16 Reasons You Know You're A Crazy Cat Mom
Kaitlin Schutz

During the summer of 2017, I went to the local Humane Society and adopted a cute black kitten and named him Sullivan. He drives me nuts quite often, but he also brings me so much joy. Being a cat mom is something I am proud to be.

Here are 16 reasons you know you're a crazy cat mom (featuring pictures of my adorable cat, Sullivan):

1. You have absolutely no privacy.

Kaitlin Schutz

If your cat is anything like mine, your cat feels the need to be all up in your business. On the toilet? In the shower? Your cat will be watching you!

2. You have to cat-proof your home.

Kaitlin Schutz

Cats enjoy getting into everything possible. My cat particularly likes getting into my kitchen cabinets, drawers, and refrigerator. I have literally had to buy child proof latches because my cat just won't stop!

3. Leave something out?  Your cat will get into it.

Kaitlin Schutz

Your cat gets a kick out of doing this on purpose. Mine will look at me while knocking my vitamin containers off the counter. Sometimes he also has fun unraveling a whole roll of toilet paper just because he feels like it.

4. There's cat hair everywhere.

Kaitlin Schutz

Vacuums are your best friend when you are a cat mom.

5. Your significant other and your cat battle for your attention.

Kaitlin Schutz

You love both your cat and significant other..but if you give one of them too much attention, the other one will try to change that.

6. You always get woken up in the middle of the night.

Kaitlin Schutz

Its 3am. You're asleep. All is peaceful. Then out of nowhere your cat decides to run all over the place and destroy everything in its path. Awesome.

7. Your cat is always hungry.

Kaitlin Schutz

You just fed your cat an hour ago, but the cat is somehow already hungry again.

8. Your kitty gives you attitude.

Kaitlin Schutz

Your cat can literally be sweet one minute, then want to bite your finger off the next. Cats are kind of like sour patch kids: sour, then sweet...then sour again.

9. You always have entertainment.

Kaitlin Schutz

Cats do some crazy stuff and are constantly entertaining us.

10. Everyone who knows you knows you're obsessed with your cat.

Kaitlin Schutz

You're always sharing pictures and videos of your cat on social media because everything your cat does is cute.

11. Your cat is preparing you for parenthood.

Kaitlin Schutz

Cats feel like our children because they are so dependent on us and require a lot of love and attention.

12. Nothing is better than coming home from class or work and having your cat looking out the window waiting for you!

Kaitlin Schutz

It is so sweet when your cat acknowledges your presence when you come home.

13. TV time? Yes, please.

Kaitlin Schutz

Nights spent watching the latest season of "The Bachelor" with your cat are the best kinds of nights.

14. You talk to your cat like you would a person.

Kaitlin Schutz

Frustrated about your exams? Mad at your friend? Excited about some good news you just got? Confide in your kitty for all of your venting and gossiping needs!

15. You always have a nap buddy.

Kaitlin Schutz

Taking a nap with your cat after a long day is the best.

16. No matter how much your cat my get on your nerves, you are happy and proud to be their cat mom!

Kaitlin Schutz

I love my cat so much and wouldn't trade him for anything!

So yeah, I am a crazy cat mom and proud of it!

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.
