cat owners suck too. at least around here.

I live in Los Angeles and there are about a billion cats that roam the streets. my dumbass neighbors keep feeding the strays, and they keep killing every fucking bird, lizard, etc. in the neighborhood. did you know that cats kill 2.4 billion birds in the USA alone every year? and that they contributed to the extinction of 63 species of birds, mammals, and reptiles in the wild and continue to adversely impact a wide variety of other species?

they shit everywhere. and the fucking cat food these idiots leave out attract rats. the cats kill the rats, so now there are dead rats and rotting cat food everywhere.

the cat owners are almost as insufferable. literally every week you see a post on next door about some idiot who is crying due to a coyote eating their cat. there are a fuckload of coyotes in Southern California, you can see them almost every night, next door is filled with stories of people having their cats getting killed by coyotes, yet you're somehow shocked a coyote killed your cat?

the cat owners get all defensive when people tell them to keep their cats indoors, saying shit like "but my cat really wants to go outside!" no shit, it wants to go out and kill other animals for no goddamn reason.

if you own cats and keep them inside, that's fine (I still think cat people are kinda weird tbh). but if you (a) feed strays or (b) let your cat outside, you suck.

thank you for your time.

First of all, doesn’t your municipality have a cat bylaw? If not, advocate For one.

I got 2 cats (and a dog) and they stay inside. I don’t think they suck but I get the issues with them. Cats are usually straight up jerks too. My one cat is one of the worst I have ever known. But, she loves my one daughter and my dog thinks they like to play so I guess I’ll deal with it.

As any cat person will tell you, cats are very independent and strong willed with a mind of their own and around 2,000 years less domesticity on their time clock compared to dogs. Less domesticity makes them more "wild" in nature and behavior, and they are nobody's fool or servant. Cat lovers admire these characteristics and thus this is why they own them as pets.

Unfortunately, some people are into control, and view a cat's behavior as an annoyance, threat, or a reminder/mirror of shortcomings or deficits in their personalities, behaviors and lives in general. I heard it said Adolf Hitler hated cats because he could not control them, and I can say from personal observation that many people (not all, of course) I have met that dislike cats appear to have some issues regarding bravado, hidden self esteem issues and control problems.

tl;dr ; you might be a misogynist.

Are you for real? I hope this post is sarcasm? If not, I think you should try being a bit less judgmental, because you don't appear to be very good with your judgment.

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

You collect VHS tapes, your opinion is moot, and i hiss in your general direction

Actually, I'm quite on point.

Cats are less needy than kids and dogs. That alone makes them automatically better than both.

I like cats cats make you work for their affection. They don't sell out the way dogs do,when you yell at a dog, his tail will go between his legs and cover his genitals, his ears will go down. A dog is very easy to break

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Don't even get started on dogs!

I've never had to sit next to a service cat on a flight before. I mean sure there was that one lady that tried to breast feed her cat but that's endearing.

 

[Konnor]

I don't have a problem with cats but the fucking morons who feed stray cats are annoying as fuck and are making the cat problem even worse.

 

[Methos#1975]

I love cats, but I hate most cat owners. We have four and out dumbass neighbors say we are cruel because we never let them out, in the past 5 years they have had 3 of their cats get smashed on the road in front of our houses.

 

[Lunarorbit]

Dog shit actually attracts rats like crazy. I used to work at a wild bird store and during droughts everyone blamed the bird seed under the feeders for rats when it was just the rats looking for water cause marshes water level lowers.

No one on cape cod picks up their dog shit. People will take the disposable bags, pick it up, and then just leave it on walking trails along conservation property. And no one can jsut have 1 dog they have to have multiple. One of my friends tries to convince me to get a dog every time I see him. Fuck that. I don't even have a cat.

In Portugal every pet has to have a chip, so nobody can abandon them by law either you go to jail or get a big fine. Each city started collecting cats and dogs and done a big campaign for adoption. Problem solved!

I love cats, they are independent and very clever. If a cat is well fed he/she will not hunt.

Sounds like a problem with where you live OP. Blame the people, not the cats.
Lots of people own cats here, but we don't have stray animals roaming the streets.

did you know that cats kill 2.4 billion birds in the USA alone every year? and that they contributed to the extinction of 63 species of birds, mammals, and reptiles in the wild and continue to adversely impact a wide variety of other species?

I wonder how that compares to humans.

The last isn't true. Many well researched studies into cat behaviors and actions have shown that cats will hunt and kill just out of enjoyment

Umm, what?

 

[NinjaBoiX]

it wants to go out and kill other animals for no goddamn reason.

Yeah, they’re definitely not natural born predators by biological and evolutionary design, that’s just insane.

Depends on the cats. Mine just stays still and judges me. She is too fancy to hunt.

sometimes i feel like the only idiot who likes both cats and dogs. it's like when you get one or the other you have to pick a side.

I have a cat because my wife loves them but I’m indifferent to him and leaning towards really disliking him at this point. We have had him for nearly 11 years and I’m sick of the puke, the litter box, the constant whining to go in/out of the back door, the tracked litter everywhere, the scratched furniture, etc. Plus, he’s kind of a mean bastard. He lies in wait at night and attacks us when we walk from the bathroom to the bedroom and has done so for years.

OK maybe my cat is really special, she never done anything like that, the only weird thing she does is trying to get into the closet and sleep there. I do have a garden and the only thing she hunts is for a good spot to get some sun in the morning.

What the hell is going on at your property, you coming out of the closet, your cat going into the closet.
