You've probably heard this before; how the internet is like Ancient Egypt, and people write on walls and worship cats. Because that's what we've been doing in 2014. Liking cute cat pictures and going gaga about internet cat celebrities who've risen from hilarious memes to endorse products, star in movies and travel the world.
