This cat is an evil mastermind. The innocent look in the photo only makes it worse. That cat is not to be trusted!

To be fair, why’s he keep putting them there then? Come on, man!

19) Angsty
…And then there’s this one. I never realized cats and teenagers had so much in common.

Security de-paws-it? What’s that? You don’t really need it.

22) Plop
That is such a vivid image. I would hate to wake up that way. Hooray for a cat-free life.

23) EW
That look of shame though! Maybe the cat understands what’s going on after all. We can only hope.

25) Only Then
I think this cat owner has a real-life Garfield on their hands. Grouchy and orange – do you hate Mondays too??

26) So Cute
Like, that is your best feature. The way you destroy stuff and make a huge mess out of the room. Don’t even bother looking cute, just do that.

Can’t say he’s not easily entertained! As long as you have fun with whatever you do, you are living life to the fullest.

31) Just No
It happens to the best of us. Wait a minute, no it doesn’t. Ever.

33) Whatever Floats Your Boat
As long as you’re not hurting anyone, I say you do whatever makes you happy. No matter how disgusting that may be.

36) Perfect Spot
The dark marks on this cat’s face make the photo way more epic. He looks like he has raised eyebrows and a huge nose! It fits so well with the guilt he should be feeling.

37) Salad
Guess you could say this little fur ball has “expensive taste”. It’s like a salad, right? Green and everything.

38) Bless You
And bless you again in the afterlife, Grandma. May you rest in peace this time, undisturbed by our rude cat.

39) Expensive Mistake
Hopefully this little rugrat learned their lesson— and hopefully mama now keeps elastics far out of reach!

40) Sock Thief
So now you know where the missing socks go. Instead of checking behind the dryer, just follow the cat.

41) Jerk
Well, that’s just evil. Who does that? Where did this kitty learn his bad behavior?
Source:

42) That Sweet Sound
Some of us get songs stuck in our heads, but not this kitty. She just likes the sound of her barf hitting the floor. It’s the little things in life.

I have a feeling mum was not happy about this one. It’s a problem. Especially ALL THE TIME.

45) Or Sad Or Anxious Or Upset
Well, the name is definitely appropriate. Hopefully your owners try to leave you less lonely! Although it seems like you’re a little clingy.
