I hate cats, they use my yard with small rocks as a fucking litter box. My dogs get cats fairly often and it is the end for the cat when they do. Best one was the cat that thought it could sit on the fence and antagonize the dogs until one jumped up and got it, it was tug of war after that. I don't like cat people at all. Men that own cats make me think they take it up the ass as they are secretly a woman, women are the ones that love cats. Why are cat haters so preoccupied with violence and homosexuality?

Quoted:
I won't associate with any individual who claims to HATE a domestic animal. I like dogs, I like cats. Neither species deserves the abuse which some feel compelled to visit upon them Cats are aloof, independent, clever, and self-centered -- in short, they have stereotypically feminine attributes. Men who despise cats are, deep down inside, intimidated by females. I'm sorry you doubt your own manhood so much that you find it necessary to kill a wandering cat. Oh, and shitting in your flowers? You must lay awake at night thinking of ways to get back at squirrels, raccoons, field mice, birds, and every other living thing which relieves itself outdoors. Fuck cat-haters. View Quote I don't see how aloof, independent, clever and self-centered can be qualified as "feminine" attributes. |

If you guys who have cats as pets really love them please be responsible pet owners and keep them in your home.
It would prevent more people from becoming rabidly anti cat. U.S. cats kill more than the previous estimate of 1 billion native birds and other animals every year — possibly as many as 4 billion.

She is a feral cat that was rescued from the wild as a kitten. She is fiercely independent and she hates everybody in world except my wife and I, whom she loves dearly. She really hates our one year old granddaughter that comes and visits about once a week. I think she spends the week trying to figure out how do away with the granddaughter so the authorities will never find out. |

1. Pigs Family members of 69-year-old Terry Vance Garner were shocked to discover the hog farmer's dentures and an undisclosed body part in the family's pig enclosure several hours after Garner went missing. Authorities think Garner either suffered a heart attack or was knocked over by the 700-pound animals before being killed and eaten. His brother describes the self-professed animal lover as a "good-hearted guy" whose animals were his life. 2. A hippo Last year, a 40-year-old former Army major was killed in South Africa after being savagely bitten to death by his pet hippopotamus, Humphrey. The man had adopted the 1.2-ton creature when it was just 5 months old, after the animal was rescued from a flood. "Humphrey's like a son to me, he's just like a human," he said. "There's a relationship between me and Humphrey and that's what some people don't understand." Experts have since noted that hippos are actually the most dangerous animals in Africa, killing more people each year than lions, elephants, leopards, buffalo, and rhinos combined. 3. Cats In 2010, dozens of cats had to be removed from a northwestern Pennsylvania home where coroners said the animals had started gnawing at the foot of a dead man, 74, and his deceased mother, 94. The man had apparently been the caretaker for his mother, who died of dehydration after her son suffered a heart attack. Left with no other source of food besides their owners' corpses, the cats' survival instincts apparently took over. 4. Pugs In 2009, a small pair of pugs in Nebraska survived for two weeks on the deceased corpse of their owner after he shot himself. After being found, the dogs were subsequently put up for adoption. A Humane Society spokesman said the animals were unlikely to suffer any lasting psychological damage because "they don't have memories like people."

Probably not for most people, but over the years of growing up on a farm with lots of animals, including large numbers of barn cats, owning cats for years, and volunteering at local animal shelters I've come to the conclusion the only real difference between any members of the cat family is size... that Maine Coon sleeping on your bed is hardwired the same as a Lion on the Serengeti... Dogs are utilized by military and police due to their willingness to be dominated, trained and seeking the approval of their handlers, cats are individualistic minded and don't respond to the type of training in the example you're citing, but if cats were indeed similar to dogs in respect to willingness to be trained they'd have put dogs out of the military/police business years ago... |

My three cats are extremely affectionate, none of them have ever scratched or bit my kids even though my 3 year old really manhandles them sometimes.
They will sleep right by my wife or I if I let them stay in over night. But they prefer to sleep with my kids. The momma cat brings me a mouse, bird, snake,etc every morning. She wont eat them unless I specifically give it back to her, she also wont let the other two cats,dog or neighbors dog have whatever it is till Ive acknowledged her. If I leave for a couple days or like when I was on vacation, there was a line of dead animals at my door waiting for me. She also answers to her name, the boys do somewhat but not as well as she does. Of course they are barely over a year old so I think that will still improve too. |

Dogs are utilized by military and police due to their willingness to be dominated, trained and seeking the approval of their handlers, cats are individualistic minded and don't respond to the type of training in the example you're citing, but if cats were indeed similar to dogs in respect to willingness to be trained they'd have put dogs out of the military/police business years ago... But they're not. We are talking real life....not what if's and could be's... My statement was a dog will die for you....a cat will not...I stand by that and have seen no proof to convince me otherwise. No hypotheticals....no lab created hybrid domesticated lions and tigers and bears. I can go to the pound right now and get a dog that will make a pretty effective family protector/burglar alarm/home invasion deterrent. I'll be looking a long time to find that in a cat. Nobody...and I mean NOBODY, is afraid of a cat. A cat ain't stopping shit from happening to you or yours. Ever. If you came into my house with a gun and a fucking mountain lion....my recently deceased shepherd would have been in the fight right next to me. We may have both died trying to protect ours.....that's my point. A cat would be 1. Out of there quick as can be 2. Done absolutely nothing. Bet on that. Whatever with that "dog wants to be dominated" stuff.....that's what cat owners say to make them feel better. Dogs (often times) have a natural, hard wired desire to protect their property and families from threats. Cats are hard wired to be selfish, arrogant, pricks. If your dislike of cats comes from the fact that a cat can't or is unwilling to protect you, then that's a great deal like the old adage, 'if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail'... if your instrument and perception is protection then by all means have a dog, but to rationalize a dislike of other animals because they don't fit your single point of view is a bit absurd, they're different tools for different jobs, in a manner of speaking... Rats in the barn? I want cats... Visigoths at the gate? A dog is going to be the better tool. I don't have a dog and I do like them, I just prefer cats but it's funny how these cat threads always devolve into the two camps, some love them and others, as in this very thread, call for their extermination... some days I think ARFcom suffers from its own form of Liberal Derangement Syndrome... |

So a cat can make effectively someone happy although it's pretty bad as a family protector. Does that make the cat useless? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Further.... The 5 lb Yorkie, yeah, it may get punted across the room or squashed under foot....but it might die trying to protect you or your child. That was my whole point. A cat 9 out of 10 times will run or worse....just fucking sit there while you die. I own lots of stuff that won't jump to my rescue and try to save me. Does that mean it's all useless? Wtf is this? Are we talking about living creatures or...like...lamps and tables and stuff? A lamp can effectively light a home but...um, yeah....it's pretty useless as a family protector. So a cat can make effectively someone happy although it's pretty bad as a family protector. Does that make the cat useless? You either don't understand my point of view (which is fine) or you're purposely distorting what I'm saying (which is not fine). |
