I Fucking Hate Cats

[Chankgeez]

Cats are way easier. make sure they have food, water, and clean litter and they're golden.

If the cat's an outdoor cat, you don't even have to clean the litter.

Sometimes you don't even have to make sure there's food. Cats can catch their own.

That is adorable.

I hate cats too and my dogs currently because they are dicks. I might like cats if I weren't deathly allergic to them. No joke. They can kill me.

Yeah, not much you can do about allergies

I have two problems with this, baring you live in the middle of nowhere:

1.
I wish cats had to be tagged and licenced like dogs do. If you're going to have a pet, take care of it. Oftentimes if it's roaming the neighborhood, its either causing someone else grief or in danger of being hit by a car.

2.
I live in Arizona, and there are way too many things that could eat them...coyotes, bobcats, mountain lions, eagles, hawks, etc. My cats are indoors only.

I don't mean to come off as self-righteous or anything, but I wouldn't want my cats pooping in someone else's yard, and it would break my heart to have them hit by a car or eaten. Or shot...some people are cruel. That said, if you live on a farm or something, semi-stray barn cats to keep the rats at bay are fine. But mine are pets as opposed to pest control.

I love dogs but I'm a cat person. Less of a pain in the ass, more attitude. Plus they shit in a box and clean themselves. Most of the time.

Also, dogs have to be tagged and licensed in AZ? That some kind of Joe Arpaio crackdown shit radiating into the pet sector?

I mean, I assume so? I don't have a dog so I can't say for sure, but growing up in Michigan they did, but that also could have been because my folks were AKC breeders.

But my point was, if you own a dog, big or small, you don't (or shouldn't) let it roam the neighborhood. I feel it should be the same for cats. There will always be stray dogs and cats, but I've never liked the idea of letting a pet out and they'll come back when they feel like it.

My cat becomes a wrathful demon if I keep her inside all the time, so I have no choice but to share her terror with the outside world.

Yep. My allergies preclude me from even considering liking cats.

My cat and I are civil after 6 or so years of human-feline negotiations.
She is great for patting until she decides she's had enough and razor blades my fucking hand.

I'm a dog person whose wife got a cat while we were waiting to plan for a kid.
Then she fell pregnant by accident.

I don't care what you say, this is goddamned adorable. This was right after we got him.

And more recently...forced perspective makes him look much bigger than he actually is

Get the fuck out of here with your cat propaganda.

I hope she was OK.

We are still recovering.
Turns out children are a chronic syndrome.


Wait, were you talking about the cat or my wife?

[lost in music]

Dog breath smells like balogna that's been used as toilet paper.

Dogs smell like "wet dog smell" all the time.

I'm a cat person who owns three dogs (allergic GF). That's why we got whippets. Sighthounds are the closest you'll ever get to a feline without actually getting one. Most sighthounds simply don't give a fuck and have a ton of cat-like traits, yet they retain some dogness. They're the best of both worlds.

[Iommic Pope]

Lhasa Apsos are like that as well. Except they don't think they are people, they know.
Best not dogs ever.

Same.

I don't understand you guys who say cats are low-maintenance, though. A dog will eventually chill and lay down somewhere. Cats are fucking obnoxious attention whores. You can't do shit without a cat needing to be on whatever surface you're messing with. If there is a thing, a cat will be on it.

Get off my bed, asshole.
