Man spreading – dudes sitting with their legs extra wide on public transportation – it’s a thing.  Lots of people despise it.  There are websites dedicated to men sitting widely and campaigns started to stop this rude practice. It’s bad enough that men feel the need to be space hogs but I’d like to call attention to a far greater threat to our personal space: catspreading.  Catspreading is the act of a cat spreading itself out and taking up room with zero f*cks given.

I present my evidence:

How is it that a 14 pound cat can take up so much room?

Can’t do yoga now. Thanks a lot, cat!

catspreading-couch

Here’s a cat trying to dominate a couch.  There’s no doubt as to who is really in control here.

“Shush human – this bed is mine now.  Deal with it.”

catspreading-two

Seriously…how much room does one cat need? All of it.

catspreading-books

Even innocent stacks of reading material aren’t safe from catspreading.

It’s time to call attention to this epidemic.  It’s catriarchy at it’s worst and we must stop it before they completely take over houses everywhere.  I’ll be starting that petition soon.  Stop the spread of cats before it’s too late!
