skylive5 Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 LOL Never have understood the hate for cats some people have. But, over the years we have had: Dogs Cats Goat Pig Fish When I was a kid we had no pets until I was around 14. Then I had a dog. My wife on the other hand had pets around from the gitgo. Including a skunk, a bobcat, birds, cats, dogs, and a whole menagerie of other types. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 LOL Never have understood the hate for cats some people have. 1480852[/snapback] I'm allergic like a bassturd, that certainly doesn't help. And to me they're useless. A dog can protect your house and family, fetch the paper, catch a frisbee, go swimming, etc. A cat sit arounds and does a whole lot of nothing. Pretty much useless. Might as well get a stuffed teddy bear (insert plug for Keggerz here), at least they don't sh*t and p*ss in the house. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They weren't pets though and didn't live in the house. They lived in the barn and let me tell you... they were NOT useless.... small varmits were not happy to meet those cats. Cat next door (daughters) lives mostly outside. Whenever a mouse shows up in their house (seldom) they bring the cat in... that night it is buh-bye to the mouse. Everytime. Don't see their two dogs taking care of business like that. I have never seen a reason for a dog being in a house. Dogs belong outside with room to roam. Keeping a dog of any kind of size inside is just cruel FMPOV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no problem with this for the exact reasons you mentioned above. They're smart enough not to go into the back yard where my dogs hang out too.

untateve Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 Here's my problem with cats: One day, you reach down, pet the cat and it purrs and sits in your lap. The next day, you reach down, pet the cat, and you pull back a bloody stump. Cats are too much like women. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of these days I will have to tell you my killer cat story. Cat had to weigh in at 40lbs at least. F'er was HUGH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh 0ne Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 LOL Bet they tease them a bit though. 1480889[/snapback] Funny you say that. They'll come right up to the front glass door when it's closed, drives the freaking dogs nuts. The dogs wouldn't hurt the cat, they would just want to see what the cat was about. The problem is, they are big dogs and high energy, so when they go to check something out or say hello, it's intimidating because they come at you fast and furious, albeit harmless. They reserve the killing for chipmunks, squirrels and birds, which they're quite proficient at. Although I did find a dead cat under my shed a few years ago, but I'm sure that was not something the dogs did. I think it was an old cat that found a quiet place to die.

georgemoe Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 I generally stay away from these topics due to many huddlers disdain for cats. Some of you are downright rotten. Love dogs but do not live a lifestyle to be able to properly care for a dog. I could not pen the thing up like some people do. The Mrs. and I have three abyssinian cats. All are indoor and have their claws. While they look similar in shape to a Siamese, their faces resemble that of a small cougar. And the ears are trademark. A kitten looks like it's all ears. Yes cats are lazy. Who cares? If you have fish, what would you call them? Enjoy your dogs, cats, ponies, frogs, birds, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, the porch was built over an set of concrete stairs. The cat got up on top of the slab and in between the floor joists to final rest. After a while, a foul stench appeared. Not a pretty site removing the cat. In pieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as dogs being in a house, I think that overlooks a dog's need to be with their people. Dogs are very social animals, and have an uncanny nack for interaction with humans. It's almost like it's been bred into them. I don't mind cats, but don't want one as a pet. Then again I have Birds, and that would be a bad mix.
