Cats aren’t arrogant, they’re just better than us.

We have two rescue cats. It is truly heartwarming to drive up to our house and see a cat in the window waiting for me. I am just naturally a bit melancholy, and I have lost parents and two siblings. Even though I have so much to be grateful for— a husband and beautiful children, for example, the additional blessing of having warm furry friends to greet me when I get home is a big comfort. I know our whole family is happier with them around.

Agreed. Nothing like a furry face greeting you at the door.

It has gotten better now that the weather has grown colder. Made it to 6:30 this morning!

Great pix, Slings. Thanks for the ping. ;-)

Now that Lucas Prince of Darkness has passed on, there are
too many female cats here. We need a couple more males.

We’re not ready yet, but the day will come before too long.

I have been owned by more than a dozen cats over the years, and my family are currently being permitted to share a home with two of these creatures.

I know from experience exactly how evil they are.

With that said, my post was intended as “Reason 16” for adopting a cat.

The worst part is that the furry alarm clock does not have a snooze button.

That is great! But I strongly suspect they all have the opposite version and use it on us all the time.

*It teaches you humility once you accept your position as a lower form of life.*

I trust the cat reaction to others. Dogs too.
