They make life interesting

And sometimes, when you are really sick or down, they are angels, staying nearby and watching over you. But as soon as you decide they are a joy, they shred your new bra because their litter isn't cleaned or their water isn't fresh. They are the proverbial, double edged sword

Or they decide it's time to play and pounce on your full bladder in the middle of the night.

Cat

 

[BlackShanglan]

One of mine is a nursemaid. She always knows when I am ill, sometimes a little before I do. She's normally very independent and stand-offish, but when I am ill she lays on me kneading me anxiously and watching closely to see if her therapy is taking effect. It's very comforting. She's quite accurate as well; if that cat is clingy when I am going to bed, it's a good bet that I'll be calling in the next morning.

The other shows no preternatural awareness of sickness, but is a fairly effective pager. She doesn't meow; she beeps. Usually for breakfast.
