Why do people like cats?
Cats are very popular pets. Many people have cats. In fact, some will argue that cats are a better pet than a dog. Cats often bond with their favorite human and provide companionship and love. When a cat purrs, it releases endorphins in the cat, and that can also help calm a human and help them release endorphins, too. Cats are independent and sometimes aloof, which may be a deterrent to humans who haven't been around cats much, but they generally warm up and will be a great friend.
