When people wonder why I prefer animals to children: - My cats have never kicked off at me and told me they hate me - They've never said anything mean - They don't press my buttons just because they can - They're grateful for everything I do for them and reward me with unconditional love - They don't make me angry or stress me out - I have never once thought to myself: "I'm fed up with this." - They don't bleed me dry and make constant demands
