Nature & Animals Do you like cats?

Not much to recommend, cats are easy asf, they mostly just need you to ensure they're fed and have water, beyond that they'll mostly chill and keep to themselves, at least relative to dogs, who want to spend every second of existence within two feet of you.

I suppose these are things I can recommend: if you live in a house that isn't a rental, put in a pet door so they can come and go as they please. Otherwise, it's gonna spray your stuff, and it smells like ammonia. If your funds are good, maybe even have that gland that produces that shit removed altogether. If you ever bring in another pet, it's gonna spray. If you upset it in some way, it's gonna spray. Since you can't communicate, you may be pissing it off and have no clue why, and that is their default reaction to being mad, it's gonna spray.

Also, get it something it can claw on, if you don't plan to remove its claws (please don't remove its claws, that's terrible). Get a spray bottle and hit it anytime it claws your furniture, take it to its scratching post or whatever you get it, show it it is OK to scratch on by scratching it yourself. They're smart and observant creatures, they will follow your lead.

Aside from that, cats are awesome. They're as loyal as dogs, can sense things about you that you may not sense yourself. I'd have one if I wouldn't have to pay its deposit AND monthly rent.
 
I love cats. We rescue and rehome cats here on my ranch as best we can, other wise they just become barn cats & free rodent control. They are absolute savages with small animals but cute cuddly little buddies.
 
I dont hate cats but cat people are weirdos
what about bunny people? probably weirder yet.

ive always had a cat growing up. have one now, sansa, who is currently tearing up the hallway like a menace. i was supposed to get two kittens before i ended up with her. thank god that didnt pan out, kittens are fireballs zipping and zooming and getting into things in ways you couldnt imagine, but you look on in amazement and exhaustion at their shenanigans.
 
Damn… He isn’t entirely incorrect though. We are.
idk, i find dog people irritating. always letting their dogs run off the leash, talkin about "oh he's friendly haha" so they come up and jump all over you with muddy paws, or interact with the dog youre currently with (my sister just got a dog) and youre like, hey, thats great man, but idk how my dog is gonna react to your dog, and we're also tryna train them rn so can you not???

anyways, i find any person weird when they refer to their cats or dogs as their children, or refer to themselves as a parent, even weirder if they baby talk.
 
I'm completely indifferent towards cats as pets.

Dogs are goated. My kids were much better off with dogs as pets than cats. Having young kids and dogs in one house was the best.
