icanhascheezburger_feed) wrote2025-12-16 05:00 pmWinter has a way of slowing everything down, like a house cat settling in for a very long nap. The days are shorter, the pace is quieter, and even small bursts of joy feel more noticeable. That is usually when a quick boost of happiness comes in handy, even if it only lasts a few moments.
Cat memes fit perfectly into those in-between moments. They are easy, familiar, and instantly mood-lifting without asking for much in return. A quick scroll can break up the day, add a little warmth, or turn an ordinary afternoon into something slightly more fun. There is comfort in knowing that no matter the weather, there is always something silly waiting to make you smile.
Those small smiles add up over time. They make winter feel cozier instead of dull and help everyday routines feel lighter. When the season stretches on, having something simple and cheerful to check in on can keep spirits up and remind you that joy can still sneak in, one cat-filled moment at a time.

One minute this family was heading out for a normal walk, and the next they were watching neighbors attempt and fail to catch a scruffy cat who had clearly decided their yard was the place to be. When everyone else gave up and moved on, the cat stayed put. With years of fostering experience kicking in, the moment felt familiar. This wasn't panic or chaos. It was recognition.
Once inside, the transformation started fast. Food disappeared, a long nap followed, and the tension he'd been carrying seemed to drain away. A bath came next, turning a very dirty outdoor cat into a soggy, unimpressed one. But wrapped up snugly in a towel like a proper purrito, something shifted. That was the exact moment he decided these humans were his people.
There was no grand announcement, just a calm, mutual understanding. He settled in like he'd always belonged there, and the family realized they hadn't rescued a cat at all. They'd simply been assigned one, right on schedule.

Which is what makes this story all the more unbelievable and unlikely, as one of these legendary cats found itself plonked in the headquarters of a trucking company after a houseless person broke into the facility with the cat and later abandoned it there.
Yes, that is right, an origin story more convoluted and confusing than the plot to Inception. But alas, that is how this story of feline-trucker brotherhood begins and blossoms into one of the sweetest tales we have had the good fortune to share with you. So without further delay, we invite you to dive into the story of a trucker and his truck cat as they journey through the storied highways of America.

The people in the story below hear a kitten crying under their neighbor's BBQ. They instinctively go to help it. They see she's covered in flees and other things, so they immediately take her home to wash her. Despite her scratching them and putting up a fight out of fear, they get her to come to them, get her in a bath at their home, and wash her so she's clean. After all the vet checks and shots, they eventually decide to actually keep her, despite planning on giving her away.
What stole their hearts was her fierceness, her strong will, and her beautiful hazel eyes. They named her Olivia, but nicknamed her Wolfy due to her strong teeth and claws. She loves to climb all over the computer keyboard and desk while they're working, a typical cat naughty behavior. The story is so adorable and wholesome. With 2025 coming to an end, it's important to remember the wholesome moments, the good times, and the kindness of a stranger who takes in a kitten instead of leaving her under a barbeque.

ALTToday’s Featured Article is Rise of the Brave Tangled Dragons! This fandom crosses over the animated movies Rise of the Guardians, Brave, Tangled, and How to Train Your Dragon.
After its start in late 2012, the fandom may have grown in popularity due to the films’ parallels. The main crossover cast is often called “The Big Four”, while characters from other animated movies—such as Hotel Transylvania, The Lorax, and Frozen—occasionally join them.
The Big Four have no canonical interactions as a group. Still, that hasn’t hindered the manips and other fanworks that bring them together. They are frequently depicted as Guardians of Childhood and seasonal spirits, taking from Jack Frost’s canonical role as a winter spirit and Guardian of Fun in Rise of the Guardians. Prevalent ships include Jack Frost/Rapunzel, Merida/Hiccup, and more recently, Hiccup/Jack Frost. Although the fandom peaked in popularity around the mid-2010s, it continues to host new activity and fanworks.
