Why are they all over? Because we give cats way more human-like characteristics than dogs.

This meme, for example, if a dog were chomping down on the keys of a piano we'd associate it to how dogs eat everything and anything left out. Cats... not so much. So when a cat does it, it's funny.

For those cat-lovers, I know, it's so much adorableness to take in all at once.
