Cat Lover: Why You Should Get A Cat
Are you a cat lover? Then read on to find out why you should get a cat!
Cats. Everybody always talks about how great dogs are, but what about cats?
Dog owners often like to say that cats are aloof and less affectionate. However, I’d argue that they’re just more independent and have a different method of showing affection. They’re just meant for a different type of character.
Now don’t take this as me turning this discourse into putting cats and dogs at odds with each other. I love both! It’s just, this time I want to express my appreciation for cats. So here are reasons why I think you’d love to have a cat:
Cat Lover: They’re independent
A cat’s independence makes them a lot more low maintenance! Perfect if you’re a busy student. They can be left alone for several hours, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t bond with them! It just means they know how to enjoy solitary time.
Subtle Affection
Many dog owners express their distaste for cats being “less affectionate.” But honestly, like dogs, cats are different from one another! Some cats can be as affectionate as a dog, licking their humans out of affection. But most often, cats show their affection through purring, grooming, or rolling around you! Cats also do this thing called “bunting” where they rub their head on you- it’s their way of showing trust.
Pest Control
In the olden days, cats were used to kill vermin. Despite their domestication, cats still have that killer instinct to kill pests. Cats are a great way of getting rid of roaches and rats without having to do the work yourself.
Calming Presence
Call me biassed, but I do genuinely feel calm when there’s a cat by my side. There’s just something so..serene and peaceful as they tuck their arms underneath themselves, close their eyes, and sway their tails.
Are you convinced? Then why not get a cat? Of course, there are considerations before you could just, impulsively decide to get a cat. Nonetheless, they are pets that are worth your time.
