Nothing. We love our kitties like children!
You don't ever own a cat, they own you.
I'd like to hear you say that to an animal hoarder.
True. We are cat "guardians".You don't ever own a cat, they own you.
Don't own one, but I would say cat hair and the fact they get everywhere.
True. They like to claw and chew on stuff. hehe
The most annoying thing about owning a cat.. Owning a cat ?
My ex was desperate to have cats as soon as we had our own property, but I never particularly "got it". To me they were just an additional expense that give you little in return. It's often been suggested that cats wouldn't blink twice at losing their owner(s), and simply move on to the next person that gave them attention!
Needless to say, when we separated she was welcome to keep them.

A quick story about one of our cats. I had to do community service many moons ago (don't ask hehe). One of my duties, along with the other guys, was to clean the cages at the pound. One time, we found a kitten in one of the smaller cages. I didn't think much of it, and walked away. Suddenly, the kitten somehow got out of the cage and walked right up to my feet, and looked up at me. I picked him up and petted him. We had to go, but every time we came back (for about 2 weeks), he was there, and I'd pet him and feed him.
After my service was completed, I came back to the pound at night, and sure enough he was there. I called him and he ran along the fence (it was tall and I couldn't climb over) until he found a small opening, ran thru it, then jumped right into my car. This was about 8 to 9 years ago. He is our familiar.
Cats are a great source of joy to me. We have two now but over the years despite all the love we have for each other they disappear. I really do not know what happens to them But as long as they are in our life there is nothing but love between us.
