11 Reasons Why You Shouldn't Have A Cat

Tiny, little balls of pure evil are no good to have.

11 Reasons Why You Shouldn't Have A Cat

Ever since humans domesticated cats thousands of years ago, it's been a downward spiral. Nothing that cute can ever be good, and it's honestly surprising how we haven't noticed by this point. Even though most of us know dogs are better, here are a few reasons why cats are just bad animals.

*Disclaimer: I actually love cats, and this is intended to be entirely comedic.

1. They have tiny feeties.

Any animal with small feet can't be up to any good. Think of all the bad things the can hide in there: like claws, baby slaps, and even love. That kind of unpredictability outweighs how cute those little footsies are.

2. They look better in sunglasses than you.

Even if you love your pet, no one wants to be shown up by them. Even worse—when you need your sunglasses back, you don't want to stop your kitty from look so cool.

3. They aren't good TV companions.

Try to watch TV with this little girl! Your cat may be cute and even give you a good laugh, but how are you supposed to finish that nature documentary? If you want one of these furry beasts, maybe stick to Netflix.

4. They don't eat their vegetables.

A healthy pet is a happy pet. In the case of cats, it's very hard to keep them healthy because they're scared of veggies. However, I understand cats for this, so maybe it's not that awful.

5. They will take your whole bed.

Sleep is necessary for life, but all the sleep you'll get with a cat won't be in the comfort of your bed any more.

6. They will take everything from you because they can.

Think about everything you own: They're all toys now. Start buying new shoelaces and shorts and getting ready to Instagram how cute these little devils are while they ruin your lives.

7. Like your cups? They'll be gone soon.

Cats are guaranteed to destroy the things you love after taking them because they don't matter to them. Glasses, artwork, candles, and more will break along with your heart when your little fluff creates chaos.

8. They can steal your man.

If you're having relationship troubles, a cat may be the last thing you need. If you're single, looking for a man, and love cats, the two might be found in the same place. So this is a plus.

9. They look better in Halloween costumes than you do.

Halloween is already hard with trying to fit in with your friends and other and to try to look good as well; this struggle isn't made any easier when your feline friend shows you up. This kitty looks so good.

10. They're better at origami than you probably are.

Just to taunt you, they'll throw their good work on the ground and swat a paw at it like it's nothing. Even if you perfect your art and give it to them as a present, they will probably do the same thing: again, everything is a toy.

11. They'll make you fall in love.

Look at that sinister grin. That cat knows the human is in their grip and can manipulate the person to do whatever. Stay away from corrupt and clever cats before you fall in love with their charming, cutesy-wootsie selves.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
