My cat freak out when I fainted once as a teenager. She basically attached herself to for a whole hour.
She could get pretty clingy as well when I was preparing for or just got home from a long trip.
She might have been selfish, but she did seem to care about me.

Huh.
So then how come my cats always climb up on my bed and curl up beside me when I'm sick? Seems that they care about me.
They also do that when my mom's depression gets really bad. They just lay down next to her.
Or how about when I first left for college? My parents told me that my cats spent most of their time in my room meowing. Almost as if they were wondering where I had gone. Almost as if they had missed me.

There was this one time everyone home left the city, so the house was left alone with our cat. I managed to get a friend to come over and check on her 2 times per day.
It was the weekend, so my cat was alone for most of 3 days.
Once I came back from the airport, she bolted out of my room and started SCOLDING ME for leaving her alone. I can swear under oath that the tone of her meowing was that of someone who is really mad at you for leaving without warning but is still glad you came back and now you're here.
She's 13 years old and slept on my bed that night.

>selfish
Everything is inherently selfish, saying they manipulate you is personification, every animal strives to obtain food
>unfeeling
No other animal is as loving as not cats, and a lack of attachment doesn't stop people from owning fish/reptiles/invertebrates
>environmentally harmful
Only if you let them outside
>parasites
Uncommon in strictly indoor cats, every animal has the potential to carry pathogens
Shit argument, only major downside is easily solved by not being a retard and letting your cat freely roam outdoors.

>being such a beta you need an animal who will love you no matter what
>not earning the love of a cat and actually loving it back
Nah I have a small not cat and a cat and I love them both. I like the not cat more, but partly because i've had him much longer.
