10 Reasons You Might Be A "Closet Cat Person"

1. You Have RBF


Ah yes, the “resting bitch face”. A lot of women have it, and even some men, but ALL cats have it. Cats just always look like they’re in a pissy mood.

2. You Don’t Like Being Bossed Around


Cats really don’t like being told what to do. Most times they will do exactly what you told them not to do, but they just seem to enjoy it more.

3. You L-O-V-E Sleep


Cats sleep the day away. Literally a cat sleeps like 16 to 20 hours a day. Oh man, what a wonderful life a cat lives.

4. You Like Affection, But Only On Your Own Terms


Cats love to be loved…but as soon as they’re “over it” you will know. They get a little bitey, hissey, and rude. Hmm...I know some people like that.

5. You Like Shiny Things


Cats are drawn to shiny things, kinda like birds. A cat will sit and stare at a shiny object for a lengthy amount of time and they also seem to like shiny toys better. My kitten loves to play with these shiny little foil-like toy balls that are really shiny.

6. You’re Always On Your Own Time


A cat can never be rushed. They operate on their own schedule with no apologies, even if it inconveniences someone. They have a “stick it to the man” attitude when it comes to time.

7. You’re The Best At Irritating People And You Take Pride In It


Cats seem to do things to intentionally irritate people. For example, if somehow a cat finds out that you don’t really like them, then that’s all they need to know in order to want to be your best friend. You will find them on your lap, at your feet, or basically anywhere you are.

8. You’re Adorable When You’re Angry


Even when a cat is ridiculously angry, like hair-standing-up angry, they’re super cute. They pull off angry with style.

9. You’re Independent


Cats seem to be convinced that they don’t need humans. Basically, they could just take care of themselves without any help from you or anyone else. They like to do things on their own.

10. You Go After What You Want


Whether it’s chasing after a toy, playing with your shoelace, or jumping onto the table, you can always rely on a cat to do exactly, and only, what it wants.

So, if you relate to most of these, then you are most definitely a “closet cat person”. There’s no shame in it, cats are adorable.

There are a lot of really easy, common names in the U.S. and while many of those simple names have different spellings, most of the time, pronunciation is not an issue that those people need to worry about. However, others are not as fortunate and often times give up on corrections after a while. We usually give an A+ for effort. So, as you could probably imagine, there are a few struggles with having a name that isn’t technically English. Here are just a few…

Puerto Ricans. They are very proud people and whether they were born on the island or born in the United States by Puerto Rican parent(s). It gets even better when they meet another fellow Puerto Rican or Latino in general. You’ll know quickly if they are Puerto Rican whether the flag is printed somewhere on their person or whether they tell you or whether the famous phrase “wepa!” is said.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.
