9 Insanely Curious Cats That Debunked A Centuries Old Saying

By Shiva Kumeow

There is an age old saying / adage that goes “curiosity killed the cat”. I always wondered if there was any truth to that. So I set out to do my research on the Internets and here’s what I found out.

Curiosity DID NOT kill the cat, it just made the Cat stronger!

As evidence to back my claim and debunk the “curiosity killed the cat” myth / false saying, here are 9 cats that were insanely curious. Not only did these cats survive their ordeal, they came out of their situation stronger than ever.

1. “Are my paws made of Velcro? Only 1 way to find out.”

2. “Nope, no more Cheetos.”

"But...everything looked so tasty!" Imgur

3. “I wonder if I can Jump into this Box without Tripping it over?”

Nope.

4. But Ima try again.

"CAN'T SEE. CAN'T SEE. DEATH IS NEAR!" Imgur

5. …and again… and again…

Seeing if you could break your high-jump record in front of the dogs might not have been a good idea. Death by embarrassment. Giphy

6. “I always wanted to know what the flower vase water tasted like.”

"I wanted to know if your water tasted different." Imgur

7. “Hmmm. I wonder if I can drink out of this big pond without falling into it.”

"Am I big enough to drink outta the toilet ye- I'M DROWNING." GIF Soup

Guess not. Lesson learned LOL. Hope nobody saw that. So embarrassing.

8. “No more Ravioli left. I am pawsitive!”

"I WILL DIE IN THIS BOX." Imgur

9. “I was wondering if I could swim. Michael Phelps made it look easy.”

"No wonder I hate water." Imgur (Editor Note: This cat was rescued out of the water immediately after this photo was taken. He is safe.)

There you have it.

9 cats, proving that “curiosity killed the cat” is a false quote and an invalid statement.

Wait, does 9 lives have anything to do with this??? What the…
