We know most of you have at some point in your life watched a video montage of dogs welcoming soldiers home. If you haven't and you feel like crying buckets of feels, then we suggest going to your friendly neighborhood YouTube page and watching one.

The point is that these videos are full of man's best friend losing their minds and complete control of their bodies when they see their owners return from deployment. They wag their tails so hard and whine and bark and it's just a glorious mess of love and devotion. It truly warms the cockles of our cold, dead hearts.

And that is why this video of cats "welcoming" soldiers home is absolute perfection, because our feline overlords do not care if you've just returned from fighting for your country. They just want to be fed, human. They probably didn't notice you were gone.

True, there are cats who act just like loyal dogs when their owners come back home after being away, and this footage of a cat jumping into a soldier's arms is too cute for words, but let's be real here. This video represents everything you need to know about cats. So if someone asks you, "is it true that cats can be real a--holes?" just show them this video.
