The Joy of Having a Cat as a Pet
I will be writing about the excitements of having a cat as a pet in this article. It took a little more than just persuasion from my wife for me to let in a cat in our home and now we have three of them. Cats are less troublesome as they add values and love to every household, reasons why I will recommend other people to let them in their home.
Financially we are stable, plus cat’s foods are not expensive too, now I puzzled why I was a bit hesitant to have a cat as a pet. I think I was being a bit stupid as I was wrong to think of how they will ruin my furniture with “pooh” and “pee” as this is not the case.
Their schedule on a good day is, they wake up from where ever the slept, it’s usually our dining room which is now the cats room. After which they are fed their breakfast in this dining room turn cat’s room. In this room, we have place litter boxes around for them which they hardly use. The will prefer to go out of the house if the weather is good and do their usual sunbath.
Around 12noon, lunch is ready and all the cats will come in for yet another cat food. I don’t cease to wonder how they don’t seem to get bored eaten the same food over and over. After lunch come a nap as they will sleep somewhere in the house for some time in a lovely and private manner.
By 5pm, they will eat again and get more socialized if the feel safe with the companion they see around in the living room. At this point, they will love to be friendly and even sleep on somebody’s lap. Funny enough they always have a family member whose lap is their favorable resting point and in my case it is my little girl Laura.
Truly, cats are lovely as they will wonder out around the house by 10 pm to see if our safety is guaranteed, before returning later to sleep without closing their eyes nor ears.
The cats are not really a problem, so for Christmas this year, we are planning to let them have their own cat to look after them.
I use to think am lucky with these 3 cats but judging from friends and family’s remark, I think these creatures are God’s sent for human companionship. Some may need a bit more attention and affection but still they remain loyal and lovely.
