Five Reasons Cats Make My World Go 'Round

Five Reasons Cats Make My World Go 'Round
Cat Effect Blog

The ultimate question: "Are you a cat person or a dog person?" While I love both, my soul really lays with my feline friends. There's something about cats that makes my world go 'round, and I am sure so many of you can relate. Here are five reasons I reply with "most definitely cat," when asked if I am a cat person or a dog person:

1. They head butt.

For whatever reason, a cat's signature move is to head butt humans. (OK... It is actually a natural behavior of our feline friends as a result of scent glands being all over their body.) BUT, I like to think of it as a big "I love you."

2. They really don't need much to be happy — an empty box will do.

Let's be honest... it takes a lot of hard work to please other pets. Heck, it takes a lot of work to please people! But cats? You can go out, buy a new pair of shoes then give them the empty box and they'll be happy as can be.

3. The laws of physics are non-existent in cat world.

Somehow, cats always land on their feet and can fit in basically any space, no matter how small. I am not a fan of science, so naturally the fact that cats bend the laws of physics makes my world a happier place.

4. They sleep 2/3 of their lives.

Goals, right? I mean, think about it. By the time a cat is nine years old, it has only been awake for 3 years. That is some SERIOUS napping. These sleeping habits also pretty much guarantee that cats are always down for Netflix 'n Chill with their human.

5. They intentionally ignore you.

As much as I love attention from my cat, it is oddly refreshing when I call her name and she turns the other way. I am a sassy being and it only makes sense to have a pet that is equally as sassy.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

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?

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.
