91 Cute Cats To Make Your Heart Melt

Which cat breeds are the cutest?

If you ask this question to many people, you will receive an equal number of answers. And while we firmly believe that any breed of cats can be and are cute, here are some of the most popular choices:

• Birman
• Maine Coon
• Munchkin cat
• Ragdoll
• Ragamuffin

However, there are so many unique cat breeds that it might take a lot of work to keep up. The sheer size of Maine Coon cats can be intimidating, but they are no less cute. Meanwhile, pictures of Ragdolls capture how these goofy cats do everything they can to live up to their name. So, be the judge yourself—no need to pick one breed, either. As we said, every cat can be cute in their own way.

Why are cats so cute?

We could debate for days about what makes these beautiful creatures so cute. For some, it might seem just one of nature’s ways to make itself more beautiful. Others might dig deeper in a quest to find the answer. But it’s not as simple as it might seem—apparently, each cat’s expression might have a meaning behind it. Also, their facial structure resembles that of a human baby, which, according to Konrad Lorenz, is a fundamental part of finding something “cute.”

What would be a fitting name for a cute kitten?

Choosing what to call an animal is often a throughout and personal process. There are some funny cat names around, however, there usually is a sense of seriousness when naming a pet. But for the sake of the easy-going vibe going on, here are some of the cutest pet names for cats:

• Sir Meows A Lot
• Nick Furry
• Goofy
• Ozzy Pwasborne
• Kit-Kat

Now, names like these often aren’t our initial choices. But over time, when we get to know our furry friend’s character and quirks, something called “pet name evolution” happens. And when this phenomenon occurs, your innocent little kitten, Plum, becomes a much more established and aristocratic—Lord Plumbarton Oaks.
