This is a post where I whine about things...
I want a cat.
Well, I've always loved cats and dogs, and always planned on having at least one of each "when I'm grown up" - but, alas, I seem to have grown up and there are no dogs or cats. It's always been at the back of my mind, but lately it's just...really impossible to ignore.
I really, really want a cat.
I still love dogs, but I'm not suited to taking care of a dog. If I'm going to be honest with myself, I don't think I could give a dog the kind of exercise it will definitely need, which will not be for the best for the dog. I mean, cats need exercise, too, especially if they're indoor only, but that doesn't really involve going out rain or shine and scooping poop off the grass.
Plus there's something really appealing about cats. I dunno, I think my personality is more suited towards a cat. We have a lot of preferences in common, for the most part. Plus they go in a litter box and groom themselves, and I love their little whiskers and their tiny little furry feet.
Lol, it's a little funny that I'm feeling this urge to get a cat (an adult one) when I've just moved in to a no-pet studio apartment with 11.5 more months to go on my lease. To be honest, most of the clean, safe apartment complexes in my area are all no-pets; I don't see myself being able to have a pet, cat or dog, until I either become filthy rich or decide to compromise my safety.
I think it's doomed to remain a dream unfulfilled.
