I'm guessing a lot of people here definitely will! I doubt I will (pets are too much responsibility for me) but I'm sure my mom will, especially since she had seven cats at the same time once! So what do you think? Do you think you're going to be one of those crazy cat ladies when you're old?

No. I'm thinking this will either be my last set of pets or I'll have to get elderly pets next time. I'll be too old to get young pets when these go. I've seen what happens to them when old people die and leave them behind. I wouldn't do that to them. Besides, I'm too concious of only have the number of pets I can actually care for adequately.

I plan on being a crazy old dog lady. Or maybe spider lady. Or weird plant lady. The possibilities are endless.

I don't know if I'll have "alot" of cats...this house was formerly owned by one of those "crazy old cat ladies" (somewhere around 20 of them I've heard from the neighbors)...I still have vivid memories of the odor before we tore up all the carpet and scrubbed it from top to bottom. We still had a faint odor in places until it was remodeled.

I think I'll definitely become a "crazy old lady" though... :wink:

When I was 4 I told my mother I would never get married or have childs, because I would live with her forever, and I would have many cats

Time passed, and I don't feel I need to get married, sometimes I think I depend a lot of my mother (I'm 20 years old!). But my dad hates cats, so if I have to live with my parents, I wouldn't have cats

Yes most likely I will, and that's okay with me because I'd rather spend my time with cats than with people any day!

I'll be a crazy old cat lady ... if I change my sex :oops:

I think I'll be happy with one cat, only one

I'm like you. I'm 20 and still feel close to my parents, although we do have arguments. I find it hard living away at college and always look forward to coming home. I'd love to have animals when I'm older. We're not allowed animals at college. :cry:
