When you think about the associations that people have had with cats throughout time, you probably imagine Egypt… sphynxes. People used to worship cats (they totally still do, but that's beside the point). They used to build statues for cats. People of the past thought that cats are incredibly smart and that cats are majestic. Those same people from the past… did not have the internet, and that means that they never got to see cats in quite the same light that we do.
Nowadays, we still worship cats, but our first associations when we think about them are that… cats are huge derps. Ugh, cats are so ridiculous and funny and silly and totally heckin' dumb. We love them. So much. If we were to build a statue to a cat nowadays, it would have its tongue out and its ears pointing at in opposite directions and its butt flat against the ground as it tries to rub its post-litterbox poopies all over it. And it would be a glorious thing.
