Ask any cat owner why they love their cats and they will list just about a million reasons off the top of their heads. They'll say things like, "My cat is the cutest, mine is the smartest, the funniest in the world". Some will say their cats are healers, others will say keepers and the list goes on. It's the same with human parents, they'll take any chance and opportunity to brag about how smart and cool their kids are and not like the rest.
But what the parents won't tell you are all their flaws and insecurities. They won't tell you that they don't listen, they won't tell you that they misbehave. Of course not, that would be embarrassing for the world to find out. But not for cat people. Unlike human parents, hooman parents love to laugh about the criminal activities their cats take part in. Whether it's theft, knocking things down off the table, or straight-out violence - leave it to cat people to laugh about it.
You know what, in the end, it's all worth it. We believe that our cats just don't know the power that their claws hold. They must think they're just as fluffy as the rest of their bodies. But yeah, anyway, not doing it on purpose. We're sure of it..
Our cats may be cold and distant the entire day but we can rest assured that they will find those 5 little minutes to come and cuddle us. And when they do - nothing else matters, it all feels worth it in the end.
