Penny, you said it EXACTLY! Who wants messy diapers, being woke up in the middle of the night by crying, college tuition, cars, etc. CATS ARE MUCH BETTER!

Well I love all animals but my bond between kitty and I was instant! Cats each have a very destinctive personality! I had wanted a cat for a long time and now I feel lonely when I have to be away from the house for very long! I also toss and torn when she is not next to me in bed!

Meowman, those all fit me to a T. Except I sleep with all the cats. At one time we had four cats and a huge dog and hubby and I and all of them would be in bed. Ever try to sleep with a 40 lb dog pinning the covers down on one side and a 16 lb cat pinning them down on the other? Glad we had a kingsize bed! Now it's only Cinnamon and BigBoy who sleep with us. The dog is out on my parents' farm and Dummie stays out all night and Little Boy is gone to kitty heaven. Cinnamon sleeps on top of me and BigBoy sleeps with his head on a pillow between hubby and me. Wouldn't have it any other way!

Yep those are me all round....althought there is one more......

During the course of the night your boyfriend/hubby/wife/girlfriend ends up either on the very edge of the bed or on the floor because the cats have taken over your side of the bed and you in turn take over their side of the bed :tounge2:

All of the new ones apply to me, as do most of the previous ones.
I'm so pathetic.

Dear Chuck!

Those were great and so true! I have one of my own...Opie has this ritual that he seems to love in the morning. If he happens to come in from being out all nite...he'll romp while talking all the way into the bedroom; and give out this really cute "rrrrrreow" (loud too) wake me up lay on me chest and begin "making bisquits" routine on my neck. Yeah...it hurts! But, I just smile and love him...oh, how cute...look at my boy and we go on for about 15 minutes of pain/pleasure. I'm a sicko, I know! :laughing:

Love & hugs Socs and Tig too!

i have a hiding place
1. You leave a bowl of fresh water on the counter next to the sink so your cats feel like they're doing something they shouldn't.

3. You leave a nightlite on so they can see when they get up for a snack/litter box run in the middle of the night.

4. You speak CAT and have complete conversations with them.

6. Your gone from them for more than 4 hours and can't wait to get home to see them. A vacation of more than one night is unbearable.

7. Most of the pictures you take with the roll of film for the birthday party this weekend ends up being of your cats because they are doing something cute, you have to take (another) picture of it.

8. You may be starving and have no food in the house, but the cabinet with the cat food has every imaginable kind and flavor as well as treats.

9. When you are gone away from home you call and talk to them over the answering machine or you'll call the friend that's cat sitting and tell them to tell your ccats you love them, miss them and to kiss them for you.

10. You go to the store and can't help but to check out the kitty toys or something else that makes you think "My baby would just love that", as if you needed one more thing on the floor for the kitties.

11. You can't go to bed without a cat and keep treats on the night stand to shake and lure them to the bed.

13. You apologize to your cats when you come home smelling like another cat.

14. Even if your cats don't like their tummy rubbed (Socrates in my case), you can't help but to rub it when they're lying on their backs, even if only for a few brief moments before those back legs start protesting, because its just so darn fuzzy and cute.

15. Your non-cat friends look at you strange when you tell them what funny expressions your cats have when they're using the litter box (It really is cute).

16. You like the smell of kitty breath (contributed by my friend Laura).

17. When you accidentally slap/kick your cat while your sleeping and wake up to apologize repeatedly for your error and to ensure they will go back to sleep, thereafter which you cannot.

18. When you have food left on your plate at a restaurant you ask for a box so you can take the leftovers home to your cats as a special suprise.

19. You have Christmas stockings for each of your cats (guilty here).

20. Even if your busy and doing something, you'll put everything else on temporary hold when your cat comes up and gives you THAT look (love me now).


all of these are so great, but, these are
definitley the ones i am guilty of...

about the cat breath thing, LOL, i thought i was the
only one who didnt mind the smell, it doesnt bother
me at all, but, their other pet, Cameron, cant stand
it and thinks i'm loony!!

Everything about those lines are true. Don't forget....you know you're a true cat lover when you sing little ditties about your cats in the shower.

ok, now you guys are probably all going to think we're weird, but our cats LOVE to be in the bathroom with us, even when we're using the "facilities" and in fact, our boy likes to sit on our laps when we're - well, you know... i don't have to spell it out for ya!

when we have friends over, we have to warn them not to let the cats follow them into the bathroom unless they want a kitty on their lap while they're in there!

I know, I know, it's weird, but what can I say?

I didn't want to memtion it because I thought my kitty was the only one to do that
follow you into the bathroom & jump in my lap when your well, you know what! She loves to jump in the sink also to get a drink when we brush our teeth
We'll just stand there & wait till she's done like a good owner should!!:blubturq:
