10 Reasons You Might Be A "Closet Cat Person"

You might not like cats, but do you relate to them?

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.

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.
