You can never see too many pictures of a cat blepping. That’s why there’s a popular subreddit named r/Blep, which is full of all sorts of adorable cats doing just that!

In case you haven’t heard, “blep” is a term created by Reddit user BillohRly to describe when a cat is sticking their tongue out. You might find a feline doing this because they’re investigating a new environment, picking up scents, or simply because they find it comfortable. Whatever the reason, it’s absolutely delightful, and we hope you enjoy some of our favorites below!

Cats are known for a lot of things: being made of liquid, having squishy toe beans, and of course, having adorable blep faces. Those are just a few characteristics that make them so lovable, and we’re so happy websites like Reddit give us a way to share and appreciate felines from all around the world!
