Being a college student isn't nearly as much fun as people make it sound. There's tests, all-nighters, stress and relationships to worry about. But cats? They're living the life. Here's why I'd rather be a cat.
1. They are assholes, and no one questions it or loves them any less because of it. Need I say more?
2. They want constant attention but as soon as you give it to them, they want you to stop and go away. I do this to my boyfriend all the time, but he doesn't find it nearly as cute.
3. They love to be in places that they don't fit in, like those jeans I keep telling myself are fine while I lose blood circulation when I wear them.
4. They pounce on anything and anyone whenever they want. When I do this, I get called weird or clingy.
5. All they do is sleep and eat. I do that now in college, but apparently being a successful adult calls for a lot of other responsibilities too.
6. They have their own human. As soon as someone adopts them, they're stuck with them forever!
7. Someone cleans up after them, even when it's a smelly box of crap. When I leave smelly boxes lying around, my roommates tell me I need throw away my old Chinese takeout.
8. They lay wherever they want, even if it's directly in the middle of the bed they're supposed to be sharing with their person. I never get away with that.
9. They're never afraid to tell off people for getting too close. Hissing? Check. Scratching? Check. Restraining order? Oh, wait...
10. They never have to get a pedicure. Sure, pedicures can be nice, but I'd much rather have cute little toe beans and never worry about someone seeing my ugly feet.
