What is a pun?
A pun is a literary device or a figure of speech that gambles with the meaning of a word. The main intention of using puns in literature or normal writing is to invoke humor or comedy. Puns can also imply or strengthen the ironies or sarcasm that is deployed in the writing. It can be used as a hidden, well-structured joke. The puns that we are going to see here are based on wordplay. That is, the similarity of the word with some cat-related terms is exploited to intend the pun. It may or may not make you laugh. But the pun is indeed intended. The puns associated with cats are furrfect or purrfect like the creatures themselves. Let us look at some of the best cat puns.
Cat puns
Example: The attack between the cats turned out to be “apawling.” The paws will have a role when it comes to attacking anyway. So no question in how it became “apawling.” Example: Hold the cat befur it runs behind the mouse. The fur is going to make the house messy after the chase. Example: Leaving your dog with the cat can be catastrophic. They can be really good friends too, rarely. Example: I run races and I own a cat. Maybe I am a cathletic person. Pun intended indeed. The cat also runs fast. The cat might also be cathletic. Example: The cat jumped off the wall towards John and that was a ‘cat’ch! Of course, the cat can land on four feet but isn’t jumping into the hands of the owner cute? Example: Babe, I had a weird dream last night. Our cat was floating in the air with several other cats. It really felt like a catmosphere. Better think less about my cute cat while I go to sleep or else I will be trapped in these nightmares again.
