But they are highly correlated if you own more than 2.

Don’t hate me; I love cats. I’m just playing...

A study sponsored by Fancy Feast?

I believe that owning a cat CAN make you mentally ill. LOL. Just ask my cat!

cat ownership and psychotic symptoms at age 13, but this turned out to be due to other factors.
Other Factors??
Television and the Entertainment Industry ore the “Other Factors” the Study refers to.

Heh. I found it interesting that some of the anti-schizophrenic drugs appear to act on T.Gondii (a common cat-based parasite) rather than directly on human brain chemistry.

If ever there was a ‘study’ that had no legitimate purpose, this is it!

Nobody ‘owns’ a cat!
Dogs have ‘owners,’ cats retain staff!

there is somewhere a report of a virus carried in cats, transmissible to humans, which can cause strange mental changes. Some get depression, other some weird kind of euphoria...no, I am a cat lover, but I am going to pass.

Definitely some serious correlation between number of cats and mental wellbeing.

But owning a CALICO cat is an indication of existing mental illness....
