People Are Sharing The Best Unexpected Encounters With Cats And They Are Hilarious

In this post, we would like to introduce you to a Facebook group called catspotting. This group is a place to share photos and videos when you unexpectedly encounter a cat.

“Cats are elusive and have lots of attitudes, so the scenarios you’ll find them in are always really interesting,” Ruby Black, the creator of the Catspotting Facebook group, told Bored Panda.

Black started the online community in 2014. The group has had many crazy and weird encounters with cats throughout the years. “We encourage members to share a bit of the story with their spot, like the circumstances surrounding how, when, and where,” Black explained.

The more unique or interesting the spot is, the more likely it is to go viral. “Most of our viral posts have been either extraordinarily silly (cats with wild expressions or in really silly places or positions) or really, really unique (one of our most popular posts was a beautiful photo of a cat standing triumphantly on top of a huge sand dune in the middle of the desert),” Black explained.

“Initially, it was set to public but there were lots of people who would try to spam and troll us with photos of dead cats and porn and other gross stuff,” Black explained. “It was easier and [required] less manpower to go private than to keep trying to weed out the trolls all the time.”

#2 My Chest, Not My Cat! Spotted This Beautiful Big Guy In My Dad’s Garden A Few Days Ago

She said that the members of the group are cat lovers who are crazy about cats and just love everything about these majestic animals. “In our member requests, we ask people to answer the question ‘What do you love about cats?’ and 99% of answers are ‘Everything!’ and ‘Toe beans!'”

#3 Spotted In The Building In Front Of My Job!

“I never really intended for the group to get this big,” she said. “I created it years ago as just a thing for me and my friends because I kept seeing cute cats and didn’t have [anywhere to share the encounters]. I was a member of Dogspotting but I didn’t really like the way that they did their admin and some of their rules were a bit weird so I figured I would make my own version with cats and it just blew up immediately.”

#4 Took This Photo Of The Most Cuddly Lil Ginger In The Middle Of A Head Shake While It Wouldn’t Stop Purring, Such A Majestic, Graceful Beauty

Now, Black is really proud of how many wonderful people are in the group. She is so happy as it can make her and everyone happy. “We’ve had heaps of members say that seeing fun spots brightens their day. I love the group a lot.”
