It’s a bit weird and it doesn’t have to do with other atrocious stuff on that website, but I noticed this a lot.

Cats are basically the official animals of reddit, even more so than the doggos, they are literally everywhere and it’s getting annoying, it’s not just reddit either, but most of the social media, cat literally does nothing, looks at camera and they post it. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t have anything against cats, but why cats 24/7, why not some other animals like bears, monkes, crows, wolves, whales, dolphins, foxes, lizards etc? We have rodents here for example.

Idk what’s the reason for this but maybe I’m a bit biased because I like other animals more, but I’d like to know why is this, I’m interested.

    I think the posting of animal pictures is related to stress relief. But why it is cats specifically I am not sure. They are cute so there’s that. But not sure why cats and not dogs.
