If you have ever had a cat or been around a feline friend, I am sure that you have somehow seen something in them that you love (unless you do not like cats). If you dislike cats, be prepared for your mindset to change, because they are awesome creatures. Here, you will find 5 ways that you can identify with cats, and maybe see yourself in them in more ways than you could have imagined.
1. Laziness
Cats are notorious for being indolent creatures and you would be lying to yourself if you did not have a day in your life where you wanted to sit around and do nothing all day. I mean, how awesome would it be to eat and sleep all day long and have no responsibilities for a bit.
2. Being easily entertained
Kitties may be lazy, but they are easily entertained by the little things in life. Toy mice, yarn, real mice, and laser pointers are a few of the countless things that cats can find joy in at their paws. We are similar to this in many ways like the common TV show binge, video game addiction, and getting lost in social media for long periods of time.
3. Constant reaffirmation and affection
If you haven't noticed, cats either love or really really loathe being touched. If you come in contact with a cat that loves affection, do not take it for granted. Soak in the moment. If a kitty lets you in their bubble, take full advantage. We are similar to this in some ways. Us humans like affection when we want it, and in the case of cats they have claws to tell you to back off. Also, if you ever have the privilege of kitty kisses, they are very rare and cherished.
4. We can be a bit moody sometimes
Although we may love affection, like cats, we also like our personal space. Cats have a nice way of telling you to back off. They simply whip out their claws and scratch you until it hurts. I don't think they mean to be hurtful, they just like their bubble to remain intact and if it's popped, they will let you know. We can also be this way. We enjoy our personal space and if it is invaded, we won't scratch you with our claws, but a moody person may come out.
5. We love our food
If you have noticed, cats love food. Wet food, dry food, people food, and sometimes even prey they have hunted and returned to your door as a token of their love. Whichever way they get it, they love their food. Also like us, we love to eat different types of food. Fast food, expensive food, cold food, hot food, and food that we also like to hunt (aka deer, turkey, and fish). We share this trait and it is the best in my opinion.
