20 Hilarious Cat Reactions That Totally Bust The Myth About Their Coolness
Cats are such amazing creatures. They are so athletic, graceful, and noble - except when they are not.
It turns out that they can be goofballs like the rest of us. You would expect them to react to unknown things with a mix of dignity and courage, but their expressions tell a different story.
The most common cat fears are loud noises, new pets, strangers, unfamiliar objects, and leaving home. Cats are quick-thinking creatures that are always on guard.
It’s because they are both hunters and prey by nature. So when they encounter something or someone for the first time, their brain goes into overload, deliberating whether it should fight or flight.
That’s why they like squeezing into tight places. It gives them a sense of security, only one direction they need to monitor, and time to think and react if something unexpected happens.
And cats are simply adorable when something unexpected happens. Their expressions are so hilarious.
That’s why people love to take their pics and share them online. We’ve selected some of the funniest, and we know you are going to love them.
Enjoy what we have prepared for you and, please, do not try to scare your cat just to see how it would react.

Although we sometimes feel that cats have only two facial expressions - grumpy and angry – it’s not exactly true. They have plenty of facial expressions, but they are subtle.
Recent research on 6000 people in 85 countries showed that we don’t understand them. Cat owners watched brief cat videos and then judged the animals’ moods.
The average score was just under 60 percent correct. Still, 13 percent of participants did quite well, scoring 75 percent or above., and the researchers dubbed these achievers “cat whisperers.”
