Cat people are considered a “rare breed” amongst the population. In fact, only 11.5% of people polled actually considered themselves to be cat people. Crazy right? But before you panic, don’t let this small number worry you because we have a video that highlights ALL of the wonderful qualities that cat people possess. Sure, dog people have some wonderful qualities too, we aren’t knockin’ them, but it’s high time someone highlights us cat lovers because dogs always get the spotlight!

Thankfully, BuzzFeed has done just that! Us cat-folks may be more quiet and reserved, but we’re certainly worthy of a mention!
