What Is Cat World Domination Day?

Cat World Domination Day is a quirky day that really doesn’t mean much, but it’s a fun way to spend a little more time with our cats. The day comes from their arrogant personalities, even if it’s not how they always mean to come off.

They’re great pets, but sometimes they act like they own the place, and that’s what Cat World Domination Day is all about!

Why Cats Rule the World

While cats might not rule the world in a traditional sense, in many ways, they already have us wrapped around their little paws. They live in our homes rent-free, we provide them with all their food and treats, we play with them all the time, and when you look at them, they act like they own the place!

We love our cats, but when you look at them, it’s not hard to see that they might think they own your home and everything else they lay eyes on. They’re not going to rise up and really put us in our place, but do they really need to?
