Living with a cat means accepting that the house is theirs, and I’m just renting space. From claiming the sunniest windowsill to sprawling across the bed, cats move with an entitlement that’s both hilarious and endearing.

Sometimes it feels like I’m the guest, adjusting around their routines. But honestly, that’s part of the fun. Their independence makes the moments of affection even sweeter, like when they curl up on my lap after ignoring me all day.

Cats might act like they own the house—but maybe that’s what makes them such entertaining companions.
