You can eat me 4 hours after I pass, but not a single second sooner.

Even humans had to resort to cannibalism at some unfortunate point in time. Cats do what they need to survive too. From my experience with cats, they're great "low-maintenance pets". As in, you don't have to walk them everyday or take them out when nature calls and they're not as needy as dogs. But they're not really that independent or aloof either. The cats I've had would greet me when I'd get back from work and meow insistently for cuddles and food. There's something relaxing about a cat purring contently.

Your comment reeks of pure Stockholm syndrome. I recommend an immediate ivermectin dose to assist with your readily apparent toxoplasmosis issues.

"hey, at least it's not mean murder"

you don't have to walk them everyday or take them out when nature calls

at the cost of accepting dangerous chemicals, viruses, and parasites into your residence, not sure how that weighs out on the old pro/con list

they're not as needy as dogs

exactly, real emotional connections and relationships require maintenance

The cats I've had would greet me when I'd get back from work and meow insistently for cuddles and food

If you had to look back objectively, wouldn't you say it was 80% food and 20% cuddles?

Co-dependence much? Not sure if this is healthy

Why four hours? I'm a picky eater.

A dog, an actual friend, would wait 4 days before eating my corpse. Cats are clearly incapable of empathy, but waiting just a bit before eating shows respect.

They're little psychopaths but I still love them.

I used to love them myself, I'm just bitter because I became allergic to them :D

Oh, that's too bad. Dogs are great as well. I especially like big dogs like huskies and golden retrievers. Little dogs, not so much.
