When I am home I can look forward to the following:

    Constant demands for attention when they feel like it.
    In addition to the cat bed they each have, I also serve as their bed when it starts getting cold due to my comforters.
    Clean laundry is also a perfectly acceptable substitute for cat beds.
    And so is the linen closet.
    And so is my clothes pile while I'm getting ready in the morning.
    You have to budget for lint rollers.
    But it is nice to have them crawl up on you at night and settle down!
    Fuck you for complaining, I still don't have a cat.

    I'm very judgmental. I think it's weird. Maybe weird is the wrong word. Maybe "not sexy" would be more appropriate. I know. I'm awful.

    I'll overlook a kitten for a 10 in dick. For a 12 inch one, I'll overlook a kitten, bipolar disorder AND catching you watching Titanic.

    No worries, I still haven't seen your pics so really don't know what I would have to deal with. I've only slept with one woman from this board & I do believe she said gorgeous, quoted.

    I don't like dogs either. Not really a pet person, in general. A single guy with a pet seems like a single guy with a kid. Except I would understand why the guy kept the kid around. Don't understand why he'd keep a pet around. A cat not only seems girly, it seems like extra baggage... He can't just take off for the weekend or spend the night somewhere spontaneously. He's gotta go home to water and feed his kitty. Clearly, I'm wildly judgement, sexist and mean. Also perpetually single...

    Yeah a dog you gotta be there, or else they will poop all over the house and maybe tear shit up too. Cats are fine with a few days away but they usually aren't really happy about it.

    I still think cats are way more like people than dogs. I love dogs, don't get me wrong, but no human being kisses ass so much as your average dog. Nowhere near.

    I tend to steer away from people who don't like pets, though it's not a deal breaker. But any woman who ever said 'Wow it's a little weird you like cats.' would be history so fucking fast...

    This is funny, my current SO has and had 2 cats when I met him (we were friends for a while prior to being in a relationship) and I used to joke with my girlfriends about it, and them with me about how owning cats was a bit effeminate and how the fact that he didn't hit on anything that wasn't a dude was a bit of a red flag....it took me almost a year to get used the the cats (I am a dog-lover), but I feel like an ass for prejudging him based on the pets he owned (which are actually really sweet). He is an ex-marine, so nothing effeminate about him and I guess your pets sorta mimic your personality. I still am a die-hard dog-fan, big sloppy tongue and all! But am less likely to shy away from feline friends.....also I am sure some of my feline-alienation has to do with the fact that my step mom's seemed to always be cat-lovers, bad association LOL.

    Well here is the bottom line. You have to get the cat early and raise it the same way you would a dog. Teach it to come when you call, etc. Use the treats and the verbal rewards and the petting to reinforce it. It takes a little more work but it is worth it. Plus none of that whining and yowling to wake you up, no sir.



    Teach them to respect you and desire to be loyal. I grew up a dog person so it came natural with the first kitten I had, whom I rescued from a gigantic tree when drunk off my ass. I have had two cats that fetched. It's great fun.

    Dogs are much dumber than cats. Cats are for smart people who aren't insecure, and have high self-esteem. All hail cats.

    I thought of you all during the height of FantasyFest; while some drunken friends of mine were blathering on and harassing people I spotted a cat about a hundred feet down the road and went to see if it was friendly. Much to my delight, it turned out to be one of those slutty cats that roll all around when you pet them and start doing backflips etc. when you stop.

    Cats are the type of pet which do allow you to take off for the weekend and not have to worry about them. Give them extra food and water, make sure the box is clean, and you are good to go.

    It's definitely a "plus" in my book! Cat lover myself, agree with all the other ladies here.

    I can understand not wanting to date a cat guy if you are allergic, though.
