I can't understand why some people "dislike" cats. I have a few theories, none of which are very complimentary to the cat haters. I think though that because cats are highly individualistic that many people get confused because they think that cats should all behave in one way. It doesn't work that way. And before anyone gets dirty on me, I am dog owner too. I've also owned horses, fish, birds (I won't have a caged bird ever again though, I used to rescue them and keep them until they were okay to be set free but I have owned bred from captivity birds), mice, rats, guinea pigs...no reptiles except a Blue Tongue Lizard that used to live in my back yard. I also owned a teenage human once. Man was he difficult to train :laugh2:

I have eight and all have different personalities. Some are very independent and wants attention occasionally. Some live for attention. and some cannot get enough

They all welcome me when I get home from work at night, and all respond when called

They are all wonderful pets and somewhat well behaved

I've only got the one at the moment. The max I had at one time was three and all very different. I do enjoy the differences though, I've never had a cat that could be considered a cipher or a clone, they've all had very distinct personalities. Some have been a bit aloof, some have been very cuddly and everything in between. But they were all inviduals.

I had one cat that was very sick and I had to take her to the vet due to her cancer. The night before I took her I slept all night with her. She reached out and put her paw on my arm and we stayed like that all night. I swear she knew what had to be done and was telling me it was okay with her. But then I have been accused of being anthropomorphic - not that I give a shit about that particular accusation.

This is my partner. He was rescued out of a cold, wet box that had collapsed on him and his sister, and she had succumbed to hypothermia. He was given to a "cat person" in town that I had told I wanted a cat, but an orange tiger male. Guess what... that little guy was an orange tiger male. He was wet, cold, shivering, covered with fleas, hungry and scared to hell when they brought him to me and asked if I wanted him. I IMMEDIATELY snatched him up and took him home. He didn't know how to eat or drink, so I warmed up some milk and kind of pushed his little face into it. He licked his face and figured it out. We got him warmed up, fed up, and then did battle in the tub with the fleas, and the rest is history. He was the happiest, most rambunctious little shit, but he's grown into a real lovable little partner. I can't hardly bear the thought of the day we part. I love him as much as I love any other member of my family. He's been with me for fifteen years now... hell he IS family.

LN, re: the other thread, if you had your cat declawed, you cannot make her live outside.

That's what I thought too but when I asked the vet she said she has a declawed cat that lives outside cuz it wouldn't stop peeing in her house. Been happy for 7 years. Said it was okay as long as she still had her back claws. Better then my mom sending her to the pound I guess but I hope we can work thru the litter issues. She uses her box 95%.

I would seriously question that vet. Maybe you could do some research. Anyway, declawed cats are very popular adoptees from shelters, so they are usually not euthanized. That's how we got our declawed girl.

Kitty's pretty happy, sleeps with me at night. Purring beside my head, runs to great me when I get home, plays, sleeps, eats, what more could a cat want.

Cats are wonderful pets. Or maybe it is the other way around.
Our cat is really spoiled. If my husband is reading the paper or a book/magazine, and the cat wants attention, he will knock the item out of his hands.
The cat also has a shrill 'meow' that he uses to get attention. I tend to ignore him sometimes, but my husband always gives in. The cat has him very well trained.

My theory has always been the lack of control we have on cats. Those same people usually have an ultra-controllable dog.

What type of birds did you rehab? I was with a wild bird rehab group for a couple of years. A lot of owls, hawks, a bluejay chick, a roseate spoonbill, herons..... I raised a barn owl from a chick to adulthood and released him. My cat was an incredible hunter who would scratch the door to go out every night at 12 a.m., she would scratch to come in at 6 a.m. and would always have something dead on the front porch. Moles, flying squirrels, wood hares...... she would kill them all and bring them home. I would put them in freezer bags and put them into the freezer for the owl. It's amazing the change in attitude you get when you are taking care of something that needs real food. I remember hitting a rabbit one night with my jeep. I stopped and threw the carcass in the back and brought it home for the owl. I was really careful to not imprint him by only handling him for exercise and feeding. When I released him he flew into the woods on the property I lived on and I never saw him again. Very rewarding.

