I married a woman that likes cats. Now I have two. One of them has “adopted” me. Sleeps by my head every night. Licks my hands so they are clean before I pet her. Takes up over half my side of the bed and I struggle to turn over at night, so as not to roll over on the cat.
She jumps on my desk and sits in front of the monitor when I am on the computer. When I want to use the scanner, she jumps on top of it so she can growl at the birds outside the window.
Despite all of this, it is calming to hear her purr when she gets up in bed next to me, licks my hands and lays down next to me. Never had cats before.
Becoming attached to them. Does that make me less a man?
I have three. I can take testosterone supplements if necessary.
I’m 68, and have had cats since I was two. A house ain’t a home without a cat. My Mao comes to bed about 6am, curls up against me and purrs. Very relaxing!
You describe textbook symptoms of a Taxoplasmosis gondi infection. But fear not, the symptoms are entirely treatable... by adding more cats to your home.
