I'm not saying that I'm a cat person.

Honestly, I'm pretty sure that I'm a dog person. But regardless of that, cats are UNDOUBTEDLY the best pet to have as a college student. If you're not sure about getting a cat, read ahead to be convinced beyond the shadow of a doubt!

They're heckin' cute.

There's nothing better than coming home to a cute, furry little creature after a long day of class.

They're actually pretty good cuddlers.

Sometimes you just need some animal therapy. Cuddling a cat can be just the cure you're looking for.

They're natural masseurs and masseuses.

'Nuff said.

They're automatically litter-trained.

Having a litter box sucks, but what sucks even more? Having to take a dog outside to pee. And if you don't? The accidents that happen around the house.

They're not ALWAYS up in your grill.

Cats don't HAVE to be near you the same way that a dog does. They can go hang out by themselves.

They can pretty much take care of themselves.

Forget to feed them? No worries. Going out of town for a few days? They're good.

Accidentally pass out at a party and don't come home? No big.

They're really entertaining.

Need a study break? Watch your little furry friend run around.

If you want them to be all up in your grill, they can be.

If you need them, they're there with the unconditional love that comes with being their food-person.

And if all these GIFs didn't convince you...

You can do this.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life.
