My cats (a male and a female) use a gender neutral litter box.
I’m proud. My Scottie puppy hiked his leg to pee on a tree for the first time yesterday. My Goldie is 12 years old and he’s still a squatter.
Gender neutral raising of cats ping.
I have a friend who has a cat they thought was female for 7 years until they found out it was male. It really messed them up. They had a hard time switching pronouns.
They call it tranny now.
I'm down to 2-males and 5-females. Three of them sleep inside at night and they all come and go during the day.
I should have started a website when they were kittens because I'm sure I would be rich by now. It's better than a soap opera and everyday is full of drama.
Anyway, Buster, the inside male runs things. He spends all day counting his females (me included) and making sure just where we are and what we are doing.
Catu, the second male, comes by to eat and get brushed and greet Buster.
The males are perfectly old fashioned human-lke masculine. And all the females are likewise perfectly feminine and ‘catty’.
Feminism doesn't exist in the clowder. Boys are boys and girls are girls.
Our cat seems to be a male, anatomically..... But what a little sweetie!
I don’t think your cats are going to take to being transgender as you think they will...
well unless they’ve been fixed...
Was this article satire? Didn’t seem like it but perhaps I missed a cue.
If true, how is this sort of twisted thinking possible. I’m not talking about cats but as people. It is beyond comprehension that people can truly spout this garbage and be considered a functioning human with a job.
Life imitates “Grosse Pointe Blank”:
Martin Q. Blank: Well, you don’t know my cat, it’s very demanding.
Debi: It? You don’t know if it’s a boy or girl?
Martin Q. Blank: I respect its privacy.
This article is so poorly written that I can’t figure out if this woman is serious and therefore a loon, or if this was a late April Fool’s joke. I just found it tedious reading and not even funny, if that was her intent.
We had a cat who was nursing kittens that was killed by our dog. A few weeks later, we found the kittens nursing on their mother’s brother.
so we called the uncle Princess (it is a joke from Police academy).
of course, it did not stop him from chasing the lady cats in the neighborhood.
Um, because you had their goodies removed?
I have a better idea for this crazy cat lady: why not use the “it” pronoun? Many people do for animals.
Oh wait — that’s specie-ism. We’re not supposed to consider animals as lower than human beings.
Actually, if we do consider cats as humans, I can report Ms. Crackpot to Child Protection Services. Nutty people should not be left in care of living creatures.
BTW, the comments on that webpage are hilarious. I wonder how this woman (sorry, person) even got hired.
What could go wrong, right?
DANG!
The only cat here is a mountain lion who drops in occasionally. We are extremely respectful whether it’s a him or a her, so I suppose that counts as gender-neutrality.
:-)
Until your male cat develops a urinary tract infection.
