I can have a cat, but choose not too because of stories like the one in this thread. LOL

But they're so worth it! Sure, we complain - but they're so soft and snuggly and they're more companionable than assholish at least
:D
He or she was probably upset. That or had gotten old. We had a cat that developed a weak bladder and also had trouble getting around so she started using the bath tub as a litter box at night. She just couldn't get around like she used to and frequent trips to the litter box at night.We had another who'd express her "displeasure" by urinating. They sometimes try to show dominance that way.

She wasn't old and didn't have a problem. Well, not a health problem, she had an attitude problem. But a very smart cat.
I love my cats :)I figure every pet has their good points and their bad points. And its funny. I have no problem cleaning up after my boys. But the idea of scooping up after a dog grosses me out. Lol.

I haven't read it but here's what info I have: https://bookslifewine.wordpress.com/2...
Thanks for the tip, I'll have a look to see if it looks like something I would enjoy :)
I love both cats and dogs, have had both. Find that they are great in different ways. When I get to a time where I can have pets again though, I'll def go for cats. I like that they're so independent, and I think they have more personality somehow (preparing to get yelled on my dog-lovers...)Also with my job having strange working hours, I don't think I would have time to walk a dog as much as it deserves...
I love my puppy. :-D
I would like to have a dog. Our oldest cat (we now have 2...or they have us) is 17+ and I don't want him to have to adapt to a new member of the household. I do hope to have a dog (again) "before I die".
I love cats. But I would love to have a dog one day. We used to have one when I was young, but I don't really remember him too much. But I also want a rabbit. :)
Had a rabbit once. I kinda got bored...Always wanted a rat though.

We had a rabbit when I was a teenager, and I named him Jack Daniels. Then we got a Collie puppy. The rabbit established dominance when they were both the same size, and so even when the dog grew to be about 20 times his size, he was afraid of Jack.
I have two cats and a gigantic dog.No, seriously... Gigantic. I wanted a small to medium sized dog, my fiance wanted a big dog, so we compromised and got a miniature pony (pics under spoiler):
(view spoiler)
As you can tell if you looked at the photos, he's a big baby. He's basically a huge, loving, cat. Sleeps all day, scared of everything. I love him :)
He's destroying my floors though.. I just try not to look too closely at them....
He's soooo cute though. He loves puppies and kittens and carrying around his stuffed toys.One time, when playing, he nibbled my entire head.
And he's sort of gassy...
*sigh* We don't get to choose who we love :)

My cousin had a rat (or two). She said they're nice and really smart.

Yea, my friend had one when we were kids, and it was really cool :) You could train it like a dog.

OMG! He is huge!
I want another dog but hubby isn't down. :(
But then, Benji might get sick with jealousy.
He looks like a huge baby Dawn. Bet he's spoiled.
You couldn't pay me to have a dog. Ugggg.The boyfriend is allergic to dogs and loves cats. Score for me!

Jer's not allergic to dogs, but he does hate them and loves cats.
I don't hate dogs, but I'll definitely take cats over dogs. If I did get a dog, it'd have to be small.
^A rise in blood pressure might be an allergic reaction.
My Benji is the cutest puppy to ever puppy.When he gets super puppyish we say that he's "pupping around."
:-D so cute!

When Rook does anything cute I says he's Rooking around. When he looks at me weird I ask him what he's Rooking at.
Geez... This dog has made me weird :P
Ruh-roh Reorge.

Pets make us all weird. My cat Alfie is white with black patches on him, and when he's sleepy, he gets pink and squinty-eyed, and we tell him that he's got his old man eyes on.
And I call him Monkey, or Monkeyfur. Or Monster.
I refer to the cats as demons because they are pretty evil. And Em's fur grows in a manner that she looks a cylinder with a head, tail and legs. So I call her 'The Log Cat' and then I pick her up with her legs sticking out and she gets mad. It's hilarious.
Alex is my sexy man cat. It's true. He brings the ladies to the yard.
Elliott is my little scardy cat. I call him Sir Smelliott when he comes into the room. He walks all cautious like someone is going to get him but it looks like he's snooty.
I call Benji "Benji Bear." And sometimes pooka. And baby. And i hug him a lot. :)I tried to do a "dog beard" like the "cat beard" but with all the fur and it being black...it just looked like a big ball of black fur, lol.
Lol!! Some of those are hilarious!I've never heard of it before :)
That is absolutely stupid. And I have a cat.I can just picture Maple's unimpressed look now.
:-DThis goes to prove...cats make things go viral.
I like this better:
First thing to mind? Batman!
Definitely Batman.I'd like to apologize now for anyone I may offend with posts today because I'm having an evil day and my sense of humour might have strayed into the mean and petty corner.

My cat used to do this to me all the time! She's vomit hairballs by my bed at night and I'd discover them with my foot in the morning.
gah! She was a contrary cat.
When I was a freshman in college I came home to visit one day. I was laying on the floor wrapped in a blanket talking to someone when she came up to me and peed on me!
