Once I raised a few kittens to adoption age, I became a cat lover too! I now have both a dog and a couple of foster kittens who I kept. They all get along great.
It is kitten season now and the little ones have graduated to having the run of the house. ALL rugs are gone with hardwood floors down which makes cleaning pretty quick.
I have owned a few cats, do at this moment, but am admittedly a dog person.
Cat’s are too much like women... to damn fickle.
I don’t hate cats, I have appreciated them in their own way, but I will never feel the way about any cat like I have about my dogs.
LOL! I just got home after spending 3 days in the hospital, the first day in the emergency room.
Thursday my cat bit me while we were playing, not hard so I took no notice of it. Then Saturday morning my hand hurt like hell and was swelling up. At first I thought I had hit it on something in the garage but then the swelling continued up my arm. I had developed a severe bacterial infection and was lucky I went to the emergency room when I did Saturday morning.
I still like cats tho.....LOL!
Cats can be just as bad as some dogs. I once dated a woman who did the cat rescue thing. She had 5 at the time and all were good-natured but after we started dating one older female cat became really viscious towards a younger female cat. I still think it had been going for some time but the owner would not admit it. Then one day out of the blue, it bit the owner badly along with scratching her. I told her the cat was trouble and she tried t get the rescue center to reclaim it. They refused to have anything to do with it. Later on after I stopped seeing her, I learned the cat bit her so badly she had to make a trip to the hospital.
