‘If I Fits I Sits’ Is These Pets’ Personal Mantra

Pets have this weird affliction where they're never quite sure of how big they are. It's like they assume that they're still the same size they were as puppies and kittens, and the world has progressively just been getting smaller. It's adorable until your 200-pound Great Dane jumps into your lap.

Here are some pets that won't take no for an answer when choosing their personal chill spots. Do they fit? Not always. But will they sit? There's not a force on Earth that can stop them.

This cat is recycling in the cutest way possible. It's turning the remnants of a takeout dinner into its personal abode. It doesn't matter if it still smells like food, that's just the natural aroma of the place.

I respect the heck out of these NYC pet owners and their pets that are just going along with it. Also, shoutout to the dude literally standing there with a massive husky, if you're putting in that much effort you deserve it.

Um, okay, I understand that cats do the whole "if I fits I sits" thing, and it ends up being in random spots, but come on. Did they have to do it in trees like they're aliens or cult followers? I feel like I'm being watched.

This raccoon saw that this cookie jar was a raccoon and thought that it could do a better job. To be fair, it would definitely hold your cookies for you, you just wouldn't get them back.

This is the kind of cupholder that would make the morning commute oh-so-much better. There's nothing greater than a cat happily staring up at you while you drive. I'd be fine holding my mug and spilling coffee all over myself to make this little sweetie happy.

Dude, little kitty man, are you doing alright? Is this some special new-age food guarding, where you just sort of hover near the food, not eating it, but sending out alpha particle brain waves telling others not to touch it?

Let this cat have the sink. There's nothing I would like more than for this kitty to comfortably have a sink all to itself. Did you really need to wash your hands after you used the bathroom? It's not like many guys do anyway.

What an elegant way to absolutely not fit in anything but sit on it anyway. This is the kind of drive and determination that builds nations. Or, at least, strange-looking pet beds.

Cats are known to commandeer anything that you bring home for their own sitting needs. Did I say "needs"? I meant "wants," because cats are the superior species to humans and what they say always goes.

If you had the audacity to offer this cat some pizza and beer in exchange for them helping you move on a Saturday, then this sweetie will politely inform you of how disrespectful that is and that they have no use for your human pizza. But they will, however, take your most comfortable boxes.

If one cat does it, then all cats do it. Even if said cats are massive beasts that could eat us all without even trying. Looks like sitting in weird places is a trait that runs in the family all the way to the deadly giant cousins.
