I do, of course.

Do you know what Josh calls him? Grandma-Man.

I know as a guy I'm not supposed to...but I grew up around them and really don't mind them. They're a lot easier to take care of than a dog...and a lot less annoying.

cats taste nice :)

Nope, I like dogs better... Don't have any myself (small apartment etc.), but my father has four Labrador retrievers. :)

I rather have to. We have 5.

I should enjoy them. I have four of them.

Aww. Myrth likes kittens. How cute. I always knew he was a softy deep down inside.

I'm wild about cats, big cats, little cats, ,mid-sized cats, happy cats, grumpy cats, ambivelent cats, I like 'em...I like 'em a lot! :D

Thank you. Thank you very much! It's good to be loved. :)

I don't like cats. I like CATS.

I love cats, they're so gorgeous and sophisticated, yet loyal at the same time.
I have 2 cats (bless their cotton socks) but would love a pet tiger!

Cats are great, I love cats. Dogs are good, too, but most don't fit into your lap as well (even the small ones, they don't drape like cats do), and don't have that satisfying pur. Love to the animals. Love to the kiwi bir- I mean cats.

:eek:

how...much....

I like all animals, including cats.
Well, wait, I'm not very partial to humans. :mp5:

Not really, but I'm alergic to them, they make my eyes swell up, so if it wasn't for that I might not mind them.

I don't like cats. I like CATS.

+1 for the reference,
-1 for the deployment.

Alph, is that you? Be nice now. Signed, your mother.

I have three cats that have adopetd my wife and me. They allow us to live in and pay the mortgage on their house. They know they were Gods in ancient Egypt and never let us forget it. They even let us pet them when they feel like it.

Cats are wonderful people. :)

I'm allergic to cats :( . I like them in general, but the only I ever had was an evil satan-kitty that scratched me for no reason and pissed everywhere.

Cats rule. My cat can scare off a racoon, beat up a dog, hold its own against children of any size, and defeat any make intruders RUN AWAY!

I like cats Alot.I have 2 cats and also 2 birds... :D
Felines are my favourite Too :D

:eek:

how...much....
a lot....a really lot, lots and lots and lots of lots....

Felines are my favourite non-human species....I like people too, (ok I do have some strange tastes, perhaps I'm just biased on the whole people thing 'cause I am one, and it seems best if one likes what one is).... ;)

Only if their dead.

I love cats...and turtles. I want both, but my dad is supposedly allergic to cats and turtles are illegal to buy in NJ.

Cats are worthless animals. I hope you enjoy feeding them and cleaning up their crap.

My cats are not worthless, and yes I do enjoy feeding them, although there is not any need for me to clean up their 'crap'. :rolleyes:

ummm....wtf...

uurrhhhh?

Love cats.

They do neither of these things, but this is hardly relevent to the point discussed given the very many things that have 'worth' that do not do either of these things for me either...

Cats help make life worth living.

1) Dogs would usually go on your floor, rather than in a litter box.. so... yeah, evil cats.

2) We live in the country, so our cats keep the gopher population down, and as of yet, we haven't had any rodents in the house.

3) Our cats are also extremely useful in keeping the family from killing each other, keeping us from getting depressed, and keeping us entertained. Our cats are endless little balls of amusement. Heck, the latest batch actually softened my dad up. Ever seen a man who loves telling you about how he knocked some idiot at work down with a single punch play gently with a smallish cat?

Our cats make the family -work-. And they're not even all that friendly compared to some.

Only useless in certain households, with certain personalities, I assure you.

A huge cat lover - I've done cat rescue for years. Currently have 5 special needs fur persons - such as Sheba Blind Kitty - she was born without eyes.

I love cats...and turtles. I want both, but my dad is supposedly allergic to cats and turtles are illegal to buy in NJ.

People are usually allergic to cat hair or dander. There is a hairless cat for people who have allergies, but hairless cats are ugly. (at least they are to me)

What, do they make you dinner? Help with your taxes perhaps?

They lay on your lap or close to you, let you pet them, purr, and lower your blood pressure. They will also catch and kill any mice, bugs, etc that you have in your house. They have also been known to wake me up in the morning when I have forgotten to set my alarm clock.

Cats help make life worth living.
and dogs not only help, but completely make life worth living

Yes, I adore cats. Except when they sleep on my face and I wake up thinking someone's smothering me. Or when they find their squeaky mouse-onna-string at 2 in the morning and both chase it under my bed, and I wake up thinking WWIII has started. Or... oh look, there's a cat gnawing on my hair as we speak... hrm.

I still love 'em though. They suit my personality much better than any dog ever could.

I like cats. They're playful and evil and like to pounce. I can relate. :)

"Dogs have masters. Cats have a support staff."

Can I say certain cats

YAY! :D

I miss that comic sooo much! :(

I miss that comic sooo much! :(

Me too. I just bought a C&H book a couple weeks ago.

I love cats, especially big ones. Working at a Veterinary clinic that does wildlife rehabilitation is so much fun. We once had a cougar kitten in, and she was the coolest cat I have ever seen. Not just in the way she looked, but her personality was awesome, and there is the whole intimidation factor if anyone threatens you.

