Once you've been dating for so long, it becomes harder and harder to break up. 

This is one of those stories you just feel inclined to follow and see what happens. The couple has been together for 4 years, but they've decided to split. It's never easy to go through a breakup, but especially hard when you share animals together. They have three cats – Tuxedo (4-years-old), Void (3-years-old), and Tabby (8 months old). His initial thought was that the older two would go with her and he'd keep the youngest. But he's really grown attached to the cats, and the thought of losing both the older cats is hurting him. The Void cat is his baby, but the Tuxedo cat is hers, but the Tuxedo and Void are also best friends. He wonders if the best place for the Void is with his older brother, or if it's with him. He isn't sure, and asks the internet about how to know who is more bonded. The Tuxedo and Void groom each other, play together, share resources, and sleep near each other. It's not easy to imagine that they'd leave each other, and he feels very stuck. Comment below what you think he should do.

There's a special place in our hearts for the specific appreciation of animal shelter volunteers. These are people who take their love for animals to the next level, and actually help care for animals in need of a home until they find one. It's true that a lot of pets usually find their forever homes in heartwarming adoption stories, such as in the Cat Distribution System way, which we love telling you about. But some pets take more time to reach their destined loving family - and this is where animal shelter volunteers come in.

After looking up cats on the internet all week, he found that the universe listened and presented him with a cat of his own… just not when or where he expected.

Be careful what you wish for, especially if it's a cat. Because, as we've learned with the Cat Distribution System, if you wish for it and you're a kind purrson, you will be delivered a cat. Probably when you least expect it, like on your way to the mechanic shop to get your car checked out.

In the middle of a livestream, Torian Strauss heard something coming from inside his car. It was none other than a tiny feral kitten, hiding underneath! He admitted in a follow-up video that he had been researching cats on the internet all of last week, and that was enough for the CDS to send one right to him.

He took the scared baby to the shelter, hoping to find her a home, but the shelter refused to take her because she was too young. With no other option, Torian decided to let fate be fate and adopt her for himself. He named her 'Miss Piggy Pampers', along with a bunch of other cute nicknames, like the purrfect 'Piggy Bologna', and others. He gave her a flea bath, bought her her own pink cat castle, and was clearly falling in love. 

There's something so wholesome about someone becoming a cat purrson in real-time, and that's exactly what you can see here. Just a guy, rescuing a cat, and then realizing that she's everything he had ever wanted.

There is something about a smiling cat that instantly makes everything feel a little lighter. Whether they are mid-nap, basking in sunlight, or just existing with that peaceful little expression, these cats bring pure cozy energy. It is the kind of content that slows you down and makes you smile without even realizing it. If you need a gentle start to your week, these happy faces have you covered.

A farm cat had undeniable meowternal instincts, stealing the neighbor's chicks to raise as her own. 

They say that animals adopt the persona of whatever creature raised them in infancy. In most cases, a kitten will be raised by its cat mom, but if a kitten is instead raised by a gaggle of chickens, you may end up with a kitty that clucks instead of meowing. Like all living things, cats are molded by their environment, and because of their purrsistent resilience, clever kitty mind, and their innate survivor mentality, cats are the biggest mimics of their environment, even if it goes against a cat's predatory nature. In most cases, cats will attack a bird, but in this case, all this kitty wanted was some feathery cuddles and beak-pecked kisses. 

The farmers' chickens raised a cat in this next tale, and because of her affinity for bird-brained antics, feather beds, and a cat tower full of clucking chicks, this farm cat grew to become a cuddle thief. This chicktomaniac cat could no longer deny her desire to be a chicken mama, and hilariously saw the chicken coop next door as the purrfect target.

When others left, Sakae Kato stayed. After the Fukushima prefecture in Japan became uninhabitable due to radiation clouds leaking from the nearby Fukushima nuclear plant, 160,000 people abandoned their homes and their pets. For more than 10 years, he rescued forgotten animals who had been left behind. At one point, Kato was caring for up to 40 cats inside his home. He said his life's mission was to take care of every last one, because if he didn't, who would?

