Cats are better than kids because...
Published Jan 01, 1900
Litterboxes are easier to clean than leaky diapers. When they're babies, you're - not expected to understand their lingo. Velvet mice are cheaper than Gameboys (TM) or Playstations(TM). They don't need haircuts, and their natural crazy colors look just fine. They'll keep cuddling with you beyond babyhood. They always look cute, even when they're getting into mischief. They'll eat bugs. Well, so will kids, but... Some of them will talk to you or even sing you softly to sleep. They don't turn into obnoxious teenagers. Catnip is legal under 21. Getting them surgically fixed is a viable option.
