What is with the "Twilight is a cat" meme?

[SixShooterOutlaw 237]

What is with the stuff on the internet that is about Twilight being a cat? I am talking about stuff like this:

Sorry if I missed something but it doesn't make much sense to me.

We all had a secret meeting, everyone on the internet and we made it an inside joke that everyone but you was in on.

 

Nah, in all seriousness: I've never heard of this meme until now.

[The Nth Doctor 664]

Blame artists like CaptainPudgeMuffin for drawing adorable ponies acting like cats and his fans being highly popular fanfic writers who take his pictures and run with 'em

[Bendy 1,821]

It's not just Twilight...

 

They think it's cute I guess to have Twilight do cat like things and ponies in general. 

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 42,202]

Consider me one of those bronies that has been out of the loop on this one. Never heard of this meme at all until now. Honestly, I don't get it either.

[Quinch 1,143]

Same, this is news to me.

 

Then again, this is how memes are made or failed. People asking about them.

 

But to me, it doesn't really click.

I think it's because of her cat like behaviour in the show

This is news to me actually. It could be just because she's cute and so are cats...and since cats are a thing on the internet, you can connect the dots.

 

I'm more confused about the "Rarity is a cow" one.

[The Nth Doctor 664]

Rarity is best Marshmallow Cow

Twilight is best purry pony kitty

[Shanks 10,817]

Actually I have seen pics of other ponies most notably Fluttershy that have been depicted with cat like behaviors. It is just one of those things that someone probably did, people thought it was cute so they did it too and so on.

I didn't get it at first either until I saw certain NSFW pictures I won't link here, all I am going to say about those is that they play on lactation fetishes and what animal is most associated with milk? Uh yeah, that is right cows though as for why Rarity is the one most associated with it I have no idea.

I've seen this before, but I never questioned it. Kitty Twilight is the cutest thing I've ever seen and I want more of it.

[Bruh 37]

Yeah I haven't even seen cat Twilight until now. It makes sense that the internet would do it, so whatever. Raricow is just weird, and I suppose they chose Rarity because you can just add black spots and different ears and BOOM! Cow pony. I guess. :/

I believe what you meant to say was "Thank artists like CaptainPudgeMuffin". :comeatus:

Thanks, I think? Could be worse, he could be drawing-

 

 

 

OH COME ON!

I'll have you know, I'm a big fan of his TwiDashery.

This is the first time I've ever heard of this meme. I don't think you're the only one out of the loop.

[Dynamo Pad 11,701]

This is the first time I've ever heard of a meme like this. I got to say it's pretty cool, adorable, and I could probably see this happening or something along those lines. 

[cider float 2,539]

That one is weird. Why people depict Fluttershy as a tree and Scootaloo as a chicken do come with hints in the show.

[Akari of Duskshire 581]

I've never heard of it.  I don't really get it.

 

I still think it's as adorable as I'll get out.  *readies my guns in self-defense*

Okay that fumbling on the pad does seem cat-like.
