You really expended way to much thought and effort on that post, considering its limited returns.

His post made me laugh, yours didn't. I'm not sure why you felt the need to announce to the FReeper community that you hate cats, but you have, and for that, I thank you.

You will be gone soon. Look in to the mirror. People like you have no soul, or if it’s there has been sold to the highest bidder. Making fun of someone’s loss. Troll, disruptor, start working on your next screen name.

Whatever. People who actually live with cats are entitled not to agree. I have a feeling you can’t leave it at that; you’ll be moved to pull an athiest troll on a devout Christian thread act.

Didn't you know, this is a cat-lover caucus. It says so in the title. Wait, nevermind. I don't like cats either and I really hate the claw marks on the bootlid of my freshly painted MG. Thanks, cat.

Great post! God bless the little furballs. I have three, and could not ask for better animal friends. Dogs are great too!

Children do the same thing, do you hate kids too?

But really, I see know reason to keep an animal that is sneaky, manipulative, looks down on you, and cannot really be trained.

Yes, it is much better for you to spend your time learning the difference between "know" and "no".

Our rescue cat, Jackson Silver, loved our sick dog, Gypsy. Jackson showed so much respect to Gypsy, he worried over her and played with her, they were best buds. Jackson died of cardio myopathy two months ago, and Gypsy still stands in the backyard looking for him every time she goes out. We didn't see a sneaky, manipulative, snooty, untrainable cat, but an animal with empathy towards another. I'm sorry your life has been empty of such an experience.

“...Whats to love? If my opinion offends you, sorry. But I express it nonetheless.”

True, you do express it. And it certainly is improving your status here, overall.

Proud we are of you and all your good works!

Continue on, good man. We all know you are correct and our compassion is just mere folly.

Woe be to us and our silly sentimentality.

It appears you are in fine company....

And won’t it be appropriate that a Viking Kitty takes him out?

(*grin*)

“I hate cats.”

Ha. Nope. You don’t, you clicked and gave yourself away. (You once had a really horrible cat named “Slasher” who kept you scarred all over from the baths your wife insisted you give him, and who was picky about what he ate, who slept on your bed and shoved you over to the side, lying in the crook of your leg and causing you to sweat something awful, who begged arrogantly at your table, who yowled petulantly when he wanted outside, who also yowled petulantly when he wanted to be let back inside at night and go to sleep on your lap in the easy chair, who was SPOILED so rotten everyone thought he was awful; but - you hate cats . . . yeah, sure ) Twinkie knows these things; you may deny it, but this is the REAL truth, CC.

Taken it upon myself to zot you? I don’t have that kind of power here. For hating cats? Grow up.
