26 Vivacious Vintage Feline Photos and Posts to Put the Present on Pawse and Nuzzle Nostalgia

Many of us have a nostalgic bone inside that generates an emotional response and an "aww" whenever we encounter a reminder from the past. We can even reminisce about times before we were born and feel nostalgic vicariously. In this day and age, it's even easier because there's a plethora of digital documentation and reconstructions to help us gain an understanding of other eras.

This nostalgic tendency inspires a love for vintage aesthetics. Everything looks better vintage: clothes, furniture, or art. There's a yearning for the stains of a poster, the crumpling sound of a record, or the faded, offline hues of a T-shirt. And adding cats to this aesthetic celebration? Well, that's just too purrfect. Since vintage has this kitsch tone, fluffy felines fit beautifully into the nostalgic vibe. It's adding cutesy to cutesy and doubling the sugar. Tiny kittens and chubby chonkers - so long as they have the awwdorable fluff - they elevate the romantic style.

Here's a list we've compiled of some furrbolous photos of vintage cats for you to scroll through and sigh wholeheartedly. Here's how to do it: take a rose-painted cup from grandma - or the neighbor - and fill it with tea. Wear whatever lovely vintage you have on hand. Sit cozily on the sofa (better with a kitten cuddled on your lap), put some oldies on Spotify, and start scrolling.

Finding the changes within things that remain constant is interesting. Past: Cat owners enjoyed dressing their felines. Present: They still do, but now with elaborate costumes from Amazon and countless platforms to share the photos. Cats throughout the ages: Grumpy.

Well, here’s something we’d love to see make a comeback. If it were up to us, this basket cane would grace every catwalk of every major fashion house. It would sell like hotcakes!

Cats will cat. Cat owners will cat own.
