First thing I told the allergist "If you tell me to 'get rid of the cats, I will leave right now & save us both a lot of time'". I spent years being injected so I wouldn't keel over from asthma & eczema & rhinitis. But I had my cats & still do. Old man Budzig across the road had barn cats breeding freely. They would come over for a visit & I never let them return. They all were caught, spayed/neutered & lived in my garage. I had 16 at one point. Hey. What is our money for if not to facilitate what we strive for? Tula just passed away & out of no where Zoot Suit appeared to ease my anguish. Cats always find me. Special animals.

Yup! I love my kitties as well. They are the best anti-depressant!

What's the average amount of time you spend watching cat video threads on YouTube?

I love my two cats SO much. I never set out to have any pets at all. But they found me and I don't know what I'd do without them.

that's why I love dogs.

Cats are very unique friends

I love cats too. For me they are the best of companions. Our current cat - Jasper - is such a gentle and mellow dude. The first night we got him from the humane society he sat in my lap for about an hour. He was scared and confused. But I sat with him, petted him and talked to him. Took a while for him to come out of his shell, but now he is a handsome, good-natured fellow who is gentle with people, but also lives to keep the birds and squirrels in a state of constant readiness. There is not a bad thing I can say about him. He is great. How can you not feel better if there is a happy cat in your lap? That cat is a discerning individual and he decided you were worth the effort. I love the way their fur feels when stroked. I love the mild musky scent a cat has. And those eyes which can be either kind or savage. I even love those slightly disapproving looks a cat give you that feel like they can see the weaknesses in your character.

Love the face on that third one

I been through some really mentally harsh times simply because I am / was a magnet for women with NPD. IF NOT FOR MY RELATIONSHIP WITH MY CATS I WOULD HAVE CONTINUED SLIDING INTO A DARK PLACE OF NO RETURN! tHEY ARE MY FAMILY! Next topic?

That's the realist reason I've ever heard for liking cats. I agree!

Cats are some of my most crazy companions.
