It’s not easy being a cat, I tell ya. Why, just look at the daily first-world tragedies that these kitties have to overcome (you may want to grab a violin for the pity party)…

So you are a cat lover who is a different breed all together — the kind who searches for the perfect feline-inspired pun to liven up their exchanges. But did you know your cat thinks you sound ridiculous? Read on to see how cats really feel about these popular puns.

1. Clawful 

Meaning: Awful, but in an endearing way.

Your cat:

“No.”

2. Paw-some

Meaning: Better than awesome; KITTY-LEVEL awesome.

Your cat:

“You’re embarrassing yourself, human.”

3. Kitten me

Meaning: What you say to your cat when she does something funny: “You’ve got to be kitten me!”

Your cat:

“Don’t do this.”

4. Meow

Meaning: A cute way to express urgency. “Let’s go to the groomer, Bootsy — right meow!”

Your cat:

“I’m so disappointed in you.”

5. Litter-ally

Meaning: Literally, but totes more adorable.

Your cat:

“That is litter-ally the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.”
