9 Reasons Why My Cat Is My Best Friend
Bridgette Borden

They say that a dog is man's best friend. Well, I believe that a cat is woman's best friend. My cat is like a little human, and most days, she reminds me of a little me. Here are a few reasons why my kitty is my absolute bestest friend:

1. She's always there for me.

At the end of the day, I know I can always count on her to be there. Whenever I'm stressed out to the max, and I just want to break down and bawl my eyes out, she'll always be there by my side to listen.

2. She's a great listener that doesn't make the problem about her.

Whenever I've had a bad day, and I just really need someone to vent to, she's the perfect candidate. I can yell, and gripe, and complain all I want without having to be interrupted. She'll sit there quietly, although I'm sure she's silently judging me. That's okay though. She's the best.

3. I can cuddle with her, and it never gets awkward.

Well, it doesn't get awkward for me. Her cuddles are the absolute best.

4. She always knows when I need her.

My kitty can always sense when something is wrong. Whether I'm emotionally upset, I'm sick, or I'm in pain, she always seems to know it. She will lay right up against me, licking my hair, and purring. She never leaves my side.

5. I like her more than people sometimes.

Whenever the whole world is getting on my nerves, and I'm overwhelmed with people needing me, It's such a relief that she's not a human being. People leave, but cats are forever!

6. She keeps me laughing.

Cats are weird. They are hilarious little creatures, especially my kitty. Whenever she runs around the house acting buck wild, she always keeps me on my toes.

7. She enjoys taking baths, taking naps, and eating food.

This one ties our common interests together. Despite how many cats act when it comes to bath time, my fur baby actually enjoys it. Every time I walk into the bathroom, she always darts in before me and heads straight to the tub. Weirdo. She also loves naps and food, but those are self explanatory.

8. She gives me space when I need it.

On the days that I don't want anyone to bother me, she'll gladly leave me alone. Unfortunately that means she's getting into something somewhere, and I'm having to holler for her to "Get out of there!"

9. She loves going for car rides.

Some nights I just feel like going for a drive. On the nights that I want someone to tag along, she's always my go to shotgun rider. She'll sit right there in the passenger seat and enjoy the ride.


She is absolutely the cutest! I love my cat so much, and I'm so glad that I have a great friend like her!

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

Students walking on a sunny college campus with trees and buildings.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
