CATOPOLIS — It’s hard to find someone who doesn’t enjoy a good cat video.

Friday is World Cat Day, so naturally we thought it would be a great idea if everyone took a brief moment to appreciate the humor the feline species has to offer. The Internet has made it easier than ever to find the most entertaining of cats.

Below are a few of our favorite feline personalities, although there are many other great ones. Let us know what your favorite cat videos are in the comments.

So your cat wants a massage?

This video is very helpful for those who want to show their cats some extra love. It’s also great for people who like to laugh.

“If we understood fluently, our cats would tell us petting is passe because your cat wants a massage,” the instructor informs viewers.

She shares lots of nuggets of knowledge, like “remember you can’t fool drool.” Keep an eye out for a guest appearance by a stuffed tiger.

Henri 2, paw de deux

This melodramatic short spoofs the foreign film format and takes an intimate look at the troubles of a cat spending time indoors.

“The 15 hours a day I sleep have no effect,” the cat narrates. “I wake to the same tedium.”

Maru and his boxes

Lots of cats like boxes, but Japanese cat Maru takes it to the extreme. No box is too small for Maru to settle into and even big boxes aren’t daunting enough to scare him away — he’ll just pop right back out after finding a way in.

Shark Cat

When you own a cat, litter boxes need tending to and hairballs need to be picked up, so it’s nice when a cat it willing to chip in and help with the cleaning. It’s even better if they’re wearing a shark costume while doing it.

Keyboard Cat

With more than 36 million views in the past seven years, Charlie Schmidt’s Keyboard Cat is a classic. The video shows a cat jamming while wearing a sweet jacket. “Fatso” the cat may have had some help to hit those notes, but his performance is still entertaining.

Nyan Cat

To send you on your way back to surfing the Internet, here is a video of the animated Nyan Cat running through the stars and leaving a rainbow trail behind him. Fun fact: “nyan” is the sound for “meow” in Japanese.
