If you have spent time around kids and cats, chances are you might have noticed quite a few similarities between the two. We don’t have a cat, but I had a few growing up and one day I was thinking about how similar cats and kids are.
- Their toys always end up under the couch. And you are the one who has to retrieve them.
- You sometimes wake up in the middle of the night with one of them staring at you in a creepy manner.
- You spend money buying them cute and fancy toys, but they’d rather play with paper, boxes, and string.
- If you co-sleep, get ready to be very uncomfortable. Objects in bed are smaller than they appear.
- You might wake up with one of them sitting on your face.
- You can’t eat without one of them begging for a bite of whatever you are eating.
- They often turn their nose up at the food you put on their plate.
- You can’t have nice things. Furniture, walls, floors….they are all fair game.
- They give the best cuddles one minute, but then refuse to be touched the next.
- You will not be able to get away with not cleaning up some form of bodily fluid. It’s gonna happen.
- Closed doors? Unacceptable! Get ready for scratches/knocks on the door, crying, and little hands/paws feeling around under the door.
- Sometimes you have NO CLUE what is going on in their little heads and it drives both of you crazy.
- They are super cute when they sleep.
- They randomly wake up in the middle of the night with crazy amounts of energy.
- They have imperious attitudes. Seriously, we are pretty much here to serve them and should be thankful for the opportunity.
- Finally, no matter how difficult they can be, you can’t imagine not having them around.
