I Am a Cat?

Many possible things will happen!!

I may end up pampered and lavishly loved  as a member in  empty if not childless afluent families, as companion to some single ladies and widows, or as a buddy to some single dudes. I may sleep with them on their sleep-number beds. get the regular pet grooming, and enjoy staying in fancy pet hotels from time to time when my owners go out of town. I will be fed with a variety of chef-inspired gourmet meals, and will be seen frequently by a high-end overpricing vets.

It could be I end up homeless, living in the streets along with other humans under the bridges. Life will be tough then. I have to sharpen my instinctive skills to gather my own food. Watch out  low-IQ (I mean, low flying) birds and the stupid dumb mice for I am out there to get you. I will frequent the parks and picnic areas for some left over foods. Or I will stay  around housing units for senior citizens hoping that some generous near-the-end-of their-life ladies will share their ration with me.

If given the chance, I will prefer to live in the US, just like most humans wish,  where cats like me are afforded some degree of protection from maltreatment and animal abuse. In many households, pet cats share budget for their daily maintenance and necessities. It's in the US that some lucky cats are worth more than a human life. And that some stupid humans are fined and incriminated for cruelty against animals.

Worst case scenario, as a street cat in the Third World countries,  I will end up lying on my back in the laboratory, dead and skinned, dissected in an Anatomy class. This is a tragic ending for a good cause!
