Why I Support Your Decision To Like Both Cats And Dogs

It's OK to like both.

Often, people get hung up on the idea of being a dog person or a cat person. The idea of being one or the other has been proven to start conflict. Families torn apart, friends being betrayed, and (probably) the cause of wars being started. But I am here to propose a new idea. The idea of being both.

Stay with me now. I know what some people are thinking, how can someone like both when they are complete opposites? There are positives to each animal.

Cats are basically the definition of being independent and not needing no (hu)man. They need food, water, a place to sleep, and a litter box, and they will be physically content.

Dogs are just happy all the time. If there was a human that would be transformed into a representation of all the dogs in the world, it would be Ellen.

There are great things about both dogs and cats. So why is it so frowned upon for someone to like both? Instead of judging someone for what they like, or forcing someone to like one or the other, let's respect people decisions to like either one or even both.
After we get in a habit of supporting a dog and cat person, our society will hopefully get in the habit of being more open-minded and supportive of all human preferences.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

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. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
