Should I Get a Cat?

Are you tired of being alone? Do you yearn for companionship and unconditional love?

Cons:

You'll have to spend money on cat food, litter, and vet bills. It's like paying for a roommate, but without the benefits of having a roommate.

Costs: ~$50/month for cat food, ~$1000/year for vet bills, ~$50/month for cat toys and treats.

Cats can cause allergies, which can lead to sniffly eyes, runny noses, and a lifetime supply of tissues.

Costs: ~$100/year for allergy medication, ~$100/year for allergy shots.

Cats shed their fur everywhere, making you wonder if you're allergic to cleanliness.

Costs: ~$20/roll of carpet cleaner.

Cats will love you, no matter how many times you leave them alone for work or forget to feed them.

Benefits: Reduced stress, increased affection, and a constant companion.

Cats will be your constant companion, even if they just sleep 22 hours a day.

Benefits: Reduced loneliness, increased social interaction, and a sense of community (with other cat owners).

Cats can be quite the entertainers, whether it's chasing their own tails or knocking over a vase.

Benefits: Laughter, joy, and a good story to tell.