I'd be a little nervous at first around a cat that could actually kill you if it got moody and not just want to. But I'm sure it'd pass. :)

hence the part of her being a kitten, so she was very friendly. Bobcats are different stories though, if you manage to get one of them tame, it won't be friendly to anyone but it's trainer.

Do I like cats?

It depends on how they're cooked.



JK. I actually get a little black pussy on the side every night.





Our two black cats fight over the spot next to me, one of them is always there.

Do they purr like domestic cats?

I have a cat, although all he does is eat and cry, so while I don't mind him, he can get irritating.

I love cats. And cats love me.

I wish, really wish, that I could charm humans the way I charm cats.

Probably need to love humans first.

Argh... cat on my keyboard.

I am owned by a cat. Her name is Cleopatra, Queen of Denial. Aka Cleo or "Monsterpest".

I love my cat. :cool:

I absolutely love cats. I also like rats. If I were to ever get a dog it would have to be a border collie or one of the northern breeds like akita's, malamutes, husky, etc.

Cougars. Are. The. Coolest.

I love em, even though I'm allergic to them. (Dogs I'm OK with ... no allergy problems.)

Though my Howie Cat has kidney failure. :( It is so sad to see a cat that will come running to me if I drum roll my tummy and that was once so full of energy waste away. Now Howie has to get saline shots and eat special food, and he spends much more time just chilling out. This means I do as well. He has been like a shadow to me, so I guess it is my turn now.

I'm going to miss the little guy, but I'm hoping with a lot of care and attention that he'll be comfortable and able to hang in there.

So I trade mice for cats?


So what should one use to get rid of my cat problem?


Addition: and shouldn't they be petting you if they were worth a lick?

I have a cat, although all he does is eat and cry, so while I don't mind him, he can get irritating.

When he cries, pick him up, love him, pet him, and/or get a string and play with him. Or get another cat about his age. Unless they are sick they usually cry when they want attention.

Cougar, the absolute most beautiful cat.

We have a 3 year old dog, who requires a ton of attention. The cat is likely ignored and feels bullied (the dog tries to chase him), but he eats too much and I'm worried he'll become diabetic. He is 8 years old now, although he's slowed down alot since we moved.

We went through that with our beloved Tiggy. :( Love him, pet him, and enjoy having him with you. You sound like a wonderful Kitty parent.

They often do if I don't pet them.

If you are in the U.S. Iams makes some weght control cat food. If you can't find that, check with your vet. They often have special food for cats (and dogs) with weight problems. It isn't uncommon for an 8 year old cat to become a little puggy, especially if he has been neutered.

We live in Canada but we currently have him on weight control cat food. He likes to eat, I think because he's bored/ignored. Yes, he has been neutered as well.

Do they purr like domestic cats?
Absolutely :)

They are marking their territory. They own you. Next time it tries that, smack it. Make sure it knows who's in charge.

love them....but i'm allergic :(

The cat knows she is in charge. She taught me that a long time ago. :)

I have eight of them and i must.

Actually my cat doesnt own me, although that's not necessarily how he sees it. Why would I make sure he 'knows who's in charge', since I know, it really doesnt make any difference what the cat perceives. If he's happy to think he owns me, no harm done.

However, I dont believe that there is not more to my cat's affectionate behaviour than that. My cat frankly adores me. Yes he's bossy, but that's actually part of his charm.

My cat adores me, whether or not he also thinks he owns me does not detract from the affection he feels for me.

Love 'em. Gerry (my current cat) is sleeping soundly in my lap right now.

Anyone here ever pet a Cheetah? I have. It was awesome. :D

The thing is that Cats:
- Scratch
- Bite
- Eat native wildlife (big problem in Australia)
- Kill Birds
- Roam at night annoying everyone
- Hiss


Although..they do taste nice :P

I don't think that start a fight with the family of Lions, tigers, jaguars and leopards, could be good Idea.

never heard about the cats consiparicy? if you against them, they attack you on the night when you be un ready.
I had a brother who was against them. they puke on him, jump on his sensetive parts, and sat on his face when he slept.

don't do that mistake, beware th great cats!

Fat cats are cool :D

We used to have a dog: I was a dog person. As we ave no mice, I see no call for cats...

Fat cats are cool :D
yes, I had one black fat cat. he is nice, when he don't sit on your sensetive parts.
by the way, you know that reserches prove that cats had no system that tell them when they eat to much?
you could gave them one spoon of cat food and they don't want more food. or you could gave them much food, and then they eat until it was to much and puke.
my cat even eat the things he puke. it really good you don't had to clean after them too much.

I do! :D :D :D

I didn’t think we had mice either until Whiskers I brought me one she had killed one morning. I told her she was a good cat, praised her for getting the mouse, and disposed of the dead rodent. Two mornings later, while I was sitting in the bathtub she brought me another one. When she dropped it on the floor, I noticed the mouse was still alive. I told her she was a good cat and when she was finished "playing" with the mouse to bring it back. She did.

Moral of the story is; "Only the cat knows if you have mice or not."

Dogs are good too, but I prefer the purr
