Cats are the best. That is a fact, no ifs, and, or buts about it. Cats are cute, cuddly, quirky, and they can out-sass just about anyone. But there is a fine line between being a cat lover and being the infamous "crazy cat lady."
Here are some signs that you may have crossed that line. Welcome to the cat side.
1. You post more about your cat(s) on social media than you post about yourself.
Whether it's Snapchat, Instagram, or Facebook, all of your followers will know all too well that you love your cat. You will go to great lengths to get an adorable picture so that you can prove to everyone that your cat really is cuter than all of the others.
2. Your cat goes everywhere with you.
Okay, maybe taking your cat skydiving with you is a little extreme, but you get the picture. If you're a crazy cat person, then you've probably tried taking your cat for a walk on a leash or taking them for a ride in the car. Or, if you're like me, you'll take your cat to your parents' house with you for the holidays because you can't bear the thought of them being alone on Christmas.
3. Your cat has more toys than most children.
Your cat has an endless supply of expensive cat toys, including ones that chirp, light up, and move on their own. But no matter how many fancy toys you buy your cat, they will still choose to play with some old twist-tie that they found under the couch. That doesn't stop you from buying more cat toys, though.
4. Your cat has their own spot on your bed.
There is a special spot reserved for your cat and it's probably right in the middle of the bed. You'll contort your body and bend into weird shapes around your cat so that you won't disturb their cute little slumber.
5. You always feed your cat table scraps.
No matter how fat your cat is getting, you just can't say no to that cute little face! You'll be eating your dinner when, suddenly, you see your cat's face innocently peek up over the table and you just can't resist.
6. You try to pet every stray cat that you see.
You'll chase cats down the street trying to pet them and your heart will break every time that they scurry away, trying to escape your love.
7. You leave cat food on your porch.
You just want to feed that one stray cat that you've been seeing on your street, so you leave a bowl of cat food outside. Two weeks later you've got fifty cats living on your porch and you name every single one of them. They are your cats now.
8. You always talk about your cat.
You can't help it! Your cat did the cutest thing yesterday and you have to share it with everyone that you talk to!
9. You immediately bond with other crazy cat people.
Finally, someone who won't judge you for your obsession. You show each other all of the cat pictures that you have on your phone and talk about all of the adorable habits that your cats have.
10. You would rather stay at home with your cat all weekend.
Who wouldn't enjoy spending time snuggled up to your cat on the couch all weekend? They're warm, cuddly, and they don't talk. They're the perfect company!
11. You dream of your cat becoming the next internet sensation.
One day the world will know how adorable your cat is and you'll be making big bucks from it, too. Now if only you could come up with something as stupidly clever as the Keyboard Cat.
12. You watch cat videos in your spare time.
What is a better way to spend your time than by watching dancing cats or watching them be spooked by those sneaky cucumbers?
13. You prefer to spend your time with cats instead of socializing.
Cats are the perfect friends for introverts because there is no talking involved in your relationship. Sleep, snuggles, and food are all that you will ever need.
14. You get distracted by your cat's cuteness.
It took me forever to write this article because my cat is snoring next to me with his paw over his face and I just can't stop staring at him. My cat is cuter than yours.
