"Get a cat", they said. "They're low maintenance", they said. "You'll hardly even notice they're there" - yeah, right.

The biggest lie anyone can tell you about owning a cat is that it's boring. The second biggest lie is that they're less work than a dog. They're just a different kind of work, and we can certainly say that our lives with our cats are the farthest thing from boring. Unless you call yelling for your cat to get off the kitchen counter from two rooms away because you heard a clink of their tiny, purrfect paws stepping on the ceramic case where we store our bread.

Sure, you don't have to take cats out three times a day to use the bathroom and get out energy, but you do have to deal with them climbing your shower curtain, and sometimes even your wall. You also have to deal with them waking you up at 3 AM because they decide that your face is the purrfect place to sleep, despite having at least three beds scattered throughout the house (that have never been used once). You may not have to train your cats, but you do have to deal with your cats training you. Did we succeed in getting our cats to get off the counter when we tell them, or did they train us to give them a treat every time they get on, and then off, the kitchen counter?

Don't misunderstand us - our cats are the greatest gift. We love them more than life itself and we wouldn't trade them for the world, but they're not easy. They will change your life, for better and for worse, but mostly for the better. Just get used to midnight snuggles, cleaning litter boxes, and a tiny gremlin that never stops attacking your feet as you walk by. And if you don't believe us, we've got 24 funny feline photos below that demonstrate exactly that.

If there's one way to always find your cat that's hiding, it's to mention food. Or shake their food bowl. Basically, anything revolving around food should work. Cats are master manipulators, but they are easily manipulated by food if you have the right stuff. The sound of a can (any can, we could be opening chickpeas and it would still work) opening sends our cats flying to our location at the speed of light.

Sir, where did you get that whole, raw chicken? That certainly wasn't ours, so you must have stolen it from someone, so, bad kitty! Stealing is wrong, and if you're going to steal something, couldn't you steal something useful? Like gold bars or watches? Now we have to clean up raw chicken juice from the floor and the couch. See? Not boring.