I used to wander around the neighbourhood I lived in after bad weather during nesting. Sure enough, there'd be the odd chick or two. Sparrows mainly, I like the little buggers, they have great big family groups and they're noisy and chatty and sociable with each other. I managed to get a few to the point where they could fend for themselves but some were just too far gone so I kept them comfortable until they passed naturally. Pigeons as well. Got a Sulphur-crested cockatoo once but he had a bad disease. I was out walking and found the poor little bugger, not a feather on him, running along the side of the road. I think someone couldn't be bothered taking him to the vet. I grabbed him and got him a little jumper thing to keep him warm. I had him for a few weeks but he wasn't getting better so I took him to a specialist vet. She did what she could be in the end he had to be put down for his own benefit. And a crow. Got him from a chick and raised him to adulthood. He used to follow me to school, had to get off the bus and walk him (yes, he would walk along with me) back home one morning. When he left (he was never caged) he was away for a week and then came back with another crow, his new mate. They sat up in the wires and I called out to him. He responded and then they left. I never saw him again but it was nice of him to pay us one last visit with his new mate.

I'll have to side with her on this issue. I've owned at least 30 cats over the years. After having a few de-clawed I will never do so again. Watching the poor little buggers struggling to get around in pain for a few days, watching them attempt to use the claws that are no longer there... And I don't care what any professional says, you simply cannot allow a cat back into the wild again once you take it's only line of defense away.

Whether a dog or a cat, you know what you're getting into when you get one, or at least you should before taking on such a responsibility. Teach them, train them, or even bring them to obedience training if you can't get the job done yourself. But don't simply complain or toss an animal out when it only does what is instinctive to itself.

We adopted our cat already declawed. She is now about 9 years old, and she still has trouble jumping up onto things because her front paws are weirdly undersized due to the declawing. About half the time, she falls trying.

I also have a dear friend whose cat got a life-threatening infection from her declawing surgery.

I am a convert. I never had cats before we were married and she brought two of them along when we started.... we used to have five, now four... and I have no interest in causing them any pain.... furniture is just furniture. With four cats and two dogs, I basically live in a barn anyhow.... our home will never be on the "homes beautiful tour" so I really don't let the scratched up upholstery bother me anymore at all. We're comfortable.

My cat didn't have much problem with the surgery and if she was in a lot of pain she did a good job hiding it. Was jumping up an off high counters, couches, ect. as soon as we brought her back home the day after the surgery. Seems to walk fine, climbs everything she used to except now she uses her back claws to snag hold of funiture and not the front ones. She isn't scratching carpet out anymore either.

I personally wouldn't have gotten her declawed but my parents said I had to or she goes. Never had much of an attachment to carpet and she's such a cute lil fur ball.

I don't. we treat all our animals for fleas regularly and have none around. the home is not a palace, certainly, but it is far from a shithole. I am quite happy with my 1812 federal with its five fireplaces, original wide pine floors, spiral staircase and ten foot ceilings.... and so are my dogs...and my cats are also happy being there and especially glad that I have cloth upholstered furniture! periodic reupholstering is just part of pet ownership.

I never knew a dog or cat that swore an oath to a certain political persuasion.

Cats are very independent. They do what they want to do. Anyone who wants an obedient pet should obtain a dog.
I heard a lot about kids who tear up the house. Never once heard about one being declawed or forced to stay off the furniture.
Our house looks like someone lives there. People who visit know right away that we have a cat. No one objects to the obvious signs of cat ownership. Just as I would never complain about their house showing signs of child occupation.

Cat owners do tend to be free thinkers. We are not uptight about total cleanliness, nor are we control freaks who need everyone to be totally submissive to our whims.
Our cat loves us unconditionally. Provided we feed him, clean his cat box daily, shower him with love and attention, and basically do his bidding.

