'Inside Meows vs. Outside Meows': 21 Indoor and Outdoor Cat Memes for Cozy House Cats and Backyard Explorers

Inside meows vs. outside meows. That is the feline dilemma. Sure, there are also those cats who live somewhere in the middle. Those who beg to go outside and regret their decision five seconds later. But leaving that grey area aside, there are two classic cat lifestyles: cozy indoor comfort or chaotic outdoor adventure. 

Indoor cats be like, "Hey, look, I have a pink, fluffy bed!" While outdoor cats are like, "I sleep on the bodies of my enemies…"

No matter if your cat is a couch royal, a backyard boss, or a feline who meows at the door for no reason, they all have one thing in common: they want to rule the place. 

The indoor cat rules the house, supervising the kitchen counters, claiming every blanket, stealing your chair, and judging everyone from the tops of the furniture. They are the kings of the living room. Meanwhile, outdoor cats always come home and look like they have just returned from an important mission. They come back with a whole new family, a mysterious expression on their faces, and a lot of secret stories. Because yes, they are the felines who have the stories. They lived things. Things happened to them. And they're not the same. Maybe they just sat under a bush for 20 minutes. Maybe they explored the neighborhood, checked the fence, and came back. In any case, these cats are seasoned explorers.

And then, the indecisive cats. They are the window watchers and the door screamers. They meow desperately for you to open the door, but when you finally do it and they go outside, they realize street life is too much for them and want to come back in two minutes. Of course, they want freedom and nature, but only in small portions.   

So whether your cat is the king of coziness in your living room, an adventurous backyard explorer, or a window watcher, you'll relate to these cat memes.
