Forbes Living, along with most of the nation, loves
cats. The little furry creatures are the
single most popular pet in the country.
But the age-old question remains:
do you adopt cats or do they adopt you?
And who's really in charge in a household full of felines? Here are some signs that your home is run by
your cats. One of the primary signs is
multiple litter boxes, some kept in relatively unusual or inconvenient
spots. That signifies the home of
someone who has surrendered to the inevitable and would rather place a
preemptive litter box at the site of a previous calamity, than to be repeatedly
cleaning up messes.
Forbes Living salutes lovers of the feline species who build their lives around their pets.
The Forbes Living TV show recognizes another
"tell-tail" sign that the cats are in charge: they sleep where they want to, you adapt to
them. Whether a favorite spot in the
sunlight, a cushion on the couch, the claiming of a part of the bed or your
computer keyboard, Cats will snooze where they feel like at any given moment
and their well-trained humans will just have to work around them. Finally, the expensive, designer-fashioned
cat tree, purchased so that your felines might spare your fine furniture and
other decor, usually dominates the style of your home. However, usually the scratching post is in a
pristine state while the lower sections of the sofa, chairs and even wood
furniture are shredded almost beyond recognition. All of this, we endure for the occasional lap
session of petting and a nurturing rub against our legs. These critters usually know when we're
feeling down, and will come to us and brighten our lives when we need it most. For that, we can grant them the run of the
house.
