Here’s the denial, so it’s now official: Democrats are afraid of being known for having brain parasites that make them behave the way they do. Toxoplasma gondii, they’re attracted to their predators, as well as to their pee and poop.

Makes a lot of sense, if you think about it. Explains San Francisco in a nutshell.

Your story should be in a Best Practice manual for how to manage both feral cats and farm pests.

If you scoop the litter boxes (1 for each cat) at least once a day and clean up accidents when they happen, your house will smell just fine.

It’s because the cats give genuine affection, no strings attached, except for a couple of helpings of Meow Mix every day.

Agreed. I’m a completely straight guy. My wife and I have four cats - all rescues.

Sophie - 15 years old Tabby Mix - senior lady of the house. Proper, lady-like and reserved.

Mama Kitty - a 7 yr old retired farm cat but is really affectionate and not feral.

Callie- A 3 yr old Torty with only three legs. My wife felt sorry for her and adopted her from a local shelter. A bit reclusive but good.

Hamilton - A 2 yr old black cat. Small in stature but big in personality. Still in his wild and crazy stage but also likes a lot of lap time with us.

My 230# 6’2” husband would beg to differ. I love a man who is sweet and nurturing to animals, even evil cats.

Sure, everyone knows living with 350 cats (25% of them dead) is perfectly normal.

If you want a real cat lady, look up the bio of Aunt Bee. Frances Bavier. She started out as a pinup girl, died with her cats.

Given the lunacy of LIB “feminists” you are going to see many more women living lonely with their cats. No normal, thinking man will have anything to do with them.

Maybe her calling the cats to chow with “Dinnnnerrrr, Andy!” had something to do with it.

It isn’t a thing, but I’m sure it will become another Sexual Orientation. LGBTQCCL.

I’m keeping count. When’s this going to reach at least 100 comments, and not much political.

I had a professor in college whose house I visited. He and his wife (no kids) have many cats. The entire house is set up for the cats, with just a couple of accomodations for the humans.

I've never seen anything like that before, and I never went back.

The thing is your body adjusts. YOU may not be able to smell it, but any stranger who walks into your house smells it.

My neighbors house was like that not too long ago, and they were wandering why they having a difficult time selling their house?

I would walk into their house and almost pass out because of the smell. They just could never smell it.
