You've had some F'd up cats. There was this cat that lived next door when I was little, and it was possessed by a demon or something because it would just stare at you and hiss at you 24/7. So one day I went out to get the mail and when I turned to go back in the house I saw that Patches was underneath one of the cars in our driveway just staring at me. I was so scared I couldn't even move. Eventually the cat left and went back to the neighbors house and I bolted for the door. That said, we've owned about 15 cats in my lifetime and aside from one of ours that doesn't like to be picked up, not a single one has been aggressive toward humans without provocation, had a pooping problem, or otherwise been a nuisance. Every once in a while you get one that just isn't going to make a good pet...and it looks like you hit a triple whammy there. As for litter box smell, if you have only 1 or 2 cats and you clean at least every other day, there's no reason that the smell should even be noticeable unless you're standing right by the box. Trust me, there are 6 cats at my parent's house currently (3 litter boxes) and the house does not smell bad at all. Anyway, I think what it comes down to is that if you like cats then you'll put up with cleaning their litter box and teaching them not to claw furniture (if that's a habit they exhibit), and if you don't like them then you're just not going to care enough to do that stuff. To each his own, but I think cats are awesome. Their entertainment value is unmatched, in my opinion. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Wvo-g_JvURI&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Wvo-g_JvURI&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
Considering I don't know what a cha-cha is, I probably won't be too upset by the kind of women who'd think that...
The fact is, single males and cats find common bonds in their shared love of Cheezeburgerz and constantly hasing of them.
You know what, why should I care exactly? I'm trying really hard to figure out why a grown man needs to spend time worrying about what ANYONE thinks. If someone doesn't like you because you own a cat, that says more about their own superficiality than it does about my pet ownership. I'm a grown adult. I do what I want. If you don't like it, I really could give a ****.
It's a proven fact that single men that own cats have more feminine qualities. Just look above to see how emotional and defensive the cat guys are getting.
Deji is the name of cat I had. I lived alone near Huntsville when I had him. He was an awesome pet, but he was never going to an indoor only kind of cat. So I decidedly not to take him to LA with me. In Houston, with my grandparents he has a large yard. He outlived my grandfather and has proven a good companion to her. Low maintenance, useful to have around (kills stuff, entertaining), and can live a long time. My advice is get a male kitten and let him run outside when he's old enough to start scratching your stuff. The literbox should be used for rainy days only. But if you think owning a cat is going to make you suddenly be attracted to sailors i'd say that goes beyond the scope of my ability to help you.
"dogs are submissive, needy, overemotional, take commands easier and sensitive. Cats are feisty, don't take crap from anybody, independent, and make you earn their respect." How much does our choice of pets mirror our own personalities?
And dogs like to sniff each other's butts and poo, along with occasionally eating poo, roll in garbage and then lick your face.
Say what? I let em out and they hang out all day and night on the deck. Keep the birds out of the garden and occasionally kill squirrels and mice. I HATE squirrels. Nasty little tree rats. DIE!
Yeah, it would be about as humorous as the one of the soldier tossing the puppy off the cliff... http://my.break.com/content/view.aspx?ContentID=463231
Great comeback. You really stumped me. I think your missing the point though. It's a cat not a dog being killed. . . .
Yeah, but if you really wanted to keep a dog from licking your face, it's not difficult. But try stopping a cat from jumping up on a counter if it is determined to do so. It's way harder to contain cats.
Wasn't trying to stump you, per se. My point was that abusing animals of any species is not humorous.
