When men are afraid of cuddly things, it is not because we don’t think we’ll connect. It’s because we know we cannot stop ourselves from connecting.

Dad-who-didn’t-want-a-cat sitting there, in love with the cat, isn’t proving himself wrong. He’s proving himself right. This is exactly the situation he wanted to avoid. Being helplessly in love is scary, and animals are so pure that falling in love can’t be avoided.

And who's the human next to him?

Yeah, it's due to the toxoplasmosis.

100% me. I never in my life thought I’d be a cat person, then I moved in with my girlfriend (now wife) and her cat, who quickly became my ride or die.

I like dogs, I just don’t like living with them. I like cats, I just don’t like living with them.

The woman I love, well, she likes living with them.

This is me this morning.

No, this don’t mean I like living with them, but I handle it for her because I love her. Hell, I even love them, but I don’t like living with them.

Like, I really love them. I just don’t like cleaning poo when they screw up or the sneezing because the cat only likes me for some reason. I mean, I’m nice to her because she’s a person too, but I don't really like living with her.

That's my wife. When we meet she hated cats, then afer years of cats videos she was like ok i tolerate them, but were not going to have a cat. After meeting some neighbor cats, she was like ok, you can adopt a cat but I'm not going to love him, after a week she was cuddling with him and thanking me for bringing a kitty to our life.

So you trained your cat to murder you boyfriend as an example to the next?

"Where's your boyfriend, Rebecca?"

I'm pretty much the same. Cats are terrible creatures and I would never intentionally own one. But I'm not going to hold it against my partner's two cats that they are cats, so they get scritches and nap times with me.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

I have 2 of the vile critters now, one I inherited from my ex, the other one just kind of showed up.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

The cats have domesticated you.

Let's just face the truth, they are the "true" ruler of this planet.

I remember my friend once saying "I hate cats" whilst cradling mine in his arm like a baby and stroking his head.

Cats are bad for the planet and horrible for the local ecosystem but if they are already around I will pet them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

What exactly are indoor only cats doing to the planet & ecosystem?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Indoor cats don't destroy the local ecosystem, but they still eat a large amount of meet. I totally forgot about them as cats around here are usually outdoor cats.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Humans are bad for the planet and horrible for the local ecosystem, but if they are already around I will have sex with them.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Just use protection, otherwise there will be even more in a few years.

It's funny to me because it looks more like he fell asleep and the cat put itself there

[–] [email protected] 16 points 7 months ago

I think if the cat was responsible it's ass would be in the guys face lol

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

He fell asleep awfully close to the edge
