7 Cats Having an Existential Crisis That Will Make You Feel Better About Your Week

Claire Biggerstaff
This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Davidson chapter.

We’ve all been there. The moment when you find yourself staring off into the vast, unknown reaches of the universe. You think to yourself: Who am I? What am I? Do I have anything good in my refrigerator? Thankfully, this is an experience shared by all living creatures – especially cats. So sit back, sip your coffee, and remember that it happens to everybody. 

1. This cat being thrown the ultimate question.

 

2. The cat pondering what life outside his neutral, sensibly styled home looks like. 

 

3. The cat wondering how and why he became the pet, and not the dumb human. 

 

4. This free-word cat experiencing a tough bout of writer’s block. 

 

5. This kitten wondering how his life devolved into him being stuck in a Pringles can. 

 

 

6. A fancy cat realizing that there is no more Fancy Feast in the cabinet. 

 

7. And this cat agonizing over the true meaning of life.
