For us humans, 2020 has been a bleak year filled with devastation, sorrow and existential dread.
But cats, collectively as a species, took the red pill long ago, seeing though the Matrix at the mess that this world has always been.
So, in honor of News Year’s Eve 2020 — a day in which “Jumanji” trended on Twitter with its users begging for humanity to utter the word at midnight so we can “end this year’s game” — here are 24 tweets about cats who, perhaps like many of us, just want to see the world, or 2020, burn.
I love you, let me stand on your larynx.

Kevin: Moi?
Scampi: Dad said you probably were
Kevin: Dad has a fruitful imagination
Scampi: Really
Kevin: Yes, he once believed I had pushed all his plants off the sideboard
Scampi: Did you?
Kevin: No, I left one standing#CatsOfTwitter pic.twitter.com/D1V5d4ZmNr

My younger cat goes into the spare bedroom every night when it’s entirely dark, like, completely pitch black, can’t see a thing dark, and she sits on the dresser and just screams into the void. No idea why, but very relatable.
