maybe it's too big of a word, extreme distrust would better express what I feel for cats

speaking of cats here's some old but damn funny cat movies

how can you hate cute little kitties?

Lalanae · Post by **Lalanae** » May 27, 2003, 5:03 pm

Were you bitten or scratched by one when you were little? Most people I've met who don't like dogs or cats have such an experience, usually with a pet who finally got fed up with having their tail pulled by some rowdy 6 year old.

cats are the ultimate in cool animals. they don't give a fuck about you, but you love them anyway. and if you piss one off, they don't care how much bigger you are than them, they will kick your ass.

My cat is more like a dog.
He won't leave me alone as soon as I walk in the door and puts up with all sorts of abuse (not cruelty).

He used to walk along the sidewalk with me to the deli in my old neighbourhood... and he terrorized the Dobermans next door.

My Mom had a 6lb black siamese that was the terror of every dog in the neighborhood. He'd go outside to play with the kids who lived on the street, and all the dogs would dissapear, he'd sent most of them to the vet at least once. The neighbors sheepdog would piss all over itself when he came near

I recently lost my family cat Ethan who was about 13 years old. He was awesome because he had dog-like qualities I had never seen in cats before. He'd play with the next door neighbor's German Shepherd without getting freaked out and would merrily approach anyone who came inside the house. My sister would dress him up in little doll clothes and he would just walk around like he didn't care.

It was devestating to my family when we lost him and just thinking about him gets me choked up. Its hard to imagine visiting my parents and him not coming out to say hello.

I hate house cats. Mousers and other verminators I like. My last cat, Stupid, was the best. She used to leave us little trophies on the doorstep a couple times a week. We didn't know how big a problem she was keeping in check until after she died and we had to get an exterminator to take care of the mice.

Hahah that video is great!!

My cat LOVES water. If I don't keep the shower or bathroom door closed all the way he'll hop right in the shower/bath with me.

His favorite thing to play with are straws. If I bring home fast food, and leave it on the table for more than a few seconds unattended, he'll ignore the food, and go straight for the drink. He knocks it over, yanks the straw out, and hauls ass. =p

Wulfran · Post by **Wulfran** » May 27, 2003, 5:43 pm

I love dogs, for their unfailing love and devotion but nothing beats a cat. The variance of personalities they have is just too cool. When I was in my teens, we had a cat that sounds like the identical twin of Aabidano's: she slept outside most nights, and many days would limp to the back door in the morning because her claws were too full of German Shepard/Husky/etc fur for her to pull em back in: only thing she ever lost fights to was my mother

(we lived on an acreage and all the neighbours had big dogs b/c the coyotes ate lil ones that didn't stay inside). She disappeared when she was about 7 and we thought it must have been an owl or a hawk: nothing else was fast and mean enough.

Acies · Post by **Acies** » May 27, 2003, 5:50 pm

I miss Tinker.
Tinker-bell was about 40 lbs and built like a bobcat with a slightly squishy underside. He was stark white with huge whiskers, domesticated.
We called him the great white hunter, for his morning routine of catching and killing field rats and leaving them on our back porch, decapitated.
One day we found a fox there, heh.
The only cat I know who could rip the throat out of a lab while a day later catch (and devour) a hummingbird.

My mother ran him over when I was 17. I hate her

Asheran Mojomaster · Post by **Asheran Mojomaster** » May 27, 2003, 5:55 pm

40 lb bob-cat? I WANT ONE! Our cat that we had for around 7 years died a few months ago and we now have mice in our house, and cant kill them faster than the little fuckers breed...got a new kitten now though and training her to be a killer!!! (Lots of mouse toys, she ripped the stuffing out of one!)

Lalanae · Post by **Lalanae** » May 27, 2003, 5:58 pm

My mother ran him over when I was 17.

Only a couple years ago did I find out that my mom accidentally killed my little sister's gerbils a long time ago. My mom was using some hard-core sealant or something for our bathtub, and the next day my sister (who was about 9) woke up to find them dead with bloody noses. My mom looked at the stuff she was using and realized it cautioned you not to use it with small animals in the house. My sister still to this day believes they died naturally, never thinking how odd it is that they both died at the exact same time...

Cats and I usually ignore each other except for food and water needs, and all is well.

Our current cat is a Maine Coon. The goddamn clumps of hair all over the house SUCK ASS!!

