Hilarious pet memes reveal what your animals are REALLY thinking this Christmas

IT'S less than a week to Christmas but that has not stopped the internet giving out some hilarious early gifts.

The stockings are hung by the fire with care, and the cat's sat in the corner, choking on her hair.

It's hard to communicate with our pets at the best of times.

But with a house full of people, presents and party food, it's easy to forget that our animals are caught up in the excitement, too.

These memes perhaps give us the best idea of just what our pets are thinking this Christmas.

It turns out that maybe we aren't that different from our animals, after all...
