No doubt this woman did a bit of publicized good in her life, but cat ladies are overall very weird people. Anyone really surprised that she never married or bore children?
The cat’s were controlling her mind.....................It’s what they do.................
I know a couple cat ladies. One is a relative.
I think it is their maternal instincts gone awry, in the absence of a decent guy. For at least two, they had very bad encounters with a man or men in the past, and caring for the cats calms them and makes them feel loved.
I would suggest dogs could do the same, and actually protect you, but I think the ladies see themselves in the independent cats, as opposed to loyal dogs.
Oh, and one of these cat ladies is a nurse...
“No doubt this woman did a bit of publicized good in her life”
a bit?
How generous of you.
