Cat owners face a variety of prejudices: they routinely break their necks tripping over their cats, choke on pet hair every day and never get to sleep. That’s maybe a bit of an exaggeration. But these six problems – which are not meant to be taken seriously – are well known to every cat owner.
The truth is: If you have cats at home, you can count yourself among the happiest people around. Velvet paws enrich the everyday life of every animal lover. However, some habits take some getting used to.
Dangerous
The doorbell rings, and you run down the hall and almost break both your legs? Then surely your kitty was in the way again or had to run between your legs at that very moment.
Hair Alert!
Are you wondering why the drugstore debits 1,000 euros from your account every month? This is certainly due to the myriad of lint rollers you have to buy due to the cat dander that has spread everywhere. But cat owners know that you’re not properly dressed without a few cat hairs.
Sleep Late? I Do Not Know
Isn’t it nice when you are not woken up by the shrill alarm clock in the morning, but by an animal that loves you? Not when this happens at four in the morning, with tail, paw, and whiskers being alternately pushed up your nose.
Paper? What Was That Again?
Reminders, bills, and other unpleasant letters are no longer a problem for most cat owners. This is because any paper in the home is basically converted by your cat into a toy and distributed in scraps in every room.
Never Work Again
Sounds good! Cat owners will never have to work again. Unfortunately, this is not because they won the lottery, but because their cat prevents them from doing so. Whether it’s annoyed meowing when you want to go to the office in the morning or occupying the laptop – your cat will find ways to keep you from work.
Togetherness Was Once
Would you like to finally spend a romantic evening with your partner? Unfortunately, there is a problem. With a cat at home, togetherness usually becomes a threesome.
