24 Photos Through History Prove Cats Will Never Get Tired Of Destroying Stuff

If you ever get frustrated watching your cat demolish your furniture or belongings, don't worry; you are not alone. Every cat owner has been in the same situation.

However, the anger you feel lasts only for three seconds. It will pass more quickly than you can imagine. As Dr. Susan David, an emotional agility expert, states, "Emotions are like weather; they change quickly, and it’s important to let them pass." You might find that your irritation fades as quickly as it arose.

As cat lovers, we know what we're talking about because we have experienced the same. We also understand that you are aware of this, but we simply wanted to remind you how quickly you forget why you were mad at your cat when you look into its eyes.

Cats are masters of manipulation. But who wouldn't adore these silly creatures despite their curious and mischievous nature? Dr. John Gottman, a renowned marriage researcher, notes, "The key to a happy relationship is to nurture the positive and minimize the negative," which certainly applies to our relationships with our feline friends.

Even history proves their childish temperament. To illustrate this point, we have prepared a print from the British Museum from the 19th century showing cats in their true light.

But we must credit the woman who inspired us to create this amusing post. Her insights into feline behavior can be found on her professional website.

On her site, Dr. Susan David shares why she adores cats, her love for feline art, photography, and history, and her pride in being a cat owner. Please enjoy the well-known silliness of our furry friends below.

Despite their silliness and undying desire to redecorate our living space, cats will always be among our favorite pets. Today, even history tells us that cats will always be the same, but we probably already knew that.

According to a national pet owners survey, there are about 94 million home cats in the US. That number speaks for itself about how much we love our cats.

We could say that love is mutual, but who can claim that for sure when it comes to cats? Hug your cat, and don't get mad at her when her curiosity gets the better of her; always remember that it's not the first time or the last time.
