Just like crusties and their dogs, there’s something about metalheads and cats. It’s funny to think about a population that is so often stereotyped as antisocial and negative as being so willing to publicly cuddle with kittens, like on the huge facebook group, Metalheads Who Love Cats. With almost 23,000 members, they are obviously on to something. Maybe there is such a connection between metalheads and felines because they share a common disdain for societal norms – cats could honestly care less about what anyone thinks of them, they just want to hang out with their human friends, eat and sleep. Cats also seem to dislike the cat population at large, and while they may end up with a small group of close cat-friends, for the most part they think cat society as a whole sucks. Sound familiar? Cats also enjoy taking care of their hair, and maybe that’s another common interest they share with metalheads. Either way, from the photos below you can see that there is a deep connection between these small but proud animals and their human metal-loving counterparts. Also, stay tuned for Alexandra Crockett’s Metaldudes Cats Book, which we’ve been told will be published in 2014. Attention all Metalheads Who Love Cats members – this will be the perfect coffee table book for you and your cat to enjoy together!
