Fair point. But I challenge you to find a single downside to cats...
Right. I'm going out and buying a guitar as soon as these shops reopen. Not sure I can afford a cello! You've inspired me. Thanks... Genuinely!
It seems your post already got derailed because most pleasures in life carry consequences, especially mine. And absolutely cats as well! With cats you have to worry about their health and wellbeing, it's a horrible horrible side effect of having furbabies. I have 2 young male cats and they constantly cry to go outside. So I'm the babysitter I sit outside with them for hours each night. I'm always worried and panicking about them getting hit by cars. If you lock them indoors they cry and howl at the door. My old female cat was addicted to food, she would demand half my meat whenever I ate it. Even my small pets, health problems, anytime you find an abnormal growth or something bad happening, your whole world gets crushed. It's like noo! What the fuck is THAT??? Oh nooo vet trip again stressful expensive etc
But I'll still list my stuff even though each one is bad
Drugs
Sweet foods depending on which one I am obsessed with
Cats
Watching insects and nature (I get shamed over it by robotic sheeple, and nature is cruel)
Feeding wildlife and playing with them (its just bad they can get hit by cars while traveling to you, and they fight each other)
Sleeping (oversleeping is bad hurts my back)
Smoking cigarettes
