You might have other things to do this Wednesday, but once you start looking at these little faces, you'll understand your guests completely. Just one more kitten, and then we can get back to whatever we were talking about. Oh, you were saying you are moving to another country? Wait, I think the kitty is coming out.
Let's pause all major life updates until everyone sees these kittens. Consider this your weekly visit. Get comfortable, enjoy the softness and feel free to lose your place on the couch. We can catch up about your week in a minute.
Visiting a friend with a kitten has its own etiquette. You arrive, say hello to your friend, then ask where the cat is. The kitten is all that matters now. So you crouch in an uncomfortable position (you don't mind), extend one finger, and wait for the kitty to accept you. Have you made a good first impression? That tiny sniff will soon define that.
Even the conversation starts orbiting the kitten. Your friend is halfway through a story when everyone turns to watch a paw emerge from beneath the table. Nobody asks your friend what happened next. And your friend was watching the kitty, too. The story can wait. Paying close attention to the paws is urgent now.
Having a kitten must make entertaining easier. Everyone is willing to sit quietly and wait for him to do literally anything. And it's still the best plan ever. Zero effort from the host, but entertainment is guaranteed. The host didn't have to cook anything for the guests or prepare something special. The special event is the kitty. That's what everyone came here for.
AND if you don't have friends with kitties, at least you have kitten memes. Scroll down to enjoy feline silliness!
