Felines of New York is a brilliant parody of Brandon Stanton’s famous 'Humans of New York' photography project. Created by Jim Tews, it reimagines the streets of NYC through the eyes and existential crises of its feline residents. The meme typically features a candid photo of a cat—often a bodega cat or a city stray—paired with a lengthy, poignant, or absurd quote about life in the Big Apple. It captures the unique intersection of animal photography and urban storytelling, resonating with anyone who appreciates both the grit of New York and the mysterious nature of cats. Users utilize this template to project complex human emotions and social commentary onto their pets.
