"When we started the account, we wanted to make it different from other accounts that feature photos of cats, so we decided to write all of our captions as haikus," founder Kara Davidson told Fox News.
While many wouldn't consider a cat to be the ideal camping companion, Ms Davidson disagrees.
"People are always asking how cats don't just run away in fear when you take them camping or hiking," she said.
"I think many people perceive cats as lazy or anxious creatures that would be too scared to go outside and enjoy themselves. In reality, most cats enjoy the outdoors just as much as dogs."
Visible in most Camping with Cats photos is a very important accessory - a cat leash. Make sure you pick one up before taking your furry friend out into the New Zealand bush - or you might be hearing from Gareth Morgan.
