21 Relatable Memes of Cats Officially Calling in “Not Adulting” Today

Adulting? Absolutely not. Cats have proven for centuries that responsibility is overrated and naps are the true path to happiness. They wake up, stretch dramatically, stare into the void for five minutes, and decide the day's already too much. Bills, chores, social interaction? Hard pass.

Every feline is a tiny protest against adulthood. Sleeping sixteen hours a day, ignoring anything that requires effort, and demanding snacks like they're royalty. They don't fill out forms or answer emails; they just blink slowly and remind you that they're above all that nonsense. Watching them lounge like rent isn't due tomorrow makes you wonder if they've cracked the code to life.

Cats are the ultimate icons of "I don't wanna." They live by one rule: if it looks like work, walk away and take a nap instead. Maybe they're onto something because no one does avoidance, relaxation, or complete indifference quite like a cat. They're not lazy; they're just highly efficient at not adulting.

When something goes wrong, it’s officially time to grab an actual adult because we are definitely not adult enough for this situation.

Mistakes were made, responsibilities were accepted, and now we regret everything. Can we please hit the rewind button and go back to childhood? Naps and snacks sound way better.

We might be legally adults, but let’s be honest. That doesn’t mean we actually know what we’re doing. We’re just tall children with bills and constant confusion.
