I Love This Cat

There's no better life than being a cat. They're born mature. They don't flake around with the stupid stuff. They just get on with flippin' life like they've been living it forever. They don't sweat the big stuff because they don't care. They sleep during the day and live it up at night--the way it should be. They rest when they need to. They let people know when they don't want to be screwed around with. Cats are sincere. They don't fake their emotions. When they're pissed, they'll let everyone know. When they're bored, they yawn. When they're interested, they play. When they're hungry they eat. When they need relief, they head to the litter box. They don't shower. They don't read. They sometimes watch TV. They don't curse. They don't yell. They don't cry. They sometimes like companionship. When they want to be alone, they find a dark corner. They're brilliant in ever regard. They're low maintenance. They're high on appearances. They don't need groceries. They don't need shoes. They like to watch birds. They dream when it's necessary. Brilliant. They don't make comparisons. They don't set expectations. They don't filter their disappointments. Brilliant. They don't pull punches. They don't insinuate. They don't teeter or totter or flip or flop. They're rock-solid steady. Brilliant. They warm a lap. They chill a fear. They jump when they need to get high. There's no downside to owning a cat. There's no hidden secrets. They are what they are. Wish I could say the same for myself or anyone else I know.