Not a cat fan ATM....

lol, it wasn't a bobcat, it was about the size of one.
Tinker was smart, even given a cats normal increased aminal intellect.
I miss him, and wish he had kids.
If I can, I will get a picture of him here. Gotta find a few now...

((Edit: I call him it, due to the ball cutting he recieved when he was two...))

Ennia · Post by **Ennia** » May 27, 2003, 6:04 pm

I don't really hate cats. I mean I've never been bitten, been scratched couple times while playing with kittens but nothing major that my dog haven't done also. One thing that I noticed is cuts or scratches done by a cat heal slower. Might be just a weird coincidence.

I think I'm more of a dog person. Never had a cat of my own and only cats I came in contact with were friends' pets or my grandma cats.
Now my grandma lived in the country, her cats were mousers as someone called them. You could rarely see them by day and if I stumbled upon one somewhere they quietly ran away. Seeing their eyes at night was always spooky.

I like that independent nature of cats but for me that doesn't make a ideal family pet. They're like my tropical fish, you look at them, they look at you, feed them and otherwise leave alone.
When my daughter asked last year for a cat we did consider it, but everyone I talked to discouraged me from getting a cat based on never owning a cat and having a 5 year old kid in the house. Apparently not a good combination.

So we got a dog, love her to death. Maybe one day I'll try to add a cat to this zoo, although I am a bit sceptical about having to deal with dog-cat problems. My dog seems to hate cats, she chases away neighbours' cat that sometimes comes over to sleep (sunbathe? whatever he's doing laying around there) on my front porch.

Lalanae · Post by **Lalanae** » May 27, 2003, 6:15 pm

I think dogs are better pets for little kids because they are typically less cranky and more of a companion. Cat's won't follow you around and little kids love the unconditional buddy.

Bakara and I have a chinchilla who is a complete doll. We also have a dwarf rabbit who is rather fussy, but he was a pet store animal, and they're always psychological fucked up when you get them. Once they pass on, we're going to get a dog, a little tiny dog of some sort. I miss having a lap animal.

I'm a cat person, although I did have a husky when I was 5 that was great. Although after it ran off and my dad kept having to chase it down and it nipped me on my leg (while playing), they got rid of it.

HAHAHA, my sister got a chinchilla waaaay back in the day when Tinker was still around. She left it out on the counter in it's ash bowl thingie. Comes back, and found it's head in the bowl, thats it. What was priceless is Tinker, sitting right next to the bowl cleaning himself and stops to give her a "What?" look.

I am sorry Lalanae.
Tinker, if nothing else was very people friendly, very protective and a hunter. I can see the associassion with a rat and chinchilla in Tink's mind, but really the cat would have been fine with the fuzzy thing if my sister was more responisble with it. She lost it the day she got it, instead of allowing time for tinker to understand this was a family member, not prey.

Of course, I will have to take your word for it that chinchilla's make good pets.
For me, it was when Q-ball (My mothers fat and stupid chiuhauha), who was a family member, was being chased by the neighbor's angsty lab and watching Tinker cross a field in the blink of an eye.
He killed that dog to protect Q-ball. Much love for my cat, god keep him well.

I have the 2 black cats I posted before....they are about a year old now.

I saw a few posted cats don't care about people...my cats do...they like to follow people from room to room...especially me. I mean like if I come down here (my computers are in the basement) they will sit in the chair enxt to me or under my desk.....for as long as I am down here, which in EQ days could be 10 hours...but you won't catch them here when I am not down here.

Same with playstation, it's in my 4th besdroom, you will only catch them in there when I am in there playing...and they will stay for hours on the futon next to me.

And if I'm in the livingroom they will be on the back of the couch, the other couch, or the diningroom chair closest the couch.

If I'm in bed they follow me up there, wait about 20 mins and then they jump on the bed next to me and usually stay all night...mostly in the hammock that forms between my legs..which means I can't move without disturbing them.

If I close the bedroom door because I'm showering with guests over they sit outside my door.

They are obviously somewhat attached to me.

You should see a cat when it's high. I was at a friend's party and he and about 3 others were puffing away at teh weed in his bedroom with the door closed in order to isolate the stench to just one area.

They forgot to put the cat out and that poor sucker was zipping its neck all over the place with a huge, buggy eyed stare. I nearly died laughing when I tried to imagine what it was seeing.
