Cats are very versatile. They can ignore you, knock things off of tables, and wake you up at night with a startle.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Artist Lisa Swerling illustrates the very important jobs that cats perform on a daily basis.

1. Here’s the lowdown

2. Check the gravity on that

3. It appears to be fine

4. Oh my god!

5. That’s a big help

6. Warm it up

7. This feels natural

8. Assistant

9. It’s all there

10. That’s important

11. Making biscuits

12. Keeping it warm

13. Not soft enough

14. Enough of that

15. Time to wake up

What would we do without them?
