Here’s a roundup of the best pictures of cats from Japanese Twitter users.
This year, two-thousand and sixteen, included a number of unfortunate events that many folks wish would never have happened. A lot of people are throwing in the proverbial towel, willing to skip the holiday season all together if it means getting to 2017 any faster.
While there were many terrible events from this year, there were also pockets of hope, happiness and cats. Furry felines from around Japan took over the Internet again and again, which was probably their secret plan all along, so why don’t we try to end on a high note with some of the best Twitter cats from 2016?

Let’s face it, no matter what kind of year it has been, our Internet Overlords will always be there to show us the lighter side of things.

Be sure to take your own pictures of your animals or fully enjoy the ones presented above to attempt and make 2016 OK. And as always, praise the kitty rulers!
