Owning a cat is probably one of the weirdest experiences you'll go through. You love an animal that hardly ever shows you any kind of remote affection, yet somehow you still find them to be the cutest little feline in the whole world. You live to make them happy, yet they act like you're their personal butler who never gets it right. It's a never ending cycle of love and hate. Although each of our little kittens is completely different, us cat owners all have the same struggles day in and day out. Even the most lovable feline has it's quirks so here's a list of things all of us go through every single day whether we like them or not.
1. The 4 a.m. 5k.
Seriously, what is this about? I need answers. I am rather tired of waking up to my cat knocking over every single item I own off the top of my dresser because she's "bored."
2. Cat vs. house plants.
They cannot coexist. Period.
3. The key to life? LINT ROLLERS.
I own so many of these things that it's kind of ridiculous. But what's even more ridiculous? I still seem to always have cat hair on me.
4. Sleeping cat vs. full bladder.
I think all cats have this little radar in their brain so they can detect when our bladder is about to rupture. They come and fall asleep right on your lap in the cutest possible position they can think of. This is clearly the ultimate way to show their passive aggression.
5. "The Stare".
This is the same look they give when you fill the food container, clean the litter box, eat any meat, sleep, use the bathroom, turn on the vacuum, and scold them — just about anything honestly. Still scary every time.
6. Christmas decorations?
No, I own a cat sorry. . . we don't celebrate Christmas with a tree or decorations or even scented candles honestly. They break everything.
7. The number of toys my cat owns could never amount to her love for the boxes they come in.
I really don't understand her, and yet I continue to spend the money. It's insane.
8. Venting to your cat.
I swear I'm not the only one who does this. Yes, I know realistically they probably can't understand me but tell me that after she meows when I say "You know what I mean?" She totally understands me.
9. "Did you just call her a pet?!"
I'm sorry, but my little one is not a pet. She is a part of the family who I spend more time and money on than anyone else. Don't offend either of us like that again.
10. She's crazy. . . but I love her
No matter how much I hate cleaning up the messes she makes or all the times she's "spazzed" on me for absolutely no reason, I still love her so much. Even if she is bat s*%t crazy.
