Re: Who in here loves cats ..
[QUOTE=Levity]and thats why ill never have an outdoor cat. in fact, when i adopted mine, they place made me promise two things: 1. never declaw them (extremely in humane) 2. keep them as indoor only cats.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, it really pisses me off when I meet someone who declaws their cats. If you are too lazy to teach it to use a scratching post, then you shouldn't have a ****ing cat. All you have to do it teach it to scratch a post and to piss in a box and the cat will give you no trouble for the next 10 years.

Re: Who in here loves cats ..
so i guess mentioning that i find the cats vs dog debate to be idiotic and pointless would be missing the fact that people need pointless battles to fight.
so it seems i'm the only idiot, here. oh well. :hammerhead:
Re: Who in here loves cats ..
I have a cat. Love em but he pisses me off sometimes. He's a very finicky eater, one week he eats a certain food, the next week he doesn't go near it. Pisses me the fvck, off, I've had many cans of cat food go to waste because of this.

[QUOTE=Jailblazers7]It is mind blowing how much more convenient a cat is compared to a dog. It would be hard for me to get a dog after my family had cats for the past 6-7 years.[/QUOTE]
yep...cats are infinitely easier to take care of...I had a cat and a dog and recently had to get rid of my dog because I have a baby now and my dog was a biter...
taking care of a cat for me = tending to the litter box and filling his and water dish up once a week....and that is IT
taking care of a dog is a daily chore...they have to be walked and given attention on a regular
I can also go on vacation for a week without having to worry about my cat...a dog you have to do something about which is a pain
Re: Who in here loves cats ..
I like both. I'm not sure both like you though. I had a dog, a little yorkie. She accidentally ran into this enormous Irish Wolfhound, decided I was in danger, and stood in front of me ready to battle it out. She'd have lasted all of 3 seconds, but she'd have gladly taken it to protect us.
Cats if you are in danger more than likely will bail to save themselves.
But i had a great cat for 11 years and my dog for 12 before she passed. They overlapped for 2 years, my dog thought my cat was the greatest thing in the history of the universe. The cat tolerated her worship.
Cats are easier but there is something to be said about being able to walk with the dog, run around the park, etc.
Re: Who in here loves cats ..
Dogs are so much better and it's not even close. Cats don't give a ***** about you. They don't calls dogs "man's best friend" for no reason

I was REALLY REALLY close to getting a serval at one point in my life...I have a seller lined up in Florida and everything. After doing lots and lots of reading I eventually decided against it because apparently they are such a pain in the ass to take care of, and if they ever see daylight then you can kiss them goodbye, they are gone. But they are one of the only exotic big cats that can make for decent pets, and they get like Cheetah size.
All in all though, exotic cats shouldn't ever be pets...
Re: Who in here loves cats ..
That thing is very cool looking, but cats personality wise are so random, i wouldn't want one that big.
Re: Who in here loves cats ..
@p.tiddy,
actually, cheetahs are about 3-4x bigger than servals.
not sure what the laws are where you live, but there's a lot of cat species, and maybe one of those would be a better prospect. pallas or ocelots have both made good pets IIRC.

they can get large enough to where they resemble a cheetah...they are just very slender cats so they don't weigh much