Real Bluegrass is in Galax, VA, and Wilkes County, NC. Maine does not quite cut it.:pee:

let me guess..... you are asking me to "prove" something, the proof for which, I have no access to and you know it? Have I got that right? I gave you a positive reputation comment...and you LIE about it and claim that I gave you a negative reputation comment, but, seeing as you are the only one with access to your own reputation comments, you are free to continue the lie, and then have the audacity to THEN claim that I failed to MEET your "challenge"? Yeah...that makes a lot of fucking sense. Do you still get an erection playing with your toy soldiers? :lol:

and how the fuck do YOU know where the bluegrass band I was listening to comes from? :fu:

1. You simply ask for information and evidence. Duh.
2. I've never expereinced that happening. Perhaps you have something that you'd like to share with us. An inkling into your homosexual tendancies?
2. Unless its from Galax or Wilkes, it's psuedo-.

1. provide the evidene that proves your claim that I gave you the negative reputation comment.

2. I just get to laughing at how you make eveything so combative. I find you amusing in that regard.

3. How do you know it's not?

3. How do you know it's not?

1. Your zero rep showed up as grey in color, and came along with your note: "you need to really understand that reputation points don't really mean anything to me on this site...I came back here to poke at you from time to time.... give me neg reps... they're like a badge of honor! lol". Therefore assuming that your rep was neg was logical and reasonable.
2. Are you laughing while beating off on your toy soldiers? Thats fucked up.
3. So you admit that I am right then, that true Blue Grass is from Galax and Wilkes.

1. you assumed wrong. when told that your assumption was wrong, you did not correct it.

2. no. I am just laughing at you. I don't own any toy soldiers.

3. If you are going to make a big deal about the difference between true bluegrass and really good bluegrass, then you are a snob.... and certainly not a very discerning musician.

1. You provide no evidence that I was wrong. Instead you accuse me of lying, even coming up with a bullshit definition that calls yourself a liar.
2. So then you lied again, according to your definition.
3. Am I a snob or discerning? Make up your mind.

what a silly man.

1. I positive repped you. I had no idea how that would show up on your page, but I was fairly certain it would not show up as a negative rep. beyond that, who gives a shit?

2. yawn.

3. learn to read: then you are a snob.... and certainly not a very discerning musician.

important word there: NOT.

1. I don't, as you so eloquently put, “give a shit”. You were the one who brought it up in the first place and have been harping on it ever since. Then when called on it you act like its no big deal. How typical for a Liberal Democrat, again not manning up.
2. Case in point.
3. A “snob”, by definition, is discerning. So am I discerning or not discerning?

1. I positively repped you, and you said otherwise. I cannot prove it, but I know your statement was false, if not intentionally false. so be it.

2. tempests in teapots do not amuse me.

3. snob noun 1. a person who imitates, cultivates, or slavishly admires social superiors and is condescending or overbearing to others.
2. a person who believes himself or herself an expert or connoisseur in a given field and is condescending toward or disdainful of those who hold other opinions or have different tastes regarding this field: a musical snob.
versus
dis·cern·ing [di-sur-ning, -zur-] –adjective showing good or outstanding judgment and understanding: a discerning critic of French poetry.

I say again: If you are going to make a big deal about the difference between true bluegrass and really good bluegrass, then you are a snob.... and certainly not a very discerning musician.

1. You called me a liar. Are you now backing away from that accusation?
2. But yet you appear to be amused by yourself.
3. Again you pick and choose your definitions in an attempt validate yourself. Here is the definition that I am using to point out your misunderstanding of the English language.


...one who tends to rebuff, avoid, or ignore those regarded as inferior b : one who has an offensive air of superiority in matters of knowledge or taste m-w.com

What the hell? I don't visit the kitty thread for a couple of days and what happens? It gets nasty. Well, that's the last time I leave you kids alone. There it was, going along nicely with some non-partisan, non-personal posts about cats. I'm thinking, this is good, this is very constructive. I'm an animal lover (not in the Dem way that lieberalism insists :lol:) and I love cats. I come back thinking it's still a kitty thread and people are eviscerating each other.

I dunno, I should let my domestic shorthair on all of ya :laugh2:
