Thank goodness for cats because 2020 was a year we'd all like to forget - it was tough! And, let's be honest, 2021 hasn't started off so great either.

But no matter what is going on in the world, our fluffy, four-legged friends are always there to lift our spirits. And, come on, what is more soul-soothing than a wholesome cat post?

Cats are much more than just cute and cuddly balls of fluff. It has been proven that spending time with a cat can improve your health. Cats (and other pets) provide a calming effect on their humans and can actually help to reduce high blood pressure.

Cats can also bring heart rate levels down. Did you know that a cat's purr can help to relieve feelings of stress and anxiety?

One study revealed that owning a pet has "positive effects on human health and behavior and that in some cases, these effects are relatively long term." And let's not forget - cats are super cute too!

So, scroll down and soak in some of the healing kitty-cat vibes below. We have 50 of the most adorable cat posts around right here for you to enjoy!
