Depending on my income over the next year or so, I will most likely be moving out of my dear mother and father's happy home and into an apartment complex of my choosing. When I do so I will be getting a room mate or an animal to share my life with. This blog post is just me weighing out the pros and cons of each of my options.
I would much prefer the company of a cat to the company of a human I think. My reasoning behind this particular view is that while humans are 'complex' creature with their 'deep emotion' and so called reasoning skills, cats are very basic creatures, with little to no need for interaction with different species or any species at all for that matter. That, and they don't talk back when you're complaining about all kinds of the most ludicrous things.
But why not a dog? Dogs don't talk back either. Well, yes but if I had to choose between a caring and affectionate slobbering idiot, and a cool, calm and collected companion I would be more inclined to choose the later.
And even if I did choose a dog; what could it give me that a cat could not? And if I didn't choose a cat or a dog what would my alternatives be?
A bunny rabbit? No, of course I wouldn't choose a rabbit. There are too many painful childhood memories involving rabbits.
A lizard? I'm fairly certain that I wouldn't choose that, because they are too simplistic.
Perhaps a snake? Although I already have a snake; My beloved Lucile. I'm sure that because of her age (13 years) she will most likely die before I move out. And to that I think getting an new snake would be grand. Maybe another ball python? Or a Milksnake... Yes, I think if I get another snake it would be a Milksnake named Riff Raff.
