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

In This Article:

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

The .gif is me when I get back home and am looking for my fur-baby.

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.

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

For better or for worse

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
