How Many Cat Lovers?

Post Reply New Topic

And How Many Cat Haters or ones that aren't particularly crazy about them?

I just notice that there's a lot of cat lovers on this site and some other aspie related sites. At first I thought I was one of those rare cat lovers cos in my life, most people in general aren't crazy about them. In fact I hear people gripe all the time about them.

Don't get me wrong, I also love dogs but I've had a hard time taking care of them. The ones that I've had in the past seem to have suffered from strange ailments. I had one not too long ago pass away....

BTW, I'm allergic to cats but that's never been issue for me not to like them so count your self in if you don't own one. I guess they just grew on me as I don't have allergies to them like I use to.

EDIT

Can't change my poll so just put your own input!

I've always loved cats! So guess you could call me a destined cat lady from birth.

Many of the people at my schools I have come across, they really like dogs, and I never really understood why they liked dogs. I mean, I don't mind dogs, but cats...they're my people. They're my family. I feel as if I am apart of their Felidae.

So whenever people say, "I hate cats" or insult them in any way, I get offended.

Guilty.


I have only one 16 year old, but she has enough attitude to make up for a few more.

Doh! I can't edit my Poll...

I didn't think the title would come off as cat lovers..

I think I accidentally chose "cat hater".

Great two cat lovers for the start. ^^

CAT LOVER CAT LOVER CAT LOVER

Hey me too, allergic to them (well, as a kid I was alllergic to EVERYTHING), and used to have some cats, because "my love is greater than my allergies"

You should get a short hair siamese, they're less prone to causing allergies or there's always the option of allergy pills. That is if you want them bad enough. I know I did....

siamese? They're so ulgy!
doh nevermind, I was thinking of some ugly hairless cats, egyptian I think.

I've heard siamese cats are kind of high maintenance, or hard to take care of, don't know why is that.

I'd like a cat a lot
but I think they were in part guilty of bringing my defenses down, I got sick of almost everything when I had them

I love kitties! They really are the best pets: independent, yet affectionate when they want to be.

Yes, as a kid I was allergic to everything And also suffered from a kind of asthma, so I spent lots of time at home, and sick...
Anyway, as I grew up I started to get better, BUT, one cat entered my life, Rita . She was a very pretty cat, I even let her sleep in
my bed, and we got along great, she was not mine but she was with me all the time. Sometimes she made me sneeze, and I started to
be allergic to cheese and some soy sauces. Later I had another cat, "gris" (gray), this one had shorter hair. I don't know if it was the
cat or if the cheese was of bad quality, but it started suddenly and that's the only thing I think that could be related.
Now I don't like to eat cheese when out, in case anything happens...

Well, I could try again


EDIT: you're right, I was talking about Sphynx cats
siamese they is cute!!

^Couldn't hurt but if it really messes with your health it's probably not worth the risk.

Asthma..I wonder if that's where they came up with the myth that cats can steal a child's oxygen...

thems good eating!
