Besides that they are cute furry little bundles of joy and can make you smile even at the worse times?

It their Independence that I first learned to love about them. Their not like dogs. Don't get me wrong I LOVE dogs too, but you don't train a cat like you do a dog, they train you!! That look on their face when you call them, "Yeah yeah, I hear you, I'll come in my own good time!!" Their just like little lions, proud, strong, independent balls of fur and if you earn their love, is a wonderful gift.
