Destress with Cat Dad Therapy Featuring a Few Famous Cat Dads

Is it possible that the world needs more stories about celebrity Cat Dads right now? Well of course we do! Call it Cat Dad therapy.

In a stressful and cruel world, seeing men showing their gentle side gives us a lot more faith in humanity. We want a world where everyone shows much more kindness and love to each other, cats, and animals in general.

Old stereotypes that men don’t love cats are fading fast; and we think that’s pawsome! Cats are amazing companions for anyone, and it seems more men are openly discovering it. Of course, they’re also discovering that people love seeing them show love for cats. Have you seen Instagram lately? Cat Dads everywhere! It’s pawsitively a Cat Dad Revolution. We previously shared a story about a documentary called Cat Daddies featuring stories from across America.

Many men have discovered that simply sharing one picture with their cat results in a sudden spike in interest, often with viral reactions. From that point, we often see pages suddenly taken over by the cat content as viewers demand more and more. 

Of course, cats have long ruled the internet, but paired with their Cat Dad; it’s the best of both worlds. So here’s a roundup of just a few cat dads for your consideration. If it helps you destress and have just a whisker more faith in humanity, we’ve achieved our goal.
