Everyone knows that owning a cat is far different than owning a dog. In some aspects, they require less work, while in others, cats can be quite a pain. In the end, we always care deeply for our pets, but here are a few things that only cat owners can understand.
1. When they want attention, they make it known...
Not only will they insist you give all of your attention to them, they will keep doing it. Cats are very persistent when they want to be.
2. ...but they don't ALWAYS want attention
The world revolves around your cat! If they don't want to interact with you, there is no way to get around it. They run on their own time, and it's their way or the highway!
3. And you can forget about taking cute selfies with your cat
If they are held in one place too long, your cat is bound to get irritated. Cats are a complicated breed. They can be the most patient creatures on the planet, but when it comes to something they don't agree with, odds are, you're going to end up with a paw to the face.
4. They sleep anywhere...
And everywhere...
Regardless of who it may inconvenience.
Something that cats are really good at is making themselves at home. Once they enter a room, it becomes theirs, and they aren't afraid to take it. But due to their adorable features and general likability (for cat people at least), if they fall asleep on us, we cannot move. No matter how much we want to, we won't because there is no way we will risk disturbing their peaceful slumber.
5. You may own a dog, but a cat owns you.
Whether or not you own the house where they dwell, a cat will always be in charge. They sit in the highest places as to be above everyone else because really, they kind of are. They take control of their home and are not afraid to make that clear.
But at the end of the day, you can always count on your furry friend to be there for you.
Whether it is a cat, dog, bird, or other species of pet that you have, they are always there when you get home. You can tell them anything because let's be real, who would they tell anyways? Basically the only person they come into contact with is you. And although it may not always seem like it, they love you unconditionally. So here's to our pets and all of the joy and happiness they bring us every day!
