NOt that it matters but im just curious? This site seems to be 99 percent women! Do men not love cats anymore?

Typically loving cats is kinda frowned upon. At least in my neck of the woods.


I am not too sure if I am a cat lover just yet. I just got 2 11 month old cats 2 days ago. I am more of a cat enthusiast. Oh yeah I am a guy.

Yes this site does have a lot of women (I being one) but my DH loves cats too. He just does not have the time to chat on forums. I know that there are a lot of women here whose significant others love cats but just don't post here.

Tee, Hee. I thought you meant do you love Male cats. I do, I have three. I love the females too though, they are not as gross as the males. same for humans.

My hubby adores his little 'hairy children' as much as I do. I think most guys are cat fanciers at heart but just don't want to show it. Something about the male attitude?...

Jeremy (my fiance) is an animal lover, as is his mother and brother, but J is a dyed in the wool cat guy.

That reminds me of a T-shirt I have, which says, "Real men admit they love cats!"


My s/o told me he really wasn't much of a cat lover when we first met, but now he's almost as "addicted" to my furbabies as I am.
Although I think that he loved them more than he's willing to admit, b/c he always used to feed the strays that were roaming around in his neighborhood..

Mah Daddy loves cats. =) But he's not on the site. =( In fact, it's his fault that I love animals so much, and it's also his fault that we kept my foster kitten. =3

Am I mentally challenged or does that make four cats?

Anyway I'm also a guy, and have three cats.

I'm not gay either if you wondered

Nope, there are four that I listed but I currently only have three. Midnight passed away last June from CRF.

Apologies, I understood what you meant with Rainbow Bridge too late... it's not an expression I immediately recognize since it's never used in French and I barely hear it in English to begin with.

Sincerest apologies about your baby...

No apology necessary and thank you for the condolonces.


You live in Quebec? I've been to Montreal once- went to a tropical fish auction with a couple of friends. I don't know any French but I had a lot of fun for the few hours I was there.

I don't think there is a wildly disproportionate number of men who like cats, I think there is just a disproportionate number of men who want to join a forum to talk about cats. Personally, I don't like dogs at all. I don't own one, and I wouldn't want to. But I like cats.

I think you've hit the nail on the head. My husband is a member of this forum but doesn't post that much. But it was his idea to get a cat in the first place (I had to be convinced) and he cuddles them, sings to them, and carries them around in his arms. When he's on the internet though, he'd rather talk about music or formula 1 and tends to gravitate more toward forums with those subjects!

All the men in my family are cat lovers, but I can't imagine any of them would actually take the time to chat on a cat forum...
