Why do programmers like cats so much?
- praptak 5y agoThe null hypothesis here is that everybody likes cats.
- ludamad 5y agoIndeed. Cats and dogs are part of endless marketing materials for a reason. They're as generic appeal as it goes (something something everyone loves babies)

They need food and cuddles, but they don't need to be let out to potty ten times a day or require excess walks. -- They have a remarkably complicated inner life. This appeals to creative types, who also often have a lot going on mentally. -- They are conducive to the lifestyle, apart from wanting to stand on my keyboard. They will sit in the cat tree or on my lap for a long time, just wanting to be near. They will remind you when it's time to stand up and stretch.
