10 Things You Say To Your Fur-Baby On A Daily Basis

I often find myself awake in the middle of the night, while my fur child is running laps around my bedroom and I just think to myself... "Why?"

10 Things You Say To Your Fur-Baby On A Daily Basis
Elizabeth Clark

So many people nowadays, college-aged or otherwise, own a pet. Obviously, the most popular animals you see are dogs and cats. I own a kitten, her name is Daisy and she is the best.

Seriously, I will fight you if you disagree with me.

Recently, I've found myself repeating some phrases. And I've also seen on social media that other people think the same way and hold pretty much the exact same or slightly altered one-sided conversations with their fur-baby.

Like these:

1. Let. Me. Sleep.

Giphy

Like, it's four in the morning. Let me go back to sleep, I don't want to play with you. You don't need food right now. Stop chewing my hair.

2. Can you not? 

Giphy

You looked me dead in the eye and did the thing I specifically told you not to do. Like... can you not?

3. Are you comfortable like that?

Animals are known to place themselves in very odd positions. Whenever I find Daisy in one of them, the only thing I can ever ask anymore is: "Are you comfortable???"

4. I literally just bought that and you already destroyed it. 

Giphy

How rude.

5. You can't eat this, you won't like it. 

Giphy

Mother knows best.

6. What are you chewing on?

Giphy

Please don't swallow it. Please don't swallow it. Please don't swallow it.

7. Why are you like this?

Giphy

You're actually the dumbest. No other cat/dog/other but you would get themselves into this situation.

8.  *Pats down next to self* Come snuggle.  

Giphy

9. Don't go anywhere, I'm just going to the store. I'll be home soon. 

Giphy

10. Mommy/Daddy loves you. 

Giphy

*Refers to pet as child in any given scenario*

Please tell me I'm not the only one who does this. I need that kind of reassurance in my life.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

It is no secret that many American traditions have changed over time. As we grow older we change in so many ways that it only makes sense that we also change the way we celebrate special occasions. Of course when it comes to the holidays there are some family traditions that many of us still excitedly look forward to, whether it is eating your favorite dish or seeing favorite cousin. However, we all know that the holidays have overall changed a little from what they used to be.
