I love all cats, and they are free to walk inside anytime they want. Just no fighting in the house.

Is anyone else bothered by people saying their cat is lost? -No; it left a toxic relationship! "They stole my cat" -Nah, it moved out!

People always say they look cute and yea sure,

But did y'all forget the fact that they can literally get rid of all your mice problems?

I got a cat because for companionship and one month later, all those filthy mice are gone.

Being soft and warm to pet, and the beautiful meows, are just the cherry on top of their lovely companionship.

They rarely need to in the city, also those that weren't taught by other cats most of the time won't kill the mouse just torture it or scare.

Well, whatever my cat did, the mice are gone so... 🤷‍♂️

I did see a few dead mice around the first 2 months, now no sight of mice.

You are lucky, in my previous flat there were hoarders-alcoholics that lived on the next floor, one day they brought mice with whatever shit they decided to take. At first they were contained on their floor, but after a while they were everywhere. Cat played with them at first >_< and then got bored. After 10 or so that traps killed (in a month) I moved out.

They are funny, don't really need a lot of space and training, and look pretty. Ofc I will go and by whatever.