Not all heroes wear capes, and not all angels have wings.

Sakae Kato pawsitively sacrificed everything, including his own health, after everyone else moved on. Over 160,000 people abandoned their lives in Fukushima after the surrounding area became uninhabitable due to the nuclear power plant nearby, but many were left behind. All of them had four legs, and none of them understood why they suddenly found themselves all alone. Kato couldn't handle the fact that so many beloved creatures were suddenly left alone, so he stayed behind to rescue and care for them. 

Just to make you understand the intensity of this decision, a purrfectly crucial fact is that Kato lives with no running water. He travels to a mountain spring to collect what he needs, not just for himself, but for the more than 40 cats he cares for, as well as the other animals he's collected along the way. For 10 years, he's cared for these left-behind pets, all alone. This is the true meaning of sacrifice.

This is a man who is willing to put the needs of others before himself, and not just when it's convenient for him. He changed the course of his life to protect others who can't protect themselves, and here at I Can Has Cheezburger, we will always consider him a hero.

If you thought the Cat Distribution System was only about bringing cats and kittens to their new pawrents then this story will show you a whole new face of the system.

Often when we have a story based on the Cat Distribution System to share with you it is a relatively straightforward story of a cat or kitten who is found, cared for and eventually given a furever home with their rescuer. Which is a great story in itself, but the story we have today is far grander than that.

For while it does begin with a cat who is found and cared for after being found in a sorry state, it gets a whole lot more complicated than that along the way. With familial twists and turns that will give you whiplash they are so dramatic. But that is just the way of the CDS, it does the magical and the unexpected. So settle in for a tale of cat connection, resilience and wonder.

The meowsterious lives of cats are constantly intriguing for us, mere humans. But one brave pawrent did what we all dream of doing and tracked her cat's daily activities, only to find we're fascinated by the plain existence of our feline friends - no matter what they actually do.

We're all guilty of wondering what's going on in our cats' brains during the day. What they plan and what they're up to. What thoughts they have of the things they see, and the stuff we do (and this is why we're sure they judge us, like the feline overlords that they are). Because, honestly, what do they think to themselves when they push a glass full of water off the counter? Well, one cat pawrent set to find this out - while it seems like the only purrrrroductive thing her cat seems to be doing in a day is pushing her water cup just to see what happens. So she set a 24-hour stakeout to understand what the fluff her cat is actually doing all day long?

But this was not made only to satiate her own thirst for knowledge. This pawrent made meowgic happen, and turned the entire cat data into a beautifully presented set of slides, for all cat people around the world to enjoy (and learn, probably). Hilarious things like this remind us constantly how much we love the online feline family. We're all just a bunch of cat lovers from all corners of the Earth, sharing our love for these floofy little creatures in such creative ways. We can't even begin to express how we appreciate it all.

It's a bad idea to drive a car through a flooded street. It's probably a much worse idea to drive through one filled with alligators.

You say "one more thing," and your cat immediately steps in to shut that down.

Cats don't know it's Friday, but they do know you've been on your laptop way too long. You're sitting there like "one more thing," and that's exactly when they decide it's time. Suddenly they're on the keyboard, in your face, or just planted directly in front of the screen like they've been waiting all day for this.

They commit to it too. Not a quick interruption, this is a full sit-down. Maybe they lie across your arms so you physically can't type, maybe they just block half the screen and refuse to move. You try to work around them for a bit, typing sideways, leaning over, pretending this is still purrductive. It's not.

At some point it just gets ridiculous. You're barely working, they're completely comfortable, and the whole thing feels unnecessary. They're sitting there like everything is fine, like the laptop being open is actually the problem here.

Eventually you just stop. Laptop closes, work is done whether it's finished or not, and now you're just sitting there with a cat who clearly won. No argument, no discussion. They decided it's the weekend, and that's it.
