After #QuarantineLife was the top trending topic on Twitter Monday morning, #QuarantineCats is the latest hashtag circulating online as many Americans try to make the best of social distancing. Thousands of cat owners took to social media to share photos, videos and gifs on how their cats are dealing with the extra attention at home.
