Upon returning home, I have been reconnected with my true loves; my cats. In all honesty, I view my cats as my children, and my love for them is truly unending. If you know me, it is VERY likely that you know all about my sweet cats Nora and Scarlett, and have most likely listened to the countless stories of their everyday adventures. That being said, I feel like I am always defending my love for cats to others who do not have the gift of being an owner of these feline friends. Cats have a bad reputation of being disloyal, cold-hearted, and weird. But how wrong these people are!! (Okay I admit cats are weird, you got me there haters) Anyway, I often find myself defending cats, and trying to persuade others on just how awesome they truly are. After countless conversations, I have made a list of my very best arguments on why cats are the best creatures to roam the earth.

1. Kittens. Enough saidhttps://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/local/files/2014/10/4-kittens1.jpg

So, there you have it, my full list of why cats are the greatest. And while I am sure there are infinitely more points that could be added to this list, I don’t think anyone would or could read an article that long. In conclusion, to all of the cat haters out there, give felines a chance! These misunderstood pets are truly such awesome little beings, and deserve all the love in the world. Hopefully these facts and pictures have proved how weird/cute/fun/adorable/bendy/perfect cats are, and maybe just maybe brought some of you over to the dark side… cat-people.
