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.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
