There’s a great tool by Google called the Keyword Planner. It allows you to find out what people are searching for on Google, and how many searches things get!
We decided to do a bit of keyword research for the US and UK. Subsequently, we discovered some bizarre searches that people have been roaming around the internet for.
Without further ado, please find our top 23 best unusual search terms.
Starting with Pets…
| Search Term | Searches per Month |
| is my cat trying to kill me | 260 |
| why is my cat trying to eat me | 30 |
| is my cat possessed | 90 |
| do cats see ghosts | 850 |
Google seems to suggest that zombie cats may be among us. This is truly terrifying news! In all seriousness, a US Today article suggested that your cat might actually want to kill you, well…sometimes. A study suggested that cats share similarities with lions, and if cats were bigger they may sometimes feel the urge to kill us, mostly out of anxiety or upset. They are also moodier, one minute they’re enjoying a belly scratch, the next they’re swiping at us.

Surprisingly not included in regular life insurance policies, alien abduction policies are their own entity. Perhaps even more surprisingly, it has been reported that more than “6,000” people have purchased an alien abduction insurance policy, which covers things like medical expenses and sarcasm endured. As for seeing ghosts? Well, there’s no insurance for that yet.

It has been suggested that a dream in which you kill someone can signal some real-life aggression that you may have been suppressing. However, it seems most of us are more worried about our cars getting damaged, which is probably the cause of all that pent up real-life aggression.
