a type of animal created to bother you every time because they feel superior and don’t give a fuck about you unless it’s petting them, but they’re so cute you can’t ignore them.
A cat, un gato, whatever you call it, is a cute, fluffy little bastard that one moment you're petting and snuggling with, the next you're being scratched out of your mind by. A species with absolutely no logic, unless you find one that won't scratch.
Personally, I like the cats that have fur but don't look like big fluff balls, like calico cats.
P1: Hey man, my dog died last week...
P2: Oh my god! I'm so sorry. Are you ok?
P1: It's alright, I got a cat!
