Cats are automatically written off as snobby, stuck-up and aloof. However, a true cat lover knows that these fuzzy creatures are anything but. It takes a special person to love a cat between their weird quirks and constant yapping. Odds are, their habits have rubbed off on you as well. People say that over time, pet owners start to look like their animals. For cats, it's a little difficult, but their quirky traits definitely start to influence any cat owner.
1. You want to nap all the time.
Cats are naturally sleepy animals. They can be found in your comfiest lounge chair or buried in the depths of your comforter for hours on end. You can't help but look at your cat and wish you could nap for 15 hours of the day, especially since they always look so cozy. You just want to join them in their comfort and sleep the day the away.
2. You beg other people to give you food.
Begging for food is something that people only expect dogs to do. Well surprise, cats are just as guilty. They'll sit next to on the kitchen chair or sofa and stare into your soul until you give them some of your yogurt or scrambled eggs. They have no shame. Soon enough, you'll be trying to convince your friends to buy you some food. You can thank your cat for this newly-developed habit.
3. You want to be left alone.
It's true that cats can be a little standoffish. Not even cat owners can deny that. But everyone needs a little alone time sometimes and cats are the best role models when it comes to being alone. Everyone needs a little time to themselves to catch up on sleep, your favorite Netflix show or to eat an entire pizza. With no one around to judge, the possibilities are endless.
4. You always want to be in the know.
Despite spending time by themselves more often than not, cats have a knack for being incredibly nosy. After all, curiosity did kill the cat. When there's a bump in the night, your cat is always the first to investigate and their FOMO might be rubbing off on you. Even when you like spending some time to yourselves, you never want to miss what's going on in the world outside of your closed-off-to-the-world bedroom.
5. You enjoy people watching.
According to cats, nothing compares to sitting in a good window and watching the world below. Cat owners can learn a lot from their observant pets. Everyone at some point has sat down and watched the people around them going about their daily lives. There's just something exciting about creepily watching strangers walk by you. But if your cat does it, it's probably okay for you to sit and stare too.
Cats are funny creatures that we can learn from and appreciate. Their strange quirks are somehow considered normal when you're not a cat. Either way, there's just something lovable about our judgemental feline companions. But no matter how rude or stuck up they may seem, we can't help but love them with our entire heart.
