It's pretty safe to assume that ANY cat is going to suck as an assist animal.

3. My cat is a big help. If you need half of a chipmunk.
or mouse or bird.

Other than that, maybe not.

Oh, yeah, sometimes a big help drawing blood samples. Gotta clip those claws.

:hi:

6. cats
There are days cats will be so playful and want to have lots of contact. Then there are days where the same cat will look at you like you are just a dumbass human not deserving of feline friendship. thats why I love cats. they sometimes feel that they are fully justified in looking down on humans, and I think often they are right.

BTW, that video on cats for the blind is awesome.

7. Kitties are here to spread joy
and a good amount of fur. :D

That is enough. Other jobs are for lowlier animals, such as canines.
