I don't. But I would if I wasn't allergic. So what does that make me? Wanna be crazy?


No one would make a big deal out of the cats if the OP wouldn't mention them in the headline and every single of his post.

Yup! We have two cats. One is my husband's (birthday present). The other loves me a lot but we really got him for the kids.

When we met, my husband was a single guy with a cat. I also had a cat. That's equal but I have ovaries so...I was the crazy one. He was pretty normal, obviously.

p.s. No need for the "shh" emoji; believe it or not, it ISN'T a secret that people own pets. It's actually been pretty common for...I think like eight thousand years? So no problem! You're free to comment on the fact of people owning animals, without censure.

I have one cat, and yes I’m single without kids and I live alone in a house (not a tiny apartment, if that counts). Having a cat hasn’t made me any crazier than I already was.

Most people who acquire more than a couple of cats are adopting strays and homeless ones. They don't care if you call them a cat lady or a cat man. They are people who don't want to see an animal suffer in the wild or be killed in a shelter. Awful isn't it.

I can see that for the OP, those qualities of compassion are not attractive.

Oh my GOD.

People feel this way? Women, I mean? Not "people," sorry.

That's sick!!

Man cats.

LOL

I've only got one cat, but I'm crazy about him...

My boyfriend likes him too.

The cat keeps things entertaining, it's like living with a tiny, incompetent villain. Like Marvin the Martian. He wants to take over the world or something, but he's fluffy and we keep picking him up and giving him snuggles and he can't quite pull off any world domination attempts between naptimes.

One cat is enough for us, he doesn't get along well with other cats anyways.

WAIT, two negatives, when multiplied together, become one positive.

It seems you want to put this woman down because she didn't go out with you.


Even the ugliest woman in the world is free to reject men she isn't interested in.
