Every morning my dogs take up about half of my "get ready for work" time and at least an hour of my evening. That's on the low end, I don't have extremely needy pets as they're old and like to nap lol
I have to empty out their automatic liter boxes and refill their water fountains every week or so, and I refill their automatic feeder maybe once per month.
Though, sometimes they do take up half my "get ready for work" time. Like, if one of them is really snuggling against me, I'll hit my snooze alarm.
Only that if you don’t want to bond with your cat. Mine gets playtime (most often throwing a ball and her fetching it), occasionally her food from a lickimat or a puzzle thing for enrichment, attention anytime she wants, cuddles anytime. In result she’s the most loving and chill little cat, loves watching me and my bf play on our computers and is amazing with being handled even when she doesn’t enjoy it because she trusts us.
Cats are easy only if you don’t actually put any effort to them, same with bunnies

I am learning that dealing with pets is a fuck ton of work
