Good day, fellow HIVE users from all the corners of the world (especially esteemed Hive Pets community users) as well as dear readers from both HIVE and outside of it! For today's fifth post on my HIVE blog as well as my first daily contribution here on the Hive Pets community, I dearly wanted to write a bit about the fact that cats are very beautiful, empathetic, and loving animals and pets who should be respected and treated right!

As a cat owner for many years, I know very well what it means to have a cat as a pet. It is a tremendous responsibility. It means providing shelter, food, water, care, attention, and love to one of the most beautiful, empathetic, and loving animals on this Earth. And, boy, do they return this protection tenfold! 🙂
Cats are very special and unique animals and, as pets, they are very loving and protective. Contrary to what some people think, pet cats don't like to be alone! Once they had established a strong bond with their owner(s) they want to spend as much time as possible with them! And they are very kind at doing so, trust me, as I am writing from personal experience.
I know for certain from personal experience that some cats behave very much like pet dogs behave, namely they are very protective and nice to their owners. These animals can teach us a lot of lessons about loyalty, commitment, protection, courage, discipline, love, care, attention/focus, fun, and play. Yes, they are very playful and agile as well, it goes without saying.
Cats can also get along well with other animals, even with dogs. Once again, contrary to what some people might think, if grown together since infancy or young age, cats and dogs can be very good friends and can respect each other well.
Back to the main point of this post of mine, I'd like to highlight the importance of treating cats well even if they are not your pets. For example, even if you meet a cat on your way outside, be kind to them, try to pet them if they allow and like it, and give them a little bit of food, water, and love. They need it and they can return these favours with their cuteness and adorability.
Once again, I am writing from personal experience as during the past few years in my hometown I gave some food, water, and care to some cats outside my place in my hometown (as well as some food to some dogs) and they can behave better than some humans.
That's why, dear friends, I strongly believe that showing care and affection as well as respect to cats is very important. Once you become a cat owner, there is no turning back. You love and care for cats for life and this is a very beautiful blessing!
Thank you very much for reading until the end! I am very grateful to you for your time, attention, readership, consideration, appreciation, support, and positive feedback here on HIVE! It means so much to me! All the best, much respect, take care, stay safe, and have a beautiful autumn along with your dear ones!
Oh, it's good to know other people like you who care for cats as much as I do. I also love cats, for me they're the most loving and adorable creations to ever exist. 🥰 I have two cats, Nono and Donalyn. The latter unfortunately just crossed the rainbow bridge recently.
But anyway, thank you for having such a good soul to care for cats. Your cats are lucky to have you! ❤
Thank you very much for your comment! I am very grateful to you for stopping by and posting this beautiful reply to my post! I have a 15-year-old cat which I still care a lot for and like and care for the stray cats in my neighbourhood and hometown as much as possible. I am very sorry for your loss... 😔 Many blessings and all the best to you and your cats! 🙂
P.S. Plenty of success here on HIVE and in general!
@vikthor !
In the world I live in, wild cats are recognized as animals that destroy the ecosystem by eating many birds and squirrels.
Cats have excellent hunting instincts!
Well, if they are domesticated cats and live in your flat or home and you only feed them cat food they are no threat to the environment or birds. And, after all, it's in the law of nature that they are hunting animals. Now, I like both cats and birds. That's what I want to say in the end. All the best and thanks for stopping by.
Thanks for your comment! All the best and much respect!
