I like that he waited for the cats to decide and he didn't try to force them. The man knows cats.

Many people give cats a bad rap because of their perceived unfriendliness, especially when compared to dogs. But research shows that they make better pets than one may think. For one, cats prefer human interaction over food, as revealed by this 2017 study

Another study revealed that having a cat could benefit its owner’s health. Researchers observed a lowered risk of heart disease among people with cats.

As veterinary pathologist Lawrence McGill explained to Medical News Today, one possible reason is that cats don’t require too much hands-on attention compared to dogs. It then leads to lower stress levels for the owner, which decreases the risk of cardiovascular issues.

Would he prefer Big Nigel? How about King Nigel (kitty) and Not-King Nigel?

Human Nigel needs to chill. Cat Nigel was the OG - he gets dibs on Nigel.

If human Nigel manages to hang around I look forward to the future when the og Nigel, having lived a long and happy life, is sadly no longer with us but despite that human Nigel is still always known as human Nigel.

I had a cat named Robert when I started dating human Robert. Human Robert was not pleased that I would not change Kitty Robert's name.. A few years later kitty Robert passed and human Robert proposed. I often wondered about the timing of that.

If he knew how much she probably/hopefully loves that cat he should feel very special. Just don't make it a negative for the boyfriend.

I know two people with the same name and one is a lovely person while the other is completely awful. So I call them The Good [name] and The Evil [name] so people know who I'm talking about!

A study from the Fauna Communications Research Institute in North Carolina found that a cat’s purring can be therapeutic for humans. 

Researchers analyzed the purring frequencies of 45 different species of cats, which is between 20 to 50 hertz. The findings reveal that such frequencies are close to the range of ultrasound therapy.

A study conducted by Indiana University professor Jessica Gall Myrick found that simply looking at cat videos can improve one’s mood

Some participants of her research reported feeling more “energetic” and “positive” after seeing a cat video online. Others had fewer negative emotions like anxiety, sadness, and annoyance.

The Cat’s Expression!

The Cat’s Expression!

Digi Scott Report

Many people prefer having cats as pets because of how much cheaper they are to own and maintain. 

According to the Southern Arizona Veterinary Specialty & Emergency Center, having a cat neutered or spayed can cost an average of $145. However, the cost for the same procedure for a dog can range between $190 to $220.

As pointed out by small-animal expert Christina Donelly, cats are also innately cleaner. Part of their instincts is to dig a small ditch and bury their droppings to hide their territory from potential predators.

Most pet owners will likely agree that having litter boxes is much more convenient than having to scoop up dog poop from the ground.

I've started keeping a squeezie gravy treat under my pillow as a quick shut-the-hell-up solution for my noisy Siamese sticking his paws in my mouth and screaming in my face for a 3am snack. Works like a charm 😂

I remember seeing a pic somewhere of a cat at the vet with his owner, who was pointing out where he registered on the chonky chart. It was not at the "normal weight" end. :P
