Never have I ever had a pet.
Since a few years, I have drawn quite fond of cats and really adore all the goofiness they do. I like watching and interacting with a few cats I got in my locality.
However, I feel I will never be able to pet a cat. The reason is very straightforward, I am a vegetarian and cats are omnivorous. So they need to have meat in order to sustain, something I may never be able to make do. So yeah I will have to just make do with playing with the cats in my locality for small amount of time and then get back home and miss them.
