    bumping this so I can post pics later of my current kitty (and my previous guy who passed away in January at the ripe old age of at least 16-17).

    If I didn't have a two-pet limit in my apartment, I'd have more cats...I currently have one dog and one cat.

    I am a dog person. I don't mind cats, I wouldn't see one harmed or homeless but I just feel so OCD gross when I see them walking on counters near food and lying on hairy messy couches and the people I know who have male cats their houses really stink of cat. Is that just a male cat thing? I don't know. Anyway, I don't think I could keep up with the amount of cleaning and hoovering you must have to do with a cat.

    This.

    And they're completely arrogant about it to. They walk around in their gross litterbox and then walk on the kitchen table. Leave a piece of chicken on top of the counter? That suckers gone.

    I have 3, I work at a pet store that adopts cats/kittens out.

    This is Pepper, I adopted him 2 months ago from my store:

    All spayed girls.
    My cats are very clean. If you care for them the way they should be, you should never smell "cat". Pet hair is always an issue, with dogs OR cats, unless you have a hairless breed. Just takes a lot of hoovering, but that's not a problem, because I'm a neat freak and hoover every day anyway.

    I like dogs, but LOVE cats. I enjoy how independent they are, as opposed to dogs who are very dependent (and quite needy).

    Haha, I always feel like there's this big rivalry between cat and dog people...which I don't get, because I love them both equally! I adore dogs, too. Am I the only person out there who is both a cat AND a dog person? :tongue:

    P.S. Adorable dog, CR!

    I was always more of a cat person growing up, until I adopted my first dog as an adult. Now I am an equal opportunity cat/dog lover. Both have their pros/cons. I'd like to say that cats are "lower maintenance," but my new kitty Cinder is a complete attention hog...I think eventually she'll be elbowing the dog out of the way to get my attention!

    My cats don't walk on any counters or tables...... nor does my apt "stink of cat." Also, by brushing them regularly you can eliminate the "hairy mess."

    I've had many male cats. They never made things smelly. If they're not neutered, they do mark their territory and that does smell.

    Funny, I think cats are relatively clean compared to dogs. Dogs smell like *kitten* to me. Especially where I live, where it rains a lot. Dogs always smell like wet dog, and i freaking hate that smell. Every time I pet a dog, my hands smell awful. So unless you have a cat the pisses everywhere or is an outdoor cat, I don't think they have much of a smell or create one that is really strong.

    Seven. So far, I'm the craziest of the cat ladies here.

    Cats happen to me. I never set out to have so many. I haven't actively tried to adopt a cat since 1989. They just find me.

    seven for me too! love them soooo much!

    I have both dogs and cats, my dog eats poop, that sure doesn't sound any better than litterbox feet. Then he tries to lick people? Just sayin', not much better IMO.

    I love my cat but i hate the wifie at no. 9 we call her 'Cat Woman' she keeps stealing my cat, she has an issue with him being an outside cat ~ i will add he comes in when he is cold the door is always open well looked after, loved & fed everyday, hes collared and chipped oh & i also have an issue with the person who seems to take great pleasure in stealing his collars and name tags. Seeing as before we moved he had 2 collars in 8 years moved house and hes now on collar number 12 Hmmmmm freaky cat people need to leave my cat the fck alone !!!!! :laugh:

    This is my cat - bringing her home when I get back from vacation in a few weeks. She is at the shelter I volunteer at, has been there since she was a pregnant 6 month old (she is now 5 1/2 yrs old). Her name is Mona, but we are renaming her Miso.

    This is my cat Emilie (from the same shelter) that passed last May (age 17). I miss her everyday.
