What are the advantages and disadvantages of owning a cat?

Domestic cats have gradually become the first choice for domestic pets. Especially in cities, more and more people keep cats, perhaps for companionship or just for love … But do you really know the advantages and disadvantages of keeping cats?

According to the shovel officer's years of experience, I'll tell you what are the advantages and disadvantages of owning a cat.

Disadvantages:

One dollar.

Cat litter money 200-500-10-100-200 monthly uncapped grain; Physical examination, vaccine, insect repellent, sterilization, cat litter basin, cat climbing frame, cat bath, cat toys, etc. Add up to 1000, and the base number is not capped; It's very expensive to see a doctor when you are sick and have a disaster. Cats have no medical insurance. It's 300- no cap, and so on …

Second, demolish the house.

Kittens, in particular, pushed down the sundries and open shelves on the table, and parkour knocked things into a mess in the house, grabbing sofas, furniture, eating plants and catching goldfish. Cats have no malice, just nature+playing high and not paying attention.

Three injuries.

Cat owners don't have many scratches. It may be better for the breed cat to be relatively docile, but it can't be prepared for the tragedy of parkour jumping directly on its owner when it is crazy, or it is scared by noise such as vacuum cleaner and hair dryer, which is wild. If you don't teach it well as a child, it may be common to scratch and bite your master.

Four hairs.

Short-haired cats are better, and long-haired cats are simply depilatory monsters. Long-haired white cats are even more terrible. As long as you buy dark clothes, you should choose clothes and fabrics carefully, or you will be covered with hair every day. When you go out in the morning, you will use a sticky roller or electrostatic brush or rubber strip to clean it for a long time. Going out in the sun will still be a layer of hair.

Five internal organs

Cats are very clean animals, and they can't go out without smelling them. Actually, they are much cleaner than dogs. But ah, is there no dead angle in the house? Cats like to drill everywhere, under the bed, on the top of the cupboard, where dust accumulates. Cats come here every day. It's a flexible hair duster, which scrapes off all the dust and then rubs it on your bed and sofa. Even if the cat licks her fur every day, can you be sure that she can clean it up immediately before she comes to you after dusting? No way, she may be licking her ass one minute and kissing you the next. Cat litter is all over the floor. I don't have to tell you. Anyway, for people with sensitive nasal cavity, cats lose hair and dust, and cat excrement still stinks. There are also some kinds of cats, whose glass stomachs are prone to diarrhea, and they will always come to play with you and step on the small brown plum blossoms on your sofa. Is it sour and refreshing?

Six ideas.

Cats can be kept, don't think too much. Take the free-range rural cats for example, other families can solve the leftovers, and if they are not nutritious enough, they can find extra food outside. However, raising cats in cities is a very troublesome thing for families. The degree of food and clothing should be planned according to the cat's own situation and the actual situation of the family.

7. Affect family relationships.

Macroscopically, the number of cats in China is increasing, but it doesn't mean that more and more people accept cats. In most people's families, the elders are very disgusted with children owning cats. They may think that cats are full of bacteria and infectious diseases, and cats will stink at home. They may even have the view that "cats = Toxoplasma gondii". Therefore, in order to let the cat live a life that is not "annoying", it is necessary to discuss with family and husband and wife.

Benefits:

First, cultivate a sense of responsibility and patience.

Cat owners are more Buddhist, have better personalities and are more free. Moreover, to some extent, raising a cat is similar to raising a child. You need to take good care of everything about cats. From diet to hygiene to play, everything is essential. Cats will lose their hair if they eat salty food, have diarrhea if they eat it wrong, and clean the litter box every day, all of which require parents' patience.

Second, owning a cat makes you work harder.

Cleaning the room once a week before raising a cat and cleaning the floor once a day after raising a cat is not only to clean cat hair, but more importantly, to give cats a clean and hygienic living environment. Before raising a cat, three meals a day were takeout, and there was never a fire at home. After raising a cat, I still eat takeout, but I cook for my master.

Third, companionship.

Cats can accompany you through some difficult days. They will comfort you silently and lie quietly on their master's lap. I always feel that they know everything, but they can't talk. It's warm every day with the company of cats.

Fourth, increase the fun of life.

The brain circuits of cats are very strange. They will do many things that make people laugh and cry. Sometimes I am as naive as a child, and sometimes I am like a fool. Keeping a cat adds countless fun to my life.

Keeping cats indoors is the best choice for otaku and otaku.

When many people keep a pet, the thought of taking it out every day after raising a dog, rain or shine, instantly extinguished the heart of wanting to have a dog. Cats are not that troublesome. Cats can stay indoors all their lives, and it is enough to stay at home every day. For people who don't like to go out and are lazy, this is the best.

Sixth, increase the charm of the owner.

Boys with cats live better than boys without cats. Although this is a stereotype, cat owners are really keen and considerate.

It should be noted that cats are not tools to pick up girls, but life. Don't keep it casually on a whim, which is more likely to cause disgust than not keeping it.

Seven, raising cats is good for physical and mental health.

It is said that owning a cat can make people feel better, but practice has proved that owning a cat can really bring physical benefits to the owner, reduce the pressure of the owner and relieve anxiety. Some experiments show that when the owner touches the cat, his heart will unconsciously stabilize, his blood pressure will decrease and his mood will gradually stabilize, so owning a cat can really bring great benefits to the owner.

In a word, raising a cat is not an easy task. The longer you keep it, the deeper your feelings, and the more time, energy and money you invest. I don't recommend keeping a cat on impulse. If you do this, you will be responsible to the end. If you can accept it completely, then you can raise it! Suitability is far more important than liking! All cats are cats, regardless of rank, and their feelings are priceless!
