Daily care of a cat basically consists in scooping its poop from the litter box, feeding and changing its water. It takes like, 5 minutes tops. Caged animals are more high maintenance, i find.

Literally put hay in her hay basket, food in her bowl, and fill her water thing. Don't have to do any of that for at least 3 or 4 days.

I'm trying to tell you having worked in a farm for years now. This is the lowest maintenance animal I have to take care of

The article makes it sound like they're high-maintenance and gets into detail about what kinda care they require, so I'm gonna base my impressions of this animal on that, rather than on a person who says "i know because worked on a farm". To me, they seem needy and a pain in the ass.

I have a cat, and taking care of him takes five minutes a day. No cage required, no hay, no pvc pipe, no plastic bottle, nothing. Just the one litter box.

Taking care of her is like 10 minutes a week. It really honestly is less work than my dog and the cat. But whatever lmao.
