5 Struggles Of Having A Cat

Or should I say cats

5 Struggles Of Having A Cat
Taylor Marquart

I love my two kitties to the moon and back but most of the time, the give me a run for my money. I guess they make up for all the annoying and irritation by being super cute.

1. Love on their own terms

The kitties approach you when they want pets and other sources of love. I am never successful when I try to initiate any belly rubs. Most of my attempts end with claws or bites to the hand. Any attempts to pick up my cats are also equally as unsuccessful.

2. Naps in the most annoying spots

Like laying on my laptop when I'm trying to cram for a test or get a paper done. My least favorite is when they try to lay on my neck while I am trying to catch up on my sleep.

3. Kitty hair on all your favorite clothes

There aren't enough lint rollers for this annoying act of kitties. It's almost like they know exactly what outfit I am going to wear, and they are adding their own touch of style to it.

4. 6 AM feeding time

The second the bowl is slightly empty, I have two 12 pound kitties jumping on and off of the bed. The additional meows and head butts make it entirely impossible to ignore them and fall back asleep. It doesn't stop until someone gets out of bed and fills the bowl.

5. Wiping around the house

Basically for the six hours of the day they don't spend sleeping. They use this time to chase each other around the house.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
