The 'Underloaf' meme celebrates the unique perspective of a cat in the 'loaf' position—paws tucked under its body—viewed from directly underneath, typically through a glass table. While the term 'cat loaf' has been an internet staple for years, the underloaf perspective gained significant traction on social media platforms like Reddit and Instagram as pet owners began documenting the hidden physics of their pets' sitting habits. These images often highlight the perfectly compressed fur and hidden paws, evoking a sense of cozy mystery. In meme culture, the Underloaf represents the unseen side of a situation or the ultimate level of comfort and 'chonkiness,' often paired with POV captions or jokes about being a piece of furniture.
