20 Animals Interrupting Wildlife Photographers in the Cutest Ways Pawssible: Big Cats Edition

The useful part

You know how you, as a cat person, always say you want to make friends with a big cat? As cat people, we all have one thing in common, and that is that we love all cats. From itty bitty kitties, to all the underrated small wild cats, to, of course, the big cats.

How it works

• Sure, it's not the same as being a zoo worker, or a vet, or a shelter worker, but we get to write about cute cats for a living.
• That doesn't mean that I'm not jealous of people actively getting to work with animals every single day, but I have comforted myself by telling myself that I don't have the skills to be all those other things.
• Just as much as we love regular cats, we love lions and cheetahs and tigers and pumas and all the rest of them.
• The same way that we want to pet every single stray cat that we come across, we also want to pet every big cat that we have ever seen.
• I've been here for years, writing about cats day in and day out, and I have not gotten sick of it yet.

Details worth keeping

We spend basically all our time cooing at big cats. Personally, us ICHC writers, are kind of lucky when it comes to our jobs. If there is one job that I fantasize about sometimes, it's this one.
