Anxious-Avoidant Cat Memes When Your Cat is Flipping Between Zoomies and Snuggles

Cats go through a lot of human emotions, in fact all of them. If you thought cats live a simpler life, you're sorely mistaken! Cats actually feel a lot more than humans, how else do you think they created masterpieces of music like, "Meow For Me, One Last Time," and "A Broken Heart like a Broken Cat Toy." Their poetic genius must come from somewhere, and even though we can't detect the loss and heartbreak they go through with our human eye, doesn't mean they don't feel that kind of pain.

When your cat is anxious-avoidantly attached there will be telltale signs. A hit of zoomies, followed by a surrender of cuddles and meows will tell you all you need to know. Just like in humans, cats fear intimacy and feel pulled towards love, and push it away out of fear of rejection. It's not easy being a cat in love – take it from the staff at I Can Has Cheezburger, we've had 3 cat divorces just this year!

So next time your cat sprints from your lap only to return five minutes later, eyes soft and tail twitching, remember: it’s not rejection, it’s just emotional complexity. And thanks to these memes, you can laugh your way through it — one zoomie at a time.
