I will elaborate more in the replies, just be nice.
Tldr… I hate how one of the most common advice you receive as a loner without social life or a partner is to get a dog. I’m taking care of a dog for a while now as a favour, since I’m unemployed and have “nothing to do” (my brother went to his gf beach holiday house for the summer with her, his daughter, my younger siblings and my mom, couldn’t take the dog, it’s old) and I’m miserable, I HATE this. I don’t wanna have to deal with any animal after this.
You train them thats where they go, mine was plug and play (the box AND the cats)
Cats can very much be trained, it just requires repetition and consistency. They’ll come around if you show them and reward them and hold them to a reasonable standard consistently__
