Today is National Respect Your Cat Day, But a Survey Shows We Might Respect Them a Little Too Much

Today is National Respect Your Cat Day, because of course it is.  But I’m not sure we needed a holiday to remind us to respect our cats.  According to a new survey of cat owners, we might just respect them a little TOO MUCH already.  Check this out . . .

 

1.  64% say they’d rather spend a quiet night alone with their cat than their significant other.

 

2.  37% say their cat “gets them” better than most of their actual human friends, and 40% would rather spend time with their cat than those friends.

 

3.  80% think they understand their cat just from its different meows.

 

4.  And one in five use their cat as an excuse to get out of doing things.
