It would be challenging to find a person whose heart doesn’t melt when they see an adorable cat. Some of their favorite places to sit (aside from your laptop) are windowsills, window frames, and balconies. They’re cozy, and they offer a great view of the world outside. But while these graceful and derpy felines are looking out, passersby are looking in.
‘Window Kitty’ (@windowkitty) is a long-running, utterly wholesome Instagram account that shares people’s submissions of cats in windows. We’ve collected some of the most heartwarming snapshots to heal your soul, and you can check them out below. Oh, and don’t forget to share these pics with your pets at home, to get their opinion.
Bored Panda reached out to the friendly creator of @windowkitty, and they were kind enough to answer our questions about why the internet loves cats so much. You'll find our full interview with them below.

One of the cool things about ‘Window Kitty’ is that you can actually send in your submissions of either your cats or the felines you spot while walking around.

All you have to do is send the curator an email with your location, as well as a link to your Instagram account, so that they can credit you properly.

In the email, the curator of ‘Window Kitty’ notes that there is a “very long queue (very, very long - possibly years (!!!))” for submissions, and that they’ll tag you if and when they share your photos.
