10x Cats.

If you ever come across this rare breed of cat, adopt them. If you have a 10x cat as part of your household, you increase the odds of success significantly.

How do you spot a 10x Cat?
1. 10x cats hate meetings. They only attend when you carry them, or when you open a laptop or presentation folder and they detect a flat surface upon which they must lay.
2. Timing in the house is very irregular. They tend to lurk when very few people are around. If there are many people in your house, your 10x cats are not visible. Most of them are all-day sleepers, and wake up early in the morning. For you.
3. 10x cats are usually black in color. But they may also be brown, grey, white, or many other colors. Their claws are almost always short. (scratchposters)
4. 10x cats know every box that has come into your house. If a box is open, your 10x cat has already found it within seconds.
5. Most 10x cats are full-stretch cats. They don’t care where the stretch starts. You will rarely have seem them do any work at all.
6. 10x cats can convert hate into purr in their minds, and trick you into accepting their purr many times over. Given a lap and a grumpy owner, a 10x cat can remain on the lap for 4-6 hours in a sitting.
7. 10x cats rarely look at you.
8. 10x cats are terrified of all new things, but will also destroy them if they determine the new thing must be destroyed. This is often a favor to you, and happens before you have finished putting other things away.
9. 10x cats are terrible mentors. Unless you are seeking the true meaning of life. They are often thinking “...”
10. 10x cats never hack things in your presence. They occasionally disgorge high-quality structures made entirely of hair and spit, but only where you will find them with your bare foot.
11. 10x cats rarely hunt. Unless that’s a moth. Is that a moth? You wouldn’t have seen it if not for your 10x cat. Hold on to your 10x cat. Celebrate it. All cats are 10x cats.
10x cat Apollo approves.
This is Cassiopeia. She is also a 10x cat.
This is NOT a 10x cat, but they get an honorable mention.
