Man shows what it’s truly like to live with cats in hilarious video
The cats own the house... humans just get to live in it with them.

Cat and dog people have always disagreed on which is the better pet. Dog people love their energetic, loving sidekicks, while cat people prefer having a quiet companion in their homes.

To each their own!

Chris and Jess are self-proclaimed “servants” to their two cats, and share what life is like behind the scenes with their furry felines. They tried to capture what a day-in-the-life is like, and posted it to their YouTube channel with the simple caption: Cat People Will Understand…

And even though I don’t currently have any cats… I think I’d like to try my hand at understanding.

Let’s see what we’re in for!

It’s five AM, still dark outside, but the cats have decided it’s time to wake up and play. I don’t personally know anyone who enjoys being woken up, but if you have to be pulled out of bed by someone, a furry face with bright green eyes is probably not a bad option.

It’s breakfast time, and the kitties aren’t just treated to delicious wet food, but we also see their fancy water fountain.

This is some five star service!

Then it’s time for Chris to brush his teeth, but naturally, it’s not a convenient time for Marmalade. She’s busy taking a little adventure into the sink doing… well, it’s unclear.

But definitely being a typical cat and making life difficult for his human.

And like any cat owner, Chris doesn’t try to move his kitty! He just picks up his toothbrush and toothpaste set and brushes his teeth in the kitchen instead.

Trying to have a productive day, he checks his calendar and sees that he needs to clean the house and do some laundry. Easy!

He grabs the vacuum but finds his two adorable cats are sleeping.

How could he possibly disturb them?! Sure, they woke him up at the crack of dawn… but interrupt their cat nap? They look so cozy, sleeping in their living room-sized nest of cat toys, so he decides to leave that chore for later.

He finds a spider on the wall in the other room, and calls in Marmalade for backup.

She gets rid of the eight-legged menace with ease! Which is, in my opinion, a reason in itself to have a cat.

Stop the video, you don’t have to convince me anymore. I’m in.

Chris finds the living room empty and takes the opportunity to clean it all up – it looks spotless!

But he knows in his heart that the cats will miss their nest of toys, so he basically undoes all the work he’s just done, and puts everything back.

Also, we obviously need to discuss the larger than life painting of Cole on the wall – incredible. These kitties are really and truly treated like royalty in this house.

Chris tries to spend time working on his blog (which is already totally dedicated to his cats). But ooooh no.

We all know how cats can’t handle you diving your attention and using the computer. It’s a miracle he’s been able to launch and manage a successful blog at all!

Cole sits on his lap and they share a very sweet, loving moment.

And then the moment continues and continues. Chris can’t do any work, but obviously can’t bring himself to disturb his comfortable cat on his lap, either.

Eventually Cole gives up (or realizes he’s won) and leaves. Chris feels like he’s just been granted some freedom.

And what else to do with that freedom than try to tick off another chore from your list? He heads over to fold his laundry. But little Marmalade is sitting on the pile of clothing, looking so cute with his big green eyes – Chris is hypnotized.

Instead of laundry, he gives some love to the spoiled tabby cat, and gets down on the floor next to his for a little cat nap.

How can anyone get anything done with these two around?!

Chris and Jess, the cat-loving duo behind Cole and Marmalade’s YouTube channel are big advocates for adoption. They use their hilarious and educational channel to spread awareness for what life can be like with furry felines.
