Desperate cat lover

Sometimes, particularly in the afternoon, I feel bored in the office. I would take a look at videos of cats in YouTube because I don't have a real one at home to go to and receive a big hug from. I love cats but we can't keep one in the house until I am sure that I will not be pregnant anymore (pregnant women who have no immunity to toxoplasmose is advised to stay away from cats). All I can do now is to watch them on videos and on my neighbours' balconies and windows. How desperate!

My favourites are those with dark and short hair and athletic body types. No, I'm not talking about men. I like for example, the french breed called Chartreux and the british shorthair. With shorter and darker hair, their features are more distinct.

Cats are beautiful animals but having them as pets come with responsibilities. They are not merely some soft toys and we should be aware of that before jumping into the decision of adopting them. It would be a learning experience for both adults and children that pets are living creatures and should be treated with care and responsibility. I read in a cat adoption site that certain cats get along well with children. I like the idea that both the children and the pet keep each other company and at the same time the children learn to appreciate and treat living creatures with care.


I like animals in general. I think that God is such a genius that he created them so beautifully and sprinkled them all over as decorations on the earth. I mean, not literally decorations but essentially, they beautify nature. That's what nature consists of, isn't it? Flora and fauna.
