Because cats are picky

Cats are very picky about food and drinking water, especially cats of good breeds. They like to eat high-priced cat food from big brands, which makes the cost of raising a cat relatively high for owners. This will bring a lot of life pressure to people without a certain financial foundation. This is one of the reasons why many people say that raising cats will make three generations poor. ​​​​​​

Because cats are more expensive

For pet cats of good breed and good appearance, such as Ragdoll cats, the price ranges from 10,000 to tens of thousands of yuan. These good breeds of pet cats are not only picky and only like to eat cat food of big brands, good palatability, and high prices, but owners also need to satisfy their daily enjoyment and buy them various high-end cat litter boxes. , automatic feeding machines, drinking fountains, etc.

Because it’s expensive to have a cat and see a doctor

In addition to necessities such as cat food, cat litter boxes, and cat toys, owners must also take their cats for sterilization, annual physical examinations, vaccinations, and deworming. Moreover, once a cat has a minor illness or pain, it needs to go to the hospital for examination and treatment. The cost of medical treatment for cats is more expensive than the cost of medical treatment for humans. Therefore, if these expenses are included, raising a cat is equivalent to raising a child.

Because of superstition

There used to be a saying that cats would come when there were many mice in a poor house, so there is a saying that cats come to poor people and dogs come to rich people. According to Feng Shui, black cats have bad luck and can easily attract evil spirits to their owners' homes. There is also a superstitious saying in the north that cats come to bring sackcloth, which means that it is a bad omen for a cat to come to the house, and it is said to be ominous. But these are just superstitious claims without scientific basis and cannot be trusted.
