Not a fan of having indoor animals PERIOD. So, if I were single again, I'd probably have a small issue with multiple indoor cats.

I've been dubbed "Dr. Doolittle" before. So, you can well imagine my good interaction with all creatures great and small. What I object are these "issues": smell, dirt, hair/dander, tread marks, scratch marks, slobber trails, flea infestations.

One must really be almost OCD to not have a least one of these problems in their home stemming from their indoor pets.

I like animals better than people. However, I tend to be allergic to the dander created by short haired dogs and by cats. So multiple cats? I would DEFINITELY have to take some Benadryl before going over there.

As long as my cats like them, I'm ok with it.

My kids have already decided that I'm going to be the crazy old cat lady when I'm old. It'll be just me and my puddy tats.

I only have two right now but one of them eats for six. He's down to just about 20 pounds now.

I won't date a man with multiple cats because I'm so allergic to them. I guess it's fortunate that most men aren't big cat owners, b/c I got in this convo with a single male co-worker recently and he said he has never managed to date a woman who doesn't own a cat--he didn't say this but I gathered it: if he wants to have a love life he has to put up with allergies! Anyway I hate it that I'm allergic because I love kitties.

OMG this question is sooo retarded. Who cares if I have mutliple cats, dogs, or kids?? Isn't it the same shyt anyways??? The animals are cheaper and easier to maintain..

I have a brat cat, Frankie, who is the love of my life. He comes before any man, woman or child period. IF you cannot put up with that, see ya..

And yes, if I could have more, I would and no, there's nothing wrong with me

For me it would be more on how they treat the dog or cat. If they treat the animal like crap, then that's a red flag. If they treat the animal with love and kindness, then I would have no problem.

If you can't take care of a pet, how can you take care of a child?

^^ Exactly...Again, (and I know we've agreed on this before) If I treat my animals like gold, imagine what I would do with a child!!

You said in another thread that you don't like children. Why pretend that you'd be good with kids?

Just because I don't like them doesn't mean I won't be nice to them..IF I ever did have one, I wouldn't be a bad/abusvie mother. Its my choice right now not to have them
