Owning Cats Can Inflict Permanent Damage To Mental Health But Nobody Bothered To Warn Us.

1. We have entire conversations with them where we talk back to ourselves in the cat’s pretend voice

2. We've somehow accepted the fact that something's going to be destroyed every time we come home

3. We trick ourselves into thinking they love picture time, even though photo evidence says otherwise

5. 80% of our phone’s pictures are of our cats, but we don't upload them to facebook because everyone already thinks we're nuts


9. And we don't stop petting until we're allowed to



10. We feel deeply hurt when we actually want their affection.

11. We let them hunt every extremity on our body
