As long time cat owners, we can shamelessly say that we have developed some… strange habits over the years. Hey, we want our cats to be happy! More than that - we want them to be the happiest, and if that means going the extra mile and doing some weird stuff, well… so be it. So, what? So we know that our cats love boxes, so we never throw delivery boxes away. So, we know that our cats like drinking from the sink, so we leave the tap open for them for a little while after brushing our teeth. So, we know that our cats like hearing our voices, so we walk around and have meow-filled conversations with our cats. So, what? That doesn't do anyone any harm. But it does mark us as a cat person.

There are certain things that we do as cat people that really show that we're cat people. Don't need to say a thing. If someone like us walked into your house, we would be able to recognize you as a cat person or not within the span of one minute, tops. There are signs. And those are heckin' hilarious.

Yup. These are the signs. This is the kind of cat person who would be spotted from miles away by people like us. We would see you and immediately feel a kinship. We will immediately start talking about cats with you, we would demand pictures of the fluffballs, and yes, don't worry, of course, we would show you pics of our cats too.

Oh, there's no time like Christmas time in a household with cats in it. There's a fortification that needs to be done, there's preparation beyond the norm, and there is the incredible awesomeness of seeing your cat reacting to this amazing sparkly tree for the first time that year.
