We've all played the "If you could be any kind of animal, what would you be?" game at some point in our lives. Some people say a dog, some people say a unicorn.

I would be a cat.

My cat, Killian, is the envy of every cat. He lives the most regal lifestyle you could ever imagine along with his brother, Kieran. Killian, whose nickname is Bear, is a 6-year-old Maine Coon from Mentor, Ohio. He's lovable, and his fur feels like an angel's hair. If I could be any animal, I wouldn't be just any cat. I would be Bear, and here are just a few of the reasons why!

1. He’s pudgy, but everyone likes him the way he is

Imagine not having to care about weight loss or watching what you eat.

2. Nothing is ever expected of him

Because he has no thumbs with which to do anything!

3. He gets to sleep all day

What would it be like to sleep all day until 8 p.m. and then wake up and wreak havoc all night?

4. My family spoils him

And they won't deny it.

5. Sunny naps

Wherever there's a ray of sunshine on the floor, you'll find him there.

6. He never has to go to classes

He already knows how to say, "Rrrrrrrowlllllll." He doesn't need to know anything else.

7. Getting to drink from the kitchen faucets

One of our faucets uses a reverse osmosis water filtration system. It doesn't get any better than that.

8. He never has to make his own meal

But boy, he's a picky eater.

9. Everyone knows that “Mowl” means “I want water”

Proof that he's teaching us, not the other way around.

10. All the belly rubs

Most cats don't like belly rubs, right? But most dogs do. That's one of the many reasons Maine Coons are the golden retrievers of cats.

11. Trips to the vet mean lots of loving and pampering from the vet techs

Sometimes you want to go where everybody knows your name!

12. He’s carried everywhere

Awwwww poor baby doesn't want to jump on the couch? Let me lift you, honey. Awwwww Bear Bear wants to take a nap? C'mon, buddy, I'll carry you upstairs to bed.

13. When he looks at you, his eyes study your face

I don't know how else to describe it; it's not like a regular cat. It feels like I'm looking into the eyes of a human, which is why we treat him like a human.

14. So many cuddles

His favorite cuddle position is where he's under a blanket making biscuits on the couch.

15. When he rolls onto his back, a chorus of “Aws” can be heard a mile away

I wish people fawned on me the way they do on Bear.

16. He never has to walk in the rain outside

You know he's spoiled when he's an indoor-only cat.

17. Everyone loves him

Because who wouldn't?
