I hate my cat

[Enid]

I really do

bad one! why

whats it done?

sell it to the kebab shop

where can I start

it scratches the furniture
leaves puffs of hair and burrs everywhere
is a fleabag constantly despite being treated
it hates me
it meows to come in/be fed just when I have sat down

I have no love for that animal AT ALL

Why?? evil,scratchy with a bad attitude??

almost worth getting a dog jsut so the cat buggers off

I'm sure you don't really.
I hadn't seen my cat for 3 days and have to say was fearing the worst.
Sat nearly in tears last night in the garden worried sick about her, she can be a pain a lot of the time but i love her really.
Anyway along she trotted and jumped on my lap for a fuss. I've never been so relieved!

That may not work, our Springer was terrified of our cat. She definetly ruled the roost - we do ahve an escpecially soft and daft dog though.

Yes... unfortunately cats are more like teenagers and dogs like children

Dogs are much harder believe me, and their poo is bigger and smellier.

no sorry I really can't stand it

luckily for her dh loves her and dd1

or she'd be out

can you ignore it?

Our cat when she was alive could be a right cow especially as she got older I swear cats get p.m.t and the menopause!! We calculated once that her and my mother were the same age and they acted just the same..they used to sit on the sofa eyeing us up bitching

Don't know it's male or female but all our male cats seemed to have a nicer attitude in general lol.

enid .... My cat does all those things too

But

• he greets me in the morning
• he sits on my lap when I am sad
• he keeps me company when I am lying in bed reading my book
• he sometimes uses his scratching post

so they are worth it .... truly ...

Why get a dog ...

• It'll need exercising every day
• You'll have to "poopa-scoop"
• they slabber when they get excited !

Need I say more !!!

Maybe it knows you don't like it

It's really sad - I feel most uncharitable towards ours sometimes, but also guilty. I think the whole pet thing is over-rated, unnatural and if even reasonable people get exasperated, you can imagine how animal cruelty happens
This is a very badly written post!
What I mean is, poor animals, taken from their natural lives, bred and interbred for human benefit/whim, unnaturally dependant...
...and the fleas are awful, worse for the animal but still hell for us, the clumps of fur and gritty bits are just something else to deal with/make sure the baby doesn't eat...
..aaaaaargh!

You may have to treat the carpet or rugs if you have any fleas can hang out there for quite a while!

lol TooTicky imagine finding your toddler chewing on a lump of fur uuugggg coughing up baby furballs nassssttyyylol

Cats do know if they are not liked and they will reciprocate unlike a dog who just loves anyone. One of the reasons I ahve always preferred cats, like me a bit snooty and choosy in their company

Do you love your cat yet Enid?

I'm with you Enid. Scrawny little meowing runt brought me 3 dead mice on 3 separate occasions last night and then nipped my ankles cos I was a little tardy with the old meowmix at breakfast time this morning. Can't wait to rehome it with MIL where it'll get fed and talked at non-stop.

cataloguequeen, I have found my dd2 chewing on a horrid, black, spitty clump...shudder. Still, she had a taste for dead woodlice at one point.
Enid, the Frontline drops for the back of the neck work really well. Modern fleas are dreadful - I think they must be getting immune to all the over-used chemical treatments. Neem oil is a good repellant.

ours are lovely indoor moggies. the persian one, found as a stray, is my guy. he sleeps on my side of the bed.

the tuxedo one, a female, is DHs. she sits on his chest whilst he watches TV, purring happily.

LOVE those cats!

If you hate it, talk the others into passing it on. Lots of people are partial to cats. A win-win situation. And cats are completely self-centred buggers so they won't feel uprooted or need therapy for the sense of rejection or anything, if they go to a place with walls to scratch and people to feed them.

(We have two that people passed on.)
