15 Realities All Cat Owners Have To Accept Eventually

Being a cat owner takes a lot of work. Not only do you have to clean the litter box daily, but you never know what will happen throughout the day. If you have a cat, you know that they can be very quirky and entertaining. One second they can be completely relaxed, and by the time you blink it's like they just took a double shot of espresso. Here are 15 things that cat owners know to be true.


1. There is never personal space.

2. You don't need to set an alarm.

3. You never know if your cat wants to be pet or if he just wants to bite you.

4. Lint rollers are a necessity.

5. This is how you imagine cuddling with your cat.

6. But this is what it's actually like.

7. This is your cat when the vacuum cleaner is out.

8. You know exactly where your cat is if the blinds are open.

9. You don't need to buy a bed because they'll literally sleep on anything.

10. You either have cats or plants, but NEVER both.

11. For some reason, cats think this means empty.

12. This happens every time you try to study.

13. They're never bored because everything is a toy.

14. You never know if you're the prey or predator.

15. They may be weird, but you gotta love em.

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
