This is my orange cat Ripley. She’s passionate about recycling. Where stoopid hoomans see trash she sees a new fun toy. We also have an older Siamese. Both are great pets.

I am a cat person but if your cat ships in my yard or walks on my car I am going to be pissed and you will hear about it from Karen.

I wouldn’t say cats are stupid, lol. They know they rule and have their owners trained. A cat could care less what you want them to do. You are their servant. Although I’m a dog person, I’d choose to reincarnate into a cat if animals were the only option. Let me chill, leave me alone and I’ll find you if I need attention.

I love when the first line of cat owners is… ‘my cat thinks and acts just like a dog’ No it doesn’t. And get a dog and quit hoping your nasty cat is a dog
If this wasn’t a public forum or if I needed the money, I would post on YT and go viral with mine with videos of these untrained fetches. I don’t think of it much anymore because it’s more annoying than anything when you have to throw an object 100x a day (and they return it) for it to leave you alone. If anyone has tips on how to train them not to, I’m all ears.

Cats are awesome. They are like back ground entertainment unless you want to interact with them.

Vastly underrated. Low maintenance, good companions, no need for walks or being taken out to shite all the time or any need for constant attention. They keep pests away and don’t slobber all over the place. I could go on and on. When it’s 30 degrees out and people are out escorting their dogs to their business, I’m warm inside.

Infinitely better pets than dogs. They’re independent and can take care of themselves which makes it easier to handle them.

Underrated targets for target practice.

I used to not care for cats, but over the past few years I have begun to appreciate how unbelievably athletic they are.

If humans could jump as proportionately high as cats, we'd be able to jump straight up about six stories.

And they can do things like that because their nervous systems are so finely tuned and sensitive, which is one big reason they do not act like dogs and they have to approach you on their terms. They are easily overstimulated.

I'd like to get one.

Check out Munchkin cats. Consider them wiener dog cats with their long body and short legs. We have one that looks very similar to this and it is a total trip. Most unique personality in a cat I've ever been around.

Our fella is almost 17 years old .. we’ve had him for almost 16 years. I’ll miss him when he’s gone … I will not miss the shedding. But he’s just the best ever.

They seem to think it is okay for their pet to run around shitting in neighboring yards and flower beds.

Our snowshoe rescue. He loves to hide behind a chair and jump out at you when you walk by. Our ambush cat.

Same exact thing happened to me. I was never a cat person...then a mamma cat brought a kitten up to my deck and left it.

I had to force feed it a bottle but now is best friends with my dog.

What kind of retard cat did you have? Dogs smell, cats (unlike your retard one) don’t.

Not if you have a litter robot. Spend the money, it’s worth it.

I love both dogs and cats. But in a hierarchy scenario the top line feline will dominate the top line canine.

I'm more of a dog person and have only ever owned dogs, never a cat. But if that's what floats your boat, then who am I to judge?
