Who Are You Calling a Cat Lady? (#260)

Everyone thinks I'm one of those cat ladies. “Crazy” cat ladies, I believe they're called. People with many dogs are called breeders, or Lord and Lady Grantham if they live at Downton Abbey. People with sheep, goats, and cows are farmers. No one calls the aquarium-lover a “crazy fish lady,” no matter how many Siamese fighting bettas she has. And the adjective seems to attach itself to “lady” rather than “gentleman.” Let's be charitable and assume that's because of the rhyme.

I do love cats. They're smart, soft, incredibly funny, and wash themselves — what's not to love?
