How many cats, before you run. (dating, women, love, single)

Just curious. I think I'd draw the line at 3. Or maybe two cats and a dog. There comes a point where, yeah, too many cats here. Gotta go.

I don't want to sound the crazy cat man, but I want 5 cats, with a sunroom built for cats.

This is really insulting.

Some dog collector has a bunch of stinky yappers fouling up the environment and they're considered "normal".

FWIW most women I know prefer their cats and would rather have another twenty than to lose one of them to please/catch/keep some cat hating man.

I like cats. I just don't want to date a person with a stable of them. I think it says something about their psyche. This is ME. It's how I feel, If you want 20 cats, go for it. I actually prefer cats over dogs. In dogs, love is kind of built in. In cats, you gotta work for it. But if we started dating, and you had 20 cats, I'd run like Hell. Like if you went to her house and she had 20 stuffed animal toys on her bed. Ummmm...no.

I'm a woman and I freaking HATE cats. I can handle dogs. One or two dogs in the house fine, but I'm not picking up their poop. But cats are evil. I hate them. They hate me.

They possibly think you are the most unbalanced human they have ever met.

@70Ford: What do you think it says about their psyche? I've never understood the 'cat lady' meme.

Am I supposed to care what those evil little creatures think?

I think for me it would just be whatever number of cats makes it hard to live a normal, hygienic life. I love cats, but if a woman has so many she can't possibly keep her house or apartment reasonably clean, then that would be the line for me. For example, cats tend to vomit a lot, and many also shed a LOT of fur. I had just one cat and it was quite a chore just keeping my house clean with a single cat, let alone a dozen or two. I can't even imagine the time that would have to be spent cleaning with a dozen cats. There wouldn't even be time for dating.
