You know what’s really awesome? The surprisingly high number of photos that come up when you type “awkward cat family photos” into Google Images. Like there were so many that only a fraction of them made it into this post — the ten absolute best of the best awkward of the awkwardEST. Without further ado, here they are in all their stunning glory.

A classic, there’s too much to love about this picture: the mid-90’s snowflake sweater, the exact same facial expression being shared by both pet and owner, the miniature Santa hat. But the best part of all is clearly the huge cat head floating around to the left.

A similar dramatic cat inset, only this time everyone’s wearing matching turtlenecks. #win

A man lovingly shields his beloved cat from a frightening game of laser tag. Wait, is that a mullet or a rattail?

And is this cat trying to escape? (Can you blame him?)

These eyes…so soulful. And ladies, this one’s wrapped in garland (I hope).

Um… Thank goodness for big cats!

This picture leaving you feeling super jelly? Have no fear; you too can turn your cat into the mythical creature of your dreams with this inflatable unicorn horn for cats. They also make one for adults.

Two out of the three cats in this picture are too embarrassed to even look up at the camera.

Best feline photo bomb. Ever.

And lastly, there’s these people who thought it would be a good idea to paint themselves like cats. That scowling kitten on the pregnant belly is going to give me nightmares well into the foreseeable future.

10 Most Awkward Cat Family Photos

Quite possibly the cutest images that you will see on the Internet this week, Japanese artist Hiroko Kubota recently started selling a series of custom shirts that feature kittens and adult cats peeking out of shirt pockets on a typical men’s dress shirt. These cute little furballs are hand-stitched onto the shirt making each fairly unique.

While Kubota can only create a few of these shirts at a time, she has turned a nice profit on the feline-wear.  According to the Huffington Post, Kubota sells the shirts on her Etsy store for approximately $250 to $300 per creation and is currently sold out of all designs. She also features the designs on her Flickr page if you want to check out more of the shirts.

We picked out our top 10 favorite designs and featured them below. Check out the pocket shirt cats!

As Seen on the Internets: Pocket Shirt Cats

Springing from the creative mind of San Francisco’s Jenny Parks, these killer feline-infused illustrations depict how a collection of superheroes, villains and pop culture icons would look like if they were cats. Parks got started with an adaptation of the first 11 doctors in the Doctor Who series all in cat form. She called the illustration “Doctor Mew.”

Some of her latest works include all members of the Avengers, Spider-Man, the Dark Knight, Sherlock Holmes, Harry Potter, Sam and Dean Winchester from Supernatural, Daryl Dixon from The Walking Dead and Katniss Everdeen from The Hunger Games. In addition to doing commissions, Parks also sells her work online here through Etsy, Redbubble and Pirate Corgi Studios in t-shirt, poster, button and postcard format.

What Superheroes and Villains Would Look Like As Cats

“Earth Day?” hisses Colonel Meow. “You mean Colonel Meow Day!”

Watch out Henri the Cat and Grumpy Cat! Your influence is on the wane!

Colonel Meow is the Angriest Cat on the Internet. In a few short months, he has become a rising force on the web (because Facebook is everything) while his legion of minions has mushroomed. His awesome power sells state-approved T-Shirts and playing cards.

But notoriety and trinkets are only the beginning. Colonel Meow plans world domination. In the very near future, he will not only rule the Internet, he will be the Internet.

Fear not. Beneath Colonel Meow’s terrifying visage is a just and merciful soul. But, please…just don’t feed him cheap cat food.
