10 pictures of huge cats sitting on the world’s most powerful weapons
SUMMARY
Cats are apt to perch wherever they please — on your keyboard, atop the refrigerator, or squished into a box. But a cat on top of a submarine is unexpected, to say the least.
Military Giant Cats (@ GiantCat9 on Twitter) is a bizarre Twitter account that's exactly what it sounds like — photos of giant cats on top of, playing with, or stalking various militaries or weapons systems.
The account's creator, a person who identified himself as Thomas, told Insider, "I started this weird account because I love the absurdity of [the] internet, I love the cats, I worked several years in the defense industry."
"A lot of people send me [cat] pics in the DM," Thomas told Insider via Twitter direct message. He then Photoshops the cats onto airplanes, submarines, battlefields, and tanks, much to the delight of the account's 29,000 followers.
Take a look at these felines on fighter jets in the next slides.

Thomas told Insider he was "surprised by the buzz" around the account, but noted that cats are "easy clickbait."
8. The Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard even got in on the fun.
Or is that Purr-l Harbor?
10. This is a literal Tomcat F-14B.
Cat puns aside, Thomas told Insider, "I have nothing to sell, no political message, my Photoshop skills are quite modest, I just want to have fun and share a good time with the Twitter community."
