Twitter Thread: Cat Owners Keeping 'Trash' For Their Cats

As cat owners, we always talk about the ridiculous habits that our cats have. From having a weird obsession with our fresh laundry to randomly deciding to steal our bread right from under our noses. Cats are weird. We acknowledge it. But we also have to admit that… our cats' weirdness has led us to being a little weird too.

The epitome of that weirdness, of course, is the fact that we keep what is 100% trash in our apartment because we know that our cats love it. Cats love boxes more than they love cat trees, so our living rooms are littered with boxes. There is that one hair tie that has been chewed on by your cat so much you no longer wear it, but you keep it in the corner of your bedroom because you know that your cat loves it. Come on, admit it, we have all done this. There is no shame. Only solidarity.

Reminding everyone - there is no shame in doing this! It may be trash for us, but that empty box of tissues is treasure for them. We would have thrown it out, we promise, it's not a matter of laziness. The only reason we have chosen to keep it is because we're pawsome cat owners, okay?

To be honest, this is the first thought we had when we read the initial tweet that started the thread. "If our cat sits on us, does that mean that we are trash?" No, it does not mean that you are trash, but it does mean that you are as valuable or perhaps even more valuable to them than that box of Kleenex, and we take that as an honor.
