I sort of feel the same way about babies, but my wife wanted one and I guess it's sort of better because really, babies will pay you more mind than a cat will. Babies are messy. Yeah but cats are messy too, with all that fur and the litter box. And then that disgusting food you have to feed them that smells like raw fish, and you've got to keep the half-cans in the fridge. You've got a point there.
Baby food is gross but much less gross than cat food.
Cats don't usually eat good things like strained peaches. I thought maybe pistachio, or lime. But it would probably taste more like pistachio. I thought pistachios were red. They are but you don't use real pistachios to make foodstuffs, you use pistachio extract and then dye it green.
