Get a cat

Get a Cat (Phrase): A slang term meaning “to get married,” based on the humorous observation that many married couples often adopt cats as their first pet. The phrase suggests a cozy, domestic lifestyle associated with marriage.

Origin: The term “get a cat” is widely believed to have originated on TikTok in early 2023, when a creator named @CozyCoupleChronicles posted a viral video captioned “First comes love, then comes marriage… then comes a cat named Pickles.” The video, which featured a montage of newlywed couples adopting cats, quickly racked up millions of views and sparked a trend.

Soon, other creators joined in, using the phrase in captions like, “When you know it’s serious: they’re ready to get a cat 🐈” and parodying dating milestones with references to feline adoption. The hashtag #GetACat trended across platforms, with users sharing relationship updates and jokingly speculating when their significant others would be ready to “get a cat.”

By late 2024, the phrase had entered broader slang usage as a cheeky way to describe tying the knot, solidifying its status in modern lexicon.

“Did you hear, Sally and Roger are going to get a cat?”
“Oh how nice, they are such a cute couple.”

Getting Waqar'd

When there are stereotypes about certain people but you try to look past them and give them the benefit of the doubt
and they turn around and fit RIGHT in with the stereotype.

When people say everyone one from Texas is nice, and the fist person you talk to from Texas ends up being a nice person. That's getting waqar'd.
