Who would believe such pleasure from a wee ball o’ fur?'- An Irish saying about cats, perhaps best describes what pleasure-giving creatures cats can be.
A cat is definitely a more independent animal and the perfect pet for more independent people. Cats pretty much keep quiet and are the perfect companion for most people. Who really wants to be tied down with an animal that takes so much time and attention?
They are also great because they usually love to be around people, so if you are looking for a pet that will be quiet but will be near you, then the cat is the perfect choice for you.
