"I think it's the closest you can see in the animal world to someone giving you the finger," said veterinarian Marty Becker, co-author of "Why Do Cats Always Land on Their Feet?" "That look is unique in the animal world of total disgust. ... It's just a classic." And yet that look is taking the Internet by storm.

Each month, he said, about 3.6 million unique visitors check out his site for a daily dose of the feline funnies.

After bathing 2 kittens, my husband got the bright idea to blow-dry them....needless to say, he has the scars to prove what a great idea THAT was...

My cat used to swim in our pool. I also have a picture of him allowing our small parrot sit on his head.

Tigers don't have the distaste for water that the rest of the family felidae has.

I had a white cat, snowball,totally deaf, who loved to wade in the brook in front of my house. He’d just stroll through the water and munch on the grass along the edge.
