There's this thing with girls where they want to be a cat, a ninja, a mermaid or a unicorn. Did I miss anything? Or maybe they want to be some cool Mexican guy who has a moustache and eat tacos all day called Pedro. But they have this thing in which they want to be something but them. Guys don't have this. I mean, they do, but they want to be a person. They don't want to be an animal or a mythical character. Guys want to be footballers, rockstars or rappers. They want to be human. They rather be imperfect humans than be something else.
I get it though, why girls want to be everything but human. For instance, I wish I was a cat. You may assume that it is because I adore cats. I do adore them, but that's hardly the reason.
Have you ever seen a cat that's not beautiful?
Cats come in different colours, shape, breed, fur and whatever they are, they're beautiful. They are these furry wonders (or furless, in the case of the Sphinx). Being a girl is hard. Not everyone is physically attractive. Only those long- legged girl with nice hair and clear face are but cats? They are ALL attractive in every aspect. Fat cats are cute. Long and lean cats are just gorgeous. Short haired, long haired, who cares? White fur, brown fur. Almond eyes, round eyes, no eyes. Ever heard anyone say, "Gosh, I just hate those kind of cats?"? The only hatred you ever hear is how creepy cats look at people or how their eyes shine in the night which could both be beautiful or scary.
Girls, on the other hand, get judged and they judge. Oh my God, you're so tan! Did you put on weight? Your haircut, um, looks weird. What's wrong with your skin? Why are you so thin? Your hair is so frizzy! You have short legs. Your eyebrows are waaay to near to each other. Is that a unibrow?! Your arms are hairy. Everyone has their flaws but cats? Even if they have three eyes but one eye is dead, they're still beautiful as ever. Imagine if a girl has that.
Cats are also confident. Look at the way they strut. Head up, chest forward, legs straight, tail swaying wildly. Look at how they look at you. Look at how they strut in front of a dog on a leash. Cocky but confident, nevertheless. They crouch low on the ground eyeing the squirrel and then pounce on it, no hesitation. They almost never do get it but no one tells them to try harder. No one criticizes they way they pounce or their timing. No one tries to send them obedience class after they hauled in mice and cockroaches and birds into the house. Their catch of the day semi- alive, of course.
They simply don't get judged. They can groom themselves all day long and no one calls them vain. No one calls them overdressed, over made- up. No one looks at a cat and criticizes the cat. And cats get what they want, what everyone else want to. To laze in the sun. To sleep all day. To eat with no worry. To run free. To look their worst and embrace it. To fight for what they want. To demand for what they want. To chase what they want without being ridiculed.
Cats are carefree and beautiful. Isn't that just what each and every girl want to be?
Cats have no sin. They are pure no matter how much they bite and scratch you. No matter how much they agitate and worry you.
Cats were worshipped as deities in Ancient Egypt. Abu Hurairah was named Father of Cats (Abu Hurairah literally means Father of Cats, actually) because he loved cats and cared for stray cats. Chinese and Japanese folks believe that cats bring good luck. That's why you see cute statues of cats in their shops all the time. And if you s much as hurt a cat intentionally, it is a sin. Imagine if one starve and torture one.
Nuff said, I want to be one of our feline friend as they are no other creature more noble and beautiful than the cat.
