I should have just given my roommate some cat jewelry!
One day I came home from school and found my roommate relaxed on
the couch with a tiny little creature bundled in her arms.
Hoping it was just a stuffed animal, I soon realized it was a
live kitten. Not an avid fan of cats, I reminded her of our
landlord's policy of no pets in the condo. She insisted
that she would keep her kitten in her room, or out on the patio
while she was out. I reluctantly gave in and tolerated the
kitten's presence, but made it known that I couldn't stand to
have a cat living in the condo.
Looking back on this unfavorable living situation, I laugh now
to realize that years have passed, and only was I reminded of
that cat when I came across some cat jewelry at a store
showcase. When I viewed the various designs of cat jewelry in
necklaces, pendants, and bracelets, I thought of my cat lover
roommate. Could we have made a compromise, giving the cat a new
home, and getting my roommate some cat
jewelry? If I could have gone back to that situation, I
would have convinced my roommate that cat jewelry is a much
better alternative than taking care of a real one. Here is why.
Cat jewelry doesn't give you allergies: Some people are
just allergic to cats, or they say they are because it's a
relevant excuse to get rid of them. Some may be more partial to
other animals like dogs. Especially if you're in a roommate
situation, having cats in the home is not accommodating if
others are allergic. Be considerate of your roommates and resort
to your love for cats by wearing jewelry.
Cat
jewelry doesn't require maintenance: Compared to most
animals, cats are pretty low maintenance when it comes to taking
care of them. However, when you are very busy, an extra duty to
tend to your cat can be tiresome. With cat
jewelry, the only maintenance appreciated, but not required,
is to have a jewelry box to store all of your jewels. For
college students, your living situation is mobile, which doesn't
give your cat a stable home.
Cat jewelry is a pretty accessory: Celebrating your love
for cats can be displayed in various designs of necklaces,
bracelets, pendants, earrings and rings. Wearing your cat
jewelry is an expression of your love for the animal. In
public places where you are prohibited from having animals
around, you won't be condoned for sporting around your cat
accessories. For this reason, freely express your love for cats
and make a fashion statement with your cat jewelry.
Comparing cats to cat jewelry might be like comparing apples to
oranges- you can't really compare the pros and cons, they are
just different. But when it comes to the consideration of other
people, like roommates, opt for cat jewelry to avoid the
disagreements and confrontation.
