On the face of it, bringing a fluffy bundle of joy into your home seems like the best idea that you could ever have. Why would you not want a cute cat sitting on your lap while you are zoning out in front of the TV? But alas, the reality is not so sweet and most certainly not so simple, which is why we made this list of fun feline facts of pawspective feline pawrents who need to know what to expert when expecting a cat child. And we can tell you right off the bat, that you should expect the unexpected, like as far out of left field as you can possibly imagine and then a little further.
From the marvelous Maine Coon who is known for its large size but less known for its water sport prowess, so expect to be adorned with fish and frogs if you live near a body of water, to the fast feline known as the Egyptian Mau who is the speediest of cats and will evade even the spriest and athletic of pawrents after a clawminal act.
Never have truer words been uttered with relation to feline pawrenthood. No matter what your own cat child will always be the cutest creature in the world and no other cat will compare. Which makes it imperative that you avoid arguments with other cat pawrents about whose feline fur baby is cuter.
Black cattos are literally some of the best cats you can have in your home. They are incredibly sweet, caring and have a distinct pawsonality that strays from the usual feline traits. We once knew a black cat that liked jumping on the roof and crying for attention, the only way to get him to come down was to hold a laundry basket in the air that he would jump into and be carried down to earth like the prince he is.
