slo’s TUESDAY 10/17 poll - Cats 🐱

[slo]

Are you a cat person?
If yes….How many cats do you have or how many cats have you had?
(multiple choice)



For Me…..I’m not a cat person due to me being allergic. Even when I was a kid I couldn’t sleep over at anyone’s house that had a cat. It’s too bad, because I think I would enjoy having a cat. My DH is even more allergic than me, so a cat will never live in this house.

My preference is having a dog, but we have had cats and I loved them. I would not rule out having a cat in the future.

My response was “other.”

I love all animals, but I prefer to have a cat as a pet. They're just a little easier. I guess that makes me a "cat person." I love my Silvian - she's a little tortie with no tail. She's willful though and has that tortitude!

I’m more of a dog person but my kids were cat people so we’ve had several cats and I currently have a cat who thinks he’s a dog all together I think over the history I think we’re up to five cats over the years I’ll agree cats can be a lot easier on some issues than dogs Because you don’t have to take cats outside in the winter my current cat litter how many scratching post I buy him and he scratched through circles so far he like scratching my furniture no matter what I have tried nothing can get him to stop

I would love to have a cat, but my aunt calls the shots in this house and she doesn't like pets of any kind.

Love cats!!!

I am more of a dog person, but we have three cats..... Molly, Hoosier, and Oliver.

We are a family! Love dogs too, just easier with our lifestyle to have a cat.

I'm a cat person (but also a dog person). I grew up with both a cat and a dog, and when I married my husband he came with 2 cats, Big Kitty and Little Kitty. He's very original with naming! We lost Big about 10 years ago and lost Little in March. We are fostering to adopt 2 kittens right now that just moved in with us on Thursday!

Btw, if anyone's looking for kittens look for a shelter that does foster to adopt. The smaller kitten that we have has been having a hard time keeping food down. Long story short, she's been to the vet twice and the emergency vet once in less than a week. The shelter paid for it all (probably close to $2000), will pay for any other vet bills for now, and will also pay for them to be spayed. Once they are spayed, they will be ours officially. All we have to do right now is love them!

We’re def cat people. We have two cats and we spoil them like our granddaughters We like dogs but they require more maintenance than we can provide for the time being.

I am 1000% a cat person! We currently have 4 but had 8 at one time. We will probably keep it to 2 as time goes on because it's too hard to say goodbye. I've been more upset over my cats dying than most people. I've attached a couple who went over the Rainbow Bridge. I currently have a mixture of Maine Coons, a Pixiebob and a Russian Blue.

Edited to add names - photos from first to last - Salem, Hobbes, Jack, Riley and Dodge

Current cats are Severus, Luna, Loki and Hooper

 

[Meriweather]

Cat person. We have had a couple dogs....just so much more work.
We travel a lot. Currently we have no pets.
I've had a least 10 over the years.
DGD is allergic so we won't be getting one.

 

[fla4fun]

I am more of a dog person than a cat person, but I am allergic to both, so no pet for me.

 

[mamamary]

Not a cat person

 

[Dan Murphy]

Dog person/family. Have had several in past years. None currently, probably not in the future either.

 

[prairie_girl]

I am not a cat person, mainly because I find it so gross that most people let them climb all over their table and counters.

 

[LoveDaisy]

I am a dog and cat person. I currently have two cats, they are a brother and sister I rescued them a year and a half ago. Boris and Natasha.

 

[RUDisney]

I'd have a cat if I didn't have birds. Once you pull a pet bird out of a cat's mouth, you never want to do it again.

Luckily, Birdie was ok. I got to him in time. I have parrots now, who are out of their cages most of the day, so I wouldn't want a cat to sneak up on them.

 

[The Mayor]

Nope. Not a cat person.
