The reality of having a face in your face when you wake up would be gone. I mean, can you program it to trip you? Can you program it to sit on the arm of the chair next to you and start licking its ass? Can you program it to meow at the most inappropriate times? Can you program it to jump on your full bladder ten minutes before the alarm goes off? I mean, come on, a cat who is always well behaved? Where is the fun in that?
