This is your "Live, Laugh, Love" moment, but instead, with kittens, fluffy felines, and all the cute faces your cat-loving soul could pawssibly desire.

Your mom probably had a "Live, Laugh, Love" sign somewhere in the house when you were growing up. It was probably in the kitchen. It was her way of reminding herself that, amidst cleaning up after you and your siblings, working, and taking care of you, she should still find time to experience joy. Or, better yet, to find the joy in the moments of her daily life.

Now, you'll never catch us with one of those signs within a 5-mile radius of our house. But, we do share the same sentiment: that we all need something that brings us bliss throughout the meownotony of daily life, even when you're paws-deep in it all. For us, it's cats. Specifically heartwarming pictures of felines that bring us a soft moment of gentleness and joy. We can furget all of our problems for 5 minutes and get lost in their adorable feline faces that keep us feeling hopeful and happy.

We definitely won't tell you to live, laugh and love. But, we will tell you that these pictures below are the break you didn't know you needed. Whether you're stuck in the office or winding down before bed, you deserve to feel a spark of joy and pawsitivity to help you get through this crazy thing we call life.

As millennials, we were taught that stillness is equatable to laziness. It's taken us a long time to unlearn that. It's okay so sit still and simply enjoy something. You don't have to be prrroductive all the time. In fact, it's impawssible. At one point or another, you will burn out, and you will be forced to take a break. So, why not stop before you get there and make the whole process a little bit nicer?
