The "cat coughing" meme features a cat making a coughing or hacking motion, often humorously implying the animal is struggling with something, like a hairball or an attempt to mimic human behavior. This meme became popular in the early 2010s, gaining traction as users paired video clips or GIFs of cats with funny or exaggerated captions. These captions frequently depict the cat as being either distressed or comically confused by the act of coughing. The meme taps into the internet’s love for cats, especially those in awkward or relatable situations, and has since become a staple in the larger animal meme genre.
