1. Noun. An small furry animal that ignores you when you want to pet it, and bothers you endlessly when you're trying to
get shit done, or when it's hungry. Cats are generally even tempered and calm. They spend most of their adult life sleeping and eating. Cats require little energy, as all they ask for is a bowl of food twice a day and a warm place to sleep. You do not need to walk a cat or spend hours a day spending time with it. Cats are excellent animals for dorm or apartment life, and are perfect for people with busy lifestyles. They adapt to change quickly and require little money to keep. Cats can reduce stress levels, as there is nothing more relaxing than watching and petting a warm,
sleepy cat. If you do not feed your cat too much, it will also keep your home relatively free of vermin, including mice, rats, a few roaches,
moths, flies, and anything else it can catch. Be warned though, cats have a
genetic attraction to computer keyboards. They will often walk around/sleep on a keyboard, and have a tendency to push the delete or
backspace button (A cat once deleted half my term paper by doing this.) However, the bad behaviors of a cat are greatly outnumbered by the good. A cat will bring 5 joys for every one mad (
lolspeak). Many are in need of a good home, so please go get yourself a cat.
