Discovering your inner feline

5 Ways You Can Identify With Cats
Business Insider

If you have ever had a cat or been around a feline friend, I am sure that you have somehow seen something in them that you love (unless you do not like cats). If you dislike cats, be prepared for your mindset to change, because they are awesome creatures. Here, you will find 5 ways that you can identify with cats, and maybe see yourself in them in more ways than you could have imagined.

1. Laziness

Cats are notorious for being indolent creatures and you would be lying to yourself if you did not have a day in your life where you wanted to sit around and do nothing all day. I mean, how awesome would it be to eat and sleep all day long and have no responsibilities for a bit.

2. Being easily entertained

Kitties may be lazy, but they are easily entertained by the little things in life. Toy mice, yarn, real mice, and laser pointers are a few of the countless things that cats can find joy in at their paws. We are similar to this in many ways like the common TV show binge, video game addiction, and getting lost in social media for long periods of time.

3. Constant reaffirmation and affection

If you haven't noticed, cats either love or really really loathe being touched. If you come in contact with a cat that loves affection, do not take it for granted. Soak in the moment. If a kitty lets you in their bubble, take full advantage. We are similar to this in some ways. Us humans like affection when we want it, and in the case of cats they have claws to tell you to back off. Also, if you ever have the privilege of kitty kisses, they are very rare and cherished.

4. We can be a bit moody sometimes

Although we may love affection, like cats, we also like our personal space. Cats have a nice way of telling you to back off. They simply whip out their claws and scratch you until it hurts. I don't think they mean to be hurtful, they just like their bubble to remain intact and if it's popped, they will let you know. We can also be this way. We enjoy our personal space and if it is invaded, we won't scratch you with our claws, but a moody person may come out.

5. We love our food

If you have noticed, cats love food. Wet food, dry food, people food, and sometimes even prey they have hunted and returned to your door as a token of their love. Whichever way they get it, they love their food. Also like us, we love to eat different types of food. Fast food, expensive food, cold food, hot food, and food that we also like to hunt (aka deer, turkey, and fish). We share this trait and it is the best in my opinion.

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.

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.
