wellll, I know the difference, but-
my living room looks like a Kindergarten from all the toys.. and there are no children here...
and typical communication often goes "Mummy wuvvvs the wittums..."
I only have one cat
LOL. I talk to my animals too, but not in a baby voice. I dont even talk to babies in a baby voice. It was embarrassing enough when my bf caught me talking to the baby ducks in the hen house.
I have two cats, they are spoiled and fat. Ive been a cat person since I was little. Funny to see women in here who wouldnt date a man with cats. Cats add alot to your life. I like my cats better than most people I meet. My wife wasnt crazy about cats when I met her, but after 19 years together she is coming around.
I'm a 38 year old man, and currently going through a marital breakdown. I am now left single, separated and living with three cats; one is a hyperactive adolescent, one is a fat dopey thing, and the third has three legs. They cost an arm and a leg to feed and I worked out I spend more on catfood and litter than I do for my own grocery shopping. It was never my idea to get cats, and prior to my marriage I had only ever had a goldfish. Now I am responsible for cleaning, feeding and sifting through their poop. I must admit I am somewhat attached to them, however, I believe its rather embarrassing to have three cats - and I wonder about how ''freaky'' future partners will find it.
I also find myself talking about them (the cats) in social situations, and am beginning to worry that I am losing my mind.
Any advice is welcome (my parents suggested throwing them off my balcony, but they are not really ''animal people'', and I would feel bad for both the cats and my neighbours' below).

Wow. That only proves you are a nurturer though I don't know how you came to be when your parents aren't LOL.
Isn't it in many movies and even that millionaire matchmaker. Psychologists/psychiatrists or even matchmakers often suggest you either get a pet or a plant before being in a relationship because apparently if the pet or plant is still alive in a week you prove you can take care of others. LOL.
The matchmaker said if you are dog lover or pet lover you are a natural nurturer.
My husband's family are crazy animal lovers. In fact my husband asked me why none of my family doesn't have pets when we went into my family's gathering one day.
I actually was surprised on my first time in his house that he has 2 cats he said that was his deceased mom's cats. That she asked him to take care of. He also has auto poop scooper, never seen those before.
Glad though now we're married that scooping their poops is less of my problems, LOL. I am not even a cat person. I prefer dogs but gosh I love our cutie cats soo much now. I call them my babies.

Ignore your parents and enjoy your babies. Do you really want to be with someone (future partner) who doesn't like cats if the cats make you happy? I never cared what guys thought about the amount of animals I have. If they didn't like it I didn't care.
My BF went from zero animals to me. Right now I have six dogs, 7 cats and a bird (I foster). He had no idea he was such an animal person. I take mostly abused/neglected animals and he is amazing with them. He is always buying toys and treats for them. He never thought he would be with someone who always has so many animals around but I rescue and I always will. He enjoys them and they love him. He misses them when they are ready to be adopted but looks forward to the new ones I take too. Makes me love him even more.
If a girl I dated had multiple cats, her biggest worry would have to be that I would give all my attention to the cats and not her.
