Cat Keeps Putting Her Arms In The Air And No One Knows Why

Meet ‘Keys’ the cat. She likes putting her paws in the air and nobody knows why. Her unusual pose has caught the Internet’s imagination and now gifs, memes and all assortments of funny pictures are dedicated to her. But the pictures of her, on her own, and in her natural habitat are funny all on their own.

Peter Mares, her Californian owner, saw her throw her paws in the air one morning and quickly took a picture. The next day she did it again and he took another photo.

She did it so often that Peter has nicknamed her Goalkitty and started an Instagram page.

I can see why Peter nicknamed her that. It does look like she’s imagining stopping a soccer ball from going in the net (although it could be that Peter is a soccer fan).

But she could also be imagining climbing an imaginary tree?

Or looking for a double high-five?

Or looking to be lifted up and cuddled?

Whatever her reason, Keys odd behavior is downright charming.
