But sometimes, isn’t all you want just more cats? Like, all day, every day? Pluto.tv is a free television streaming service with hundreds of free channels. And they just launched [Cats 24/7](http://pluto.tv/#!&channel=Cats&awesm=~oDGGtQrTJhTZD2), which gives you exactly what its name describes. Every hour is filled with felines, from documentaries on big cats to YouTube-friendly cartoon skits and parodies. Shows include “Famous Felines,” “Scaredy Cats,” “Cats Gone Viral,” and many, many more. It’s pretty light fare—no one’s going to mistake this for a cat HBO. But we do have a few suggestions. _Real Cats of Orange County_ would be a smash hit, as would _Kitten Survivor_. _Catnip_ could make a great name for a sexy all-cat drama. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/92561/cats-247-is-a-tv-channel-that-gives-you-what-you-really-want/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/92561/cats-247-is-a-tv-channel-that-gives-you-what-you-really-want/"},"headline":"Cats 24/7 Is a TV Channel That Gives You What You Really Want","datePublished":"2014-05-08T17:48:29.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:09:31.366Z","description":"Non-stop meow","url":"https://time.com/92561/cats-247-is-a-tv-channel-that-gives-you-what-you-really-want/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","cats"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltc60c8a350f5d5ec8/69868e73cd68481b420948c8/cattv.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Kyle Chayka","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/kyle-chayka/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltc60c8a350f5d5ec8/69868e73cd68481b420948c8/cattv.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"cattv","caption":"","creditText":"Aaron Weber / Flickr","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/92561/cats-247-is-a-tv-channel-that-gives-you-what-you-really-want/","name":"Cats 24/7 Is a TV Channel That Gives You What You Really Want"}}]}] ```
