I am a serious cat lover. Have been all my life.
I've had 7 cats since the age of 4: Whiskers, Pussums, Jordan, Ajax, Bud, Mickey & Fergus. I have found some, bought some and had some thrust upon me but they are all loveable. Each one has it's own personality - Whiskers was bitey; Pussums was huge (11kg) and liked to mark his territory (me!) often; Jordan had an S&M fetish; Ajax was stupid; Bud was too adventurous for his own good, in the game Cat vs Car, he lost, it's the type of game you can only lose once; Mickey is the slutty neurotic and Fergus (aka Fatguts, Fergustus Gloop, Fatty Fat Fat Fatty) is a bully!
I like dogs, they are fine. Mine is pretty cool. But give me a kitty and I melt. Our vet has 2 resident cats and 1 dog. I pat the dog, but I cuddle the kitties. Here are all the reasons why...
1. They are cuddly
2. They can be entertained by any household material - string, paper, foil, rubbish, fingers, toes, light, nothing...
3. They have a sense of the regal about them, like nobody is better than them. (I wish I felt like that sometimes)
4. Purring............ *sigh*
5. They are self cleaning
6. You do not have to walk around the yard dodging land mines
7. They sit on your lap (or chest) and keep you warm.
8. They can sense when something is NQR with you and they come and make it better.
9. The more you ignore them, the more they love you
10. In my house, they keep the dog on his toes!
Most people I know either love cats or hate cats, there doesn't seem to be any middle ground like there is with dogs. What do you think??
