5 Reasons Why People Love Cats

Almost everyone loves dogs. I get that, they're cute, lovable, and give humans LOTS of attention. However, we often forget about the other little furry friends that make our hearts melt; cats! They get a bad wrap, but us cat lovers all know that they're just misunderstood!

I mean look at that face! Cats are simply adorable. Whether they are snuggling up to you or playing with yarn, watching them makes your heart melt. The furry little paws and their cute button noses has to pull on your heart strings!

The best cuddlers.

Cats get an extremely bad wrap, being labeled as "mean" and "distant". Even though they are definitely independent, they still love affection and cuddles. They're soft fur and little bodies make for the perfect hugs. Other animals may give you the same amount of affection, or more, but none compares to them!

They have to choose you.

We all know dogs love to love their owners, but they also love everyone they come in contact with. Cats on the other hand, have to choose you. They're cautious and observant, which is a lot more human like than almost any other pet. They may not pick you all the time, but when they do you cherish it that much more. They almost make you feel special in a way!

They're hilarious.

Everyone has seen the viral funny cat videos, whether they are banging into a wall or jumping at the sights of cucumbers, they are always keeping us on our toes and cracking up! There is no better pass time than watching your cat knock down your pens or popping out of boxes.

They're low maintenance.

Even though they have extreme poise and stick their noses up to quite a few things, they are actually very low maintenance. They don't eat a whole bunch and they never beg. They also do not require lots and lots of attention and they sleep a lot throughout the day. All in all, they are perfect for a single, busy life-style, for people who are on the go!

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?
